Grace for your spirit
For I know that nothing good dwells in me, that is in my flesh; for the willing is present with me, but the doing of the good is not. Romans 7:18
A study of Romans shows us the effects of the "Two Adams" in our lives. The Adam from the Garden of Eden sinned and brought sin into the world. The 2nd Adam is Jesus Christ. He lived without sin and brought righteousness into the world. If we choose to submit to the 2nd Adam, Jesus Christ, His righteousness can make us righteous, and the power and the penalty of sin can be broken in our body. However as long as we live, we will always have the sinful nature present with us. That is the nothing good that still dwells in us, and can drag us down. With Christ, we can conquer it, and live victorious lives. He is the deliverance from the "nothing good" dwelling in us.
