Romans 7:5-7 For, when we were in the flesh, the passions of sins, which were through the law, operated in our members to be bearing fruit to Death."

CLV⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁵ For, when we were in the flesh, the passions of sins, which were through the law, operated in our members to be bearing fruit to Death." ⁶ Yet now we were exempted from the law, dying in that in which we were retained, so that it is for us to be slaving in newness of spirit and not in oldness of letter." ⁷ What, then, shall we declare? That the law is sin? May it not be coming to that! But sin I knew not except through law. For besides, I had not been aware of coveting except the law said, "You shall not be coveting."
