1 Cor 9:22
To the weak became I AS weak, that I might gain the weak:
Rom 7:1 Rom 7:1
...(for I am speaking (AS one knowing the Law) to them that know the law,)...
1 Cor 9:22
I become all things to all men that I might save some...

Any help?

Nope.
None of those verses have anything to do with the nature of our spiritual condition. See the OP.

Oh well... Having started with Nope
I betcha y'er very next word is None!

The Defense rests, y'er'oner...
The Nope-None Defense!

Do you remember the post they were in reply to?
Do you remember the question you had asked?
Do you remember your presumed answer?

Do you remember Romans 7?
Do you remember citing it?
And asking if Paul was lying or telling the truth?
Do you remember that the OP is TRUTH?

You see, I remember your Romans 7 question and its relationship with Truth...
Bad translation and all...

[18]And I know that nothing good lives in me, that is, in my sinful nature. I want to do what is right, but I can’t.
[19]I want to do what is good, but I don’t. I don’t want to do what is wrong, but I do it anyway.
[24]Oh, what a miserable person I am! Who will free me from this life that is dominated by sin and death?

Do you think Paul was lying or showing false humility?


NOW do you remember?

And can you see how I answered your question?

Paul was neither lying nor displaying false humility, but was becoming as one knowing the Law, because he was addressing those knowing the Law... This is HOW Paul Evangellized the Gospel... Because he was no longer following [eg knowing] the Law, but for the sake of this discussion he became AS one knowing the Law, so as to show them the inability of the Law to bring them Salvation by Grace... And in doing this, he hoped to save some:

And your reply was:

Huh??... Nope... & None

I thank God for you...
