The Tenth Commandment
Series CWP - Galatians
You will not begin to make progress in your Christian life until you understand this. "I know that in me, that is in my flesh, there dwelleth no good thing," Paul says. But this is not the slavery of force or violence to the man, but a willing slavery. We sin because we choose sin. The bondage is so pervasive and so deceitful that we do not even realize sin's presence, unless our eyes are opened by the Holy Spirit. "There is a way that seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death," Solomon said. Paul did not consider himself a sinner when he persecuted the church. No, he thought that he was doing God service. Without the law, Paul would have remained in his state of self-congratulation and contentment. He was "alive without the law," as he put it. But the law woke him from his slumbers and drove Him to Christ.
