NO CONDEMNATION

SCRIPTURE READING - 📖 Romans 8:1-2

There is therefore no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit. For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the law of sin and death.

Additional Verses

📖 Psalm 32:1-11; Luke 19:1-10; John 8:1-11; 1 Thessalonians 5:1-22

The Old Testament is the law of sin and death while the New Testament is the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus. The New Testament may also be defined as the Law of Grace. When God created humankind in the beginning, in Genesis 1 and 2, there was no condemnation at all. The law of sin and death was not there at all. Man lived in the very presence of God. He could talk and walk and fellowship with God. It was only when man and woman disobeyed God in Genesis 3:1-24 because they listened to another voice, and I mean to the deceptive voice of Satan that man became condemned. Romans 5:12 says, “Therefore, just as through one man sin entered the world, and death through sin, and thus death spread to all men, because all sinned.” When Jesus Christ came into this world, He came to redeem humankind from the condemnation of sin and death. He sacrificed Himself to give us a second chance. Jesus Christ became Himself the condemned judge. Through His humiliation we were exalted. 2 Corinthians 5:21 says, “For He made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him.” Jesus Christ came to give to every believer His very Own life and this is the righteousness of God. He gave us a second birth making us children of God. John 1:12- 13 says, “But as many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, to those who believe in His name; who were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.” When the Pharisees and the scribes brought the woman who had been caught in the very act of committing adultery to Jesus Christ, He said to her accusers, “He who is without sin among you, let him throw a stone at her first.” (John 8:7). No one was able to condemn her because she had come face to face with the Law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus. Romans 8:31 says, “If God is for us, who can be against us?” No one can harm you because you are protected by Jesus Christ who now dwells inside you. Where the Law of the Spirit of life in Christ is present, there cannot be any condemnation at all. Alleluia!

Prayer

Thank You LORD Jesus Christ for making me Your child and I pray that I may be always under Your Law of Grace where there is no condemnation at all. In Jesus Christ’s name I pray. Amen.
