Romans 7:6 in Context — Romans 7
4 Assim, meus irmãos, também vós estais mortos para a Lei por meio do corpo de Cristo, para que sejais de outro, daquele que foi ressuscitado dos mortos, a fim de frutificarmos para Deus.
5 Pois, quando estávamos na carne, as paixões dos pecados, que eram pela Lei, operavam nos membros do nosso corpo, a fim de frutificarem para a morte.
6 Mas agora estamos livres da Lei, estando mortos para aquilo em que estávamos presos, para que sirvamos em novidade de espírito, e não na velhice da norma escrita.
7 Que diremos, pois? É a Lei pecado? De maneira nenhuma! Todavia, eu não teria conhecido o pecado, se não fosse pela Lei; porque não conheceria a cobiça, se a Lei não dissesse: Não cobiçarás.
8 Mas o pecado, aproveitando-se do mandamento, operou em mim toda variedade de cobiça. Pois sem a Lei o pecado [estaria] morto.
