There is therefore now NO CONDEMNATION!!

The Bible tells us in Romans 8:1 There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. The God we serve is such a good, loving God. He wants us to walk upright, knowing that we are the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus! The second that we became born again, God set us free from ALL sin and everything that comes from sin. It says in Romans that sin  no longer has dominion over us. As we read in the new testament we can see so many examples of this "no condemnation" going into effect to the born again believer. Paul killed christians before he was born again and afterwords, he wrote 2/3 of the new testament. Peter denied Christ three times before Jesus' death and crucifixion, and Jesus wanted to make sure Peter knew that He had risen again which shows me He wanted Peter to know He still loved him no matter what and then no time at all later Peter preached on the day of pentecost. Another story that always touches my heart and reminds me of God's great love for his people is in John 8. In John 8 there is a story about a woman caught in adultery. She was caught in the very act and brought into the church where Jesus was preaching. The men that brought her in asked Jesus what they should do with her because according to the law they should stone her to death. Jesus stooped down writing on the ground as to say that He was the one that wrote the law. He turned and told the men, he that is without sin, cast the first stone. All the men left and Jesus was left alone with the woman and said where are those that accuse you ? and she said nobody and Jesus Himself said neither do I condemn you! Go and sin no more! We are given the ability to walk free from sin because we are not condemned by our God. Thank God we don't have to walk around beat up and always thinking of where we messed up but we can walk free knowing we have been made righteous and this causes us to walk free from sin. OUR GOD IS A GOOD GOD! that loves us and made it possible to live a peaceful, free, joyful life. Just like these people in the Bible, we will mess up and do the wrong thing at times but God NEVER changes His mind about us and how much He loves us!  Lift your head up and walk worthy and don't let anyone tell you different.
