highlighted Romans 7:13 NLT
But how can that be? Did the law, which is good, cause my death? Of course not! Sin used what was good to bring about my condemnation to death. So we can see how terrible sin really is. It uses God’s good commands for its own evil purposes.

Do not be afraid of them, or I will make you look foolish in front of them.
