SUMMARY

In this sermon, Pastor Dragoon discusses the relationship between law and sin, using Romans 7 as a reference. He explores the concepts of darkness, lawlessness, and personal transformation. Dragoon emphasizes the significance of understanding God's holiness, which reveals our own sinfulness and leads to repentance. He clarifies that the law is not the issue, but our sin is. Jesus, according to Dragoon, came to fulfill the law and provide victory over sin and death. He encourages listeners to surrender to Jesus for transformation.
