The flesh is a very important subject when considering Christian perfection. Do not read Romans 7 that you quote above, without connecting it to Romans 8. Paul described his life under the law in Romans 7 when he talked about doing what he didn't want to do. That was a life of condemnation. He concludes this matter by saying that Jesus is the answer to this problem of the flesh, and that those in the Spirit do not have the condemnation that he described in Romans 7 because they do not walk after the flesh. Please do not paint Paul as a carnal man under sinful bondage and condemnation that he describes in Romans 7. That is not right for you to do that. Peace be with you.
