There Is No Condemnation in Christ (Romans 8:1-4)
Romans 8:1-4 · Berean Standard Bible
Romans 8:1-4 declares, 'There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.' What the law was powerless to do, God did by sending his own Son, setting believers free from the law of sin and death. For anyone drowning in guilt or self-condemnation, it is the clear verdict of the gospel: in Christ, you stand un-condemned.
1Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.
2For in Christ Jesus the law of the Spirit of life set you free from the law of sin and death.
3For what the law was powerless to do in that it was weakened by the flesh, God did by sending His own Son in the likeness of sinful man, as an offering for sin. He thus condemned sin in the flesh,
4so that the righteous standard of the law might be fulfilled in us, who do not walk according to the flesh but according to the Spirit.
