The word law is used differently by Paul depending on the context.
ἀντιστρατεύομαι: (a figurative extension of meaning of ἀντιστρατεύομαι ‘to make war against, to fight against,’ not occurring in the NT) to actively and strongly oppose—‘to be clearly against, to actively oppose.’
βλέπω δὲ ἕτερον νόμον ἐν τοῖς μέλεσίν μου ἀντιστρατευόμενον τῷ νόμῳ τοῦ νοός μου ‘I see a different law (at work) in my body, (one which) opposes the law of my mind’ or ‘… the law of which my mind approves’ Ro 7:23.
“There is tinder enough in the Saint who is nearest to heaven to kindle another hell if God should permit a spark to fall upon it.
In the best of men, there is an infernal and well-nigh infinite depth of depravity.
Some christians never seem to find this out.
I almost wish they might not do so, for it is a very painful discovery for anyone to make.
But it has the beneficial effect of making us cease trusting in ourselves.
Spurgeon.
Why the Son was clothed in our humanity.
The law was good and holy and had good intent.
If a person could live by it they would be saved.
The problem is as hard as we try, no one can.
The law was weakened by our flesh.
But God has devised this wonderful plan in sending His Son in the likeness of our sinful flesh.
He would live out the law by His perfect life, and He would present Himself to the Father as a sin offering for us.
Then by His death He would condemn sin in the flesh.By doing this He satisfied the law, both in its demands for a perfect life, and a death for breaking it.
This is why it was vital He came in human flesh, to do this for us, clothed with our humanity.
John 1:14
