Peter Brandon discusses the struggle every believer faces with sin, as illustrated in Romans 7, emphasizing the conflict between the flesh and the spirit. He explains that the 'body of death' represents the sinful nature that clings to us, much like a corpse, and highlights the importance of recognizing this conflict to achieve victory over sin. Brandon shares personal experiences and encourages believers to acknowledge their struggles, as this conflict is a sign of salvation and the work of the Holy Spirit. He emphasizes that true victory comes not from willpower but through the Spirit, urging believers to mortify the flesh and live according to the Spirit's guidance.

Theodore Epp emphasizes the conflict between the flesh and the Holy Spirit, illustrating how they oppose each other and create a stalemate for Christians. He warns against trying to overcome the flesh through our own efforts, which is futile and akin to asking the Devil to defeat himself. Epp encourages believers to 'cast their vote for victory' by choosing to walk, be led, and live in the Spirit, which leads to true victory over the flesh. He concludes that allowing the Holy Spirit to guide our lives results in a victorious Christian life filled with peace and life.
