What does the Bible say about the conflict of heart in believers?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible describes an inward struggle in believers due to indwelling sin and spiritual warfare.

In Colossians 2, Paul expresses a conflict of heart due to his concern for the church's understanding of sin and the struggle believers face with indwelling sin. As stated in Galatians 5:17, there are two opposing forces within believers: the flesh and the Spirit. This inward struggle is detailed further in Romans 7, where Paul laments the presence of sin even as he delights in God's law. It is through this struggle that believers experience the need for comfort and encouragement in their faith, recognizing their ongoing battle against sin.
