25 Thanks be to God— through Jesus Christ our Lord!
Before I can utter "Thanks be to God" in verse 25, I have to recognise the Law and my Wretchedness under the Law.
If I have never seen my utter wretchedness with the law, what thanks am I giving?
7 What shall we say, then? Is the law sin? Certainly not! Indeed I would not have known what sin was except through the law. For I would not have known what coveting really was if the law had not said, Do not covet.
Do I hate the law? No!
12 So then, the law is holy, and the commandment is holy, righteous and good.
The Law makes me really my wretchness and thankful for the Cross.
