I believe I have covered the main points in the comic. If you see anyone using this verse to say that you are “dead to the Law of Moses”, show them they are using it out of context of what the passage is actually saying. Paul lists clearly what he is referring to.

The rest of chapter 7 wouldn’t make any sense if Paul was saying we are all now dead to the Law. You don’t delight in things you are dead in. You don’t call something dead good and holy. You don’t say something that is dead is spiritual and then encourage people to be spiritual. You don’t go on about wanting to do the dead thing, but sin is keeping you from it. You don’t contrast something dead against sin, which causes death.
