But the free giving of God is not like the wrongdoing of man. For if, by the wrongdoing of one man death came to numbers of men, much more did the grace of God, and the free giving by the grace of one man, Jesus Christ, come to men.

But sin, taking its chance through that which was ordered by the law, was working in me every form of desire: because without the law sin is dead.
Romans 7:9
And there was a time when I was living without the law: but when the law gave its orders, sin came to life and put me to death;
Romans 7:10
And I made the discovery that the law whose purpose was to give life had become a cause of death:
Romans 7:11
For I was tricked and put to death by sin, which took its chance through the law.

Romans 7:21
So I see a law that, though I have a mind to do good, evil is present in me.
Romans 7:23
But I see another law in my body, working against the law of my mind, and making me the servant of the law of sin which is in my flesh.

But the sense of my letter was that if a brother had the name of being one who went after the desires of the flesh, or had the desire for other people's property, or was in the way of using violent language, or being the worse for drink, or took by force what was not his, you might not keep company with such a one, or take food with him.
