Romans 7:2-6

Romans 7:2-6

[2] For  the woman  which hath an husband  is bound  by the law  to her husband  so long as he liveth;  but  if  the husband  be dead,  she is loosed  from  the law  of her husband.  [3] So then  if,  while her husband  liveth,  she be married  to another  man,  she shall be called  an adulteress:  but  if  her husband  be dead,  free  from  that law;  so that she  no  adulteress,  though she be married  to another  man.  [4] Wherefore,  brethren,  also  are become dead  to the law  by  the body  of Christ;  that  should be married  to another,  even to him who is raised  from  the dead,  that  we should bring forth fruit  unto God.  [5] For  when  in  the flesh,  the motions  of sins,  which  were by  the law,  did work  in  members  to bring  forth fruit  unto death.  [6] But  now  we are delivered  from  the law,  that being dead  wherein  we were held;  that  should serve  in  newness  of spirit,  and  not  in the oldness  of the letter.
