What was sin’s response to the light of the Law of Moses?...

The deceitfulness of covetousness and lust kept on drawing Paul into behaviour contrary to God’s commandment. In this way, covetousness was able to reveal itself as Paul’s true master, to demonstrate that Paul was not in control of his own behaviour.

All sin has its source in Satan. Satan demands the worship of mankind. All sin is the worship of Satan, an acknowledgment of our continuing servitude.

Sin uses the Law of Moses to establish its own claim over human beings, deceiving them, putting them to death by bringing them under guilt and separating them from God by the Law.
