-The early church view that the Romans 7 man is a lost man (a view also held by Martyn Lloyd-Jones, Paul Washer, Charles Leiter, Tim Conway and the Apostle Paul) is correct.
-That the usage of present tense in Rom 7 is “historical present tense”, and how many claim it isn’t by the usage of circular reasoning, ignoring the context, and making Rom 7:14 into a separate, new section, despite v14 starting with the word “for” which is a conjunction, directly joining it to verse 13.
-How there is a consistent and repeated pattern from Rom 6:1 which goes all the way to Rom 7:25 of: Question, Strong Denial, Short Answer, and fuller explanation of the short answer.
-How many common interpretations of Romans 7 completely ignore the question being asked by Paul in v13, and give an interpretation that has absolutely nothing to do with the question being asked.
-That the Romans 7 man is clearly not a parallel to Galatians 5.
-That the Christian is a life of victory and not of defeat.
-The dangers of the “wretched Christian” view.
