MAIN TALK UNDERSTANDING GOD THE SCRIPTURES

Daily Bible Thought > Roman's Chapter Seven Verse 24

Rom.7:24 What a wretched man I am! Who will deliver me out of the body of this
death?

Paul now faced his greatest challenge of his life, the Law was not going to save him. In fact, it would enslave him more to his sins; nothing that he had practice under Law his whole life could bring him merit before God. He could not appeal to a higher court of
justice; he was condemned to death by the highest court of justice in the universe.

All of his deepest desires were futile; all of the years in practicing Law was of no value in removing one ounce, iota, of sin from his members; he was a condemned man. And no amount of pleading with God was going to change his judgment.

Found in this condition Paul stated the absolute truth all humans find themselves in:

“what a wretched man I am!” ‘What hope do I have, all my plans, all my works, all my wrangling over Law; has left me wretched. I have nothing to offer to God.’ Law, knowledge, wisdom, even fear of God, cannot save him; the prophets have failed him, and his own understanding had deceive him into death; where indeed could Paul
turn for salvation?
