"There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit...For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death." Romans 8:1 – 2
People who have come to know Christ Jesus in their hearts know that God has changed them; they understand something phenomenal has happened to them. God never touches anything without the thing being touched is different. With this in mind let us also understand that God does noting half way and He would never leave the keeping of something entirely in the hands of man. We are servants of God who work with and under God. We cannot do Gods work on our own; therefore salvation was never left in the hands of man. The scripture speaks boldly about the Holy Spirit saving people. Romans 8:14 "For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God." All the children of God are led by the Holy Spirit. Some people want to drum-up in their hearts and minds that they somehow brought about their own salvation a part from the Holy Spirit but the scriptures boldly deny that man on his own (a.) wants too, and (b.) can in Romans 3:11 – 19 as well as many other places. I could never know how the Holy Spirit of God can save a soul and the recipient not know that God has visited and change them. God said in verse 1 “There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus…” there in no condemnation ever. The facts are that once one has been redeemed by the Holy Spirit through the blood of Jesus Christ then there can never be any condemnation because the Blood of Jesus Christ has cleansed us from all (not part) of our sins. 1 John 1:7 "But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin." If the blood of Jesus Christ cleanses all our sins then how could they be any condemnation? It is by the “Spirit of life” and in Christ Jesus and His blood that has “made me free from the law of sin and death." And this is why there is NO condemnation. It stands for reason that if one understands life they should understand that a person cannot be unborn. We are given birth by God through the work of the Holy Spirit and the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus Christ. We now the children of God, and not bastards. Hebrews 12:8 “But if ye be without chastisement, whereof all are partakers, then are ye bastards, and not sons.” God will never condemn His own dear children. To think that one can be born in and out of the family of God is also an unthinkable thing. Our God, our Father will never bring wrath or condemnation to those who are His own. 1 Peter 1:5 “Who are kept by the power of God through faith unto salvation ready to be revealed in the last time.”
Psalms 37:23 - 24 "The steps of a good man are ordered by the LORD: and he delighteth in his way. (24.) Though he fall, he shall not be utterly cast down: for the LORD upholdeth him with his hand."
