Welcome to the Bible Study. I'm Stephen Lawson, President of One Passion Ministries.

And each week I will teach verse by verse through the passage of scripture

so that you can better understand the word of God

and put it into practice in your life. Join me now as we look together into this

section of the Bible. Okay, we are in Romans 7 and we're going to look at verses 15 through 20, Lord

willing. And while you're turning to these verses, I do want to welcome everyone who's watching by

live stream and I'll have to say everywhere I went on this trip, people just took it upon themselves to come up to me and tell me what this Bible study has meant for their Christian life, men and women and teenagers and older people,

pastors, laymen, everywhere I went.

And so I'm not even mindful.

Oh, okay, there's a woman, is that your wife back there?

With a ball cap on?

So, thank you, Kent. So, welcome to our Bible study and these are some interesting verses so we're going to have to keep

our eye on the ball here.

but I'm doing the very thing I hate.

But if I do the very thing I do not want to do,

I agree with the law confessing that the law is good. So now no

longer am I the one doing it but sin which dwells in me.

For I know that nothing good dwells in me,

that is in my flesh.

For the willingness present in me,
