No Condemnation in Christ

The words of Romans 8:1 continue to be an immense comfort to those sin-weary humans whom God has caused to be born again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ. Sin is vanquished and victory is assured, so we can live, protected by the power of God and empowered by His Spirit. We are able then, to live to the fullest every moment of life. Even if our hearts condemn us, because God is greater than our hearts and knows all things. He knows our hearts and the forgiveness He has given to free us. It is because of Christ and for His glory that He acts and grants us new life. Since our eternity is assured the present is meaningful, since it is lived in light of eternity.

Praise the Father who purposed our redemption; praise the Son Jesus Christ who purchased it; and praise the Spirit who works it out.
