"There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus," Romans 8:1.
Here it is! All the wrong, all the evil-doing (on purpose or ignorantly); all the guilt-bearing; all the just condemnation; all the consequences of wrong, guilt, condemnation, and death. Gone! All gone! The central result of God at work in Jesus: because of God's work in Jesus: because of the Lamb of God: No condemnation! No condemnation. The Spirit's law of life has set humans free from sin and death. God has worked! God has done! God has condemned sin in the flesh (through the slain Lamb), and has made humans fully righteous. Wow. What humans? the humans who walk in step with the Spirit of Christ living within them. Wow. No condemnation for those in Christ Jesus. Wow!
Awed with a brother or sister, together, we bow before this God who delivers liberty to the captives, in Jesus. And, together, we bow before the just Deliverer. Redeemer. Friend.
