Romans 7:7-25
Greg Blosser
Contrary to some of our hopes, becoming a Christian does not automatically and fully remove the influence of sin on our lives. Likewise, our forgiveness isn’t a license to remain in our sin-infested state. In the second part of Romans 7, the Apostle Paul writes about our sanctification — our being made holy in Christ — and how it is an “already/not yet” reality. “Already” in the sense that we have been made holy in God’s sight; “not yet” in the sense that sin, while no longer our master, still rears its ugly head if it’s given the opportunity.
Thanks be to God, he’s still working on us.
