ROM 7:13

13 So, [if someone were to object] saying, “[The laws that God gave Moses], which are good, ◄resulted in my being separated from God!/did they result in my being separated from God?► [RHQ]” [I would reply], “Certainly they did not [do that]!” But instead, those [laws], which are good, stimulated [my desire to] sin. I knew that the result was that I was separated from God. And also, because I [learned what God had] commanded, [I knew that] what I was doing was [truly] sinful.
