Verse 25

25. I thank… through Jesus Christ Of course this verse declares that Christ was the deliverer from this carnal and deadly incubus.

Two parts of his nature adhered to two different laws. There was once a false harmony by the complete and quiet predominance of carnality; the Spirit, revealing the law, produced the discord; the Spirit, through Christ, subduing sin, bestows a harmony divine, and this harmony peals forth in a paean in the opening of the next chapter.
