    A Remedy For Wretchedness

    Contributed by Robert Leroe on Jun 28, 2015
     | 4,484 views

    Paul desperately wants to be delivered from the influence of indwelling sin. He struggles, as do we all, with his corrupt nature. Through Christ we overcome and make progress...yet the more we grow, the more in touch we are with our faults.
