Romans
- Romans 7:18For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh,) dwelleth no good thing: for to will is present with me; but how to perform that which is good I find not.I know that nothing good lives in me, that is, in my flesh; for I have the desire to do what is good, but I cannot carry it out.
- Romans 7:21I find then a law, that, when I would do good, evil is present with me.So this is the principle I have discovered: When I want to do good, evil is right there with me.
