A viewer asks:
"Hey, could you help me understand Romans 7:14-24? Is Paul talking about before he converted, or after? How I am reading it at the moment is it's after conversion where Paul is struggling, but I have a friend who is reading it as before conversion. He said it's because he doesn't see how Paul could possibly be talking about after conversion because of the freedom he speaks of in Romans 6. So, am I wrong?"
