The New John Gill Exposition of the Entire Bible Romans 7:17
Now then, it is no more I that do it…
This is another
inference, deduced from what is before said, that since he did not
approve, but hated what he did, and willed the contrary, it was not
he as spiritual, as born again, as a new man, a new creature, that
did it; see (1 John 3:9) . He says,
But sin that dwelleth in me;
the old man, the carnal I, the evil
present with him, the law in his members; which not only existed in
him, and wrought in him, and that at times very strongly, but dwelt
in him, had its abode in him, as it has in all regenerate persons,
and will have, as long as they are in the body.
