Romans 7:10

Copyright Ó 2016 J. Neely
Romans 7:10

10 And [kai] the commandment [entole], which [ho] was ordained to [eis] life [zoe], I [moi] found [heurisko] [houtos] to be unto [eis] death [thanatos].   KJV-Interlinear

10 The very commandment that promised life proved to be death to me. ESV

The very commandment, refers to the Mosaic law. Throughout the Old Testament there are many passages which point to the intention of the law in producing life and happiness.

Many passages state that if you keep my statutes and my judgments, then you shall live.

But all of these passages point to man’s incapability of keeping Gods statutes and judgments, and therefore life by them is not an option.

The actual result of this effort, is death.

And that actual result of death is because of man’s incapability of meeting all of the spiritual requirements of a perfect life by means of his own efforts.

And again the emphasis is that the law is not the answer, but the Savior is.





These studies, are a part of the massive daily study web site at DailyBibeStudy.Org, that is easily accessible, and are written, so that you can come to Christ if you have not done so already, and therefore not be lost forever. 

And if you have already believed in Christ, then these studies are written so you can learn and understand and grow in your spiritual life, so that you can come to the full knowledge of Christ, so that you can fulfill your meaning and purpose in life as God intended for you, and so you can qualify for a phenomenal eternal reward which you will have forever. 

To ignore this opportunity to pursue a daily study means you will be incomplete, unfulfilled and you will lose out, big time.

The Daily Bible Study is online, making it possible as never before in all of human history, to advance in ones relationship with God, through Christ, and to complete yourself beyond your imagination.

But you have to decide to make that commitment.  No one else can study for you.  You have to do that yourself.
