Rom 7:25
I thank God through Jesus Christ our Lord. So then with the mind I myself serve the law of God; but with the flesh the law of sin.

Q - Does this mean we no longer have to obey God's law?
A - No, Paul is referring to the fact that there is a struggle inside of between the Holy Spirit and our sinful desires which he calls our flesh. (Mat 26:41) Watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation: the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.
