로마서(Rom) 7장

4. 그러므로 내 형제들아 너희도 그리스도의 몸으로 말미암아 율법에 대하여 죽임을 당하였으니 이는 다른 이 곧 죽은 자 가운데서 살아나신 이에게 가서 우리가 하나님을 위하여 열매를 맺게 하려 함이라

4. So, my brothers and sisters, you also died to the law through the body of Christ, that you might belong to another, to him who was raised from the dead, in order that we might bear fruit for God.


6. 이제는 우리가 얽매였던 것에 대하여 죽었으므로 율법에서 벗어났으니 이러므로 우리가 영의 새로운 것으로 섬길 것이요 율법 조문의 묵은 것으로 아니할지니라

6. But now, by dying to what once bound us, we have been released from the law so that we serve in the new way of the Spirit, and not in the old way of the written code.


I got freed from the law of God through which I had been judged and through which I knew that I was a salve of sins. However, I feel like I am still in that status, but in the opposite position, I mean, in the other side of judging others through the law. Honestly, I didn't intend to judge them from the first beginning, but when I am not fully in the Holy Spirit, I return to serve the old way of the written code, the law of God and God also didn't intend me to do, either.


In the law, it seems that there is no peace and joy , as no one could be perfectly behaving, though they seemingly look good and perfect. And it also leads me to the mind of hatred and betrayed feeling with aversion and agony etc.


 Then, why am I often using the old and useless way without bearing any fruits to God? I realized that it is because I am often bound to the sinful nature and sinful passions aroused and controlled by the law and sadly, it works well within me. As a result, it could bear fruits for death to me (7:5).
