Episode description
Christians debate the "man of Romans 7" - Is he a believer? Is he an unbeliever? Most of the disagreement comes from the theological presuppositions brought to the text. The most popular view today is that Paul is describing a Christian's battle against his flesh, which resonates because we all know what it's like to "do what we don't want to do." But if we look at the actual context and flow of Paul's argument, this can't be what he's describing. Josh and Doug explain why in this episode.
