I. Question: Is the Law Sinful? (7); Answer: Certainly not! The law is holy, just, and good (12), and spiritual (14).
II. Our Difficulty is Not with the Law. Our Real Problem Since the Fall is that We Have Two Sources of Contentment (8-11)
A. One source of contentment rooted in covetousness: Change the law of holiness into the law of sin; make covetousness our law, and then we could be happy in the sin we love (8-10)
B. Another source of contentment rooted in Christ (the only source of true, holy, and lasting contentment): Live in the freeing power of Christ’s work in the gospel; bring delight and duty together, and then we will be truly happy in obedience to the law we love (8:1-4)
