For I know that in me (that is, in my flesh,) dwells no good thing: for to will is present with me; but how to perform that which is good I find not.
All Commentaries on Romans 7:18 Go To Romans 7
Irenaeus of Lyons
AD 202
Is the sign of our salvation, since it was the Lord Himself who saved them, because they could not be saved by their own instrumentality; and, therefore, when Paul sets forth human infirmity, he says: "For I know that there dwelleth in my flesh no good thing".
"to will is present with him, but he finds not means to perform"
