What are the "motions of sins" Paul talks about in Romans 7:5?
The motions of sins are the activity of what the Law would condemn us for. Paul describes them as operating in the members, that is the body of flesh, when we were in the flesh without spiritual life. They work to bring forth fruit unto death.
Les teaches that Romans 7:5 speaks of when we were in the flesh, meaning we as yet had no spiritual life. The motions of sins are the activity of what the Law would condemn us for. Being by the Law, they worked in our members, that is the body of flesh, to bring forth fruit unto death. Les explains that the unsaved person lives for physical death, and his unsaved works will come up at the Great White Throne Judgment; that fruit is death.
For when we were in the flesh, the motions of sins, which were by the law, did work in our members to bring forth fruit unto death.
