As we are quiet at the moment what do you think of the quote?

"Believers today are not under law, either as a means of justification or as
a rule of life, but are justified by grace and are called upon to walk in
grace... Primarily here [Rom. 7:14-25] we have a believing Jew struggling to
obtain holiness by using the law as a rule of life and resolutely attempting
to compel his old nature to be subject to it. In Christendom now the average
Gentile believer goes through the same experience; for legality is commonly
taught almost everywhere. Therefore when one is converted it is but natural
to reason that now one has been born of God it is only a matter of
determination and persistent endeavour to subject oneself to the law, and
one will achieve a life of holiness. And God Himself permits the test to be
made in order that His people may learn experimentally that the flesh in a
believer is no better than the flesh in an unbeliever. When he ceases from
self-effort he finds deliverance through the Spirit by occupation with the
risen Christ."
