students must support their assertions with at least 3 scholarly
citations in current Turabian format. Acceptable sources include the textbooks, other books on
the topic and journal articles. The Bible, concordances and dictionaries are assumed and should
be cited, but do no count toward the three required citations.
Read Romans 7:7-25 and the assigned reading in the textbook(s). Consult other research materials as needed. Consider Paul’s meaning of “I” in that chapter. Be aware of the various suggestions by scholars. Consider the relationship between “I” and the law as developed in chapter 7. Then, identify your view of who Paul meant when he referred to “I.” Include your view of the relationship of “I” to the Mosaic Law and the function that the law has in relationship to the person in the passage. Finally, offer a statement as to your view of the Christian’s relationship to the law. Support your position from the assigned reading, other research, and your own analysis of the passage. Personal doctrine and opinion will be less useful. The position should be adopted based on more objective analysis of the passage
