Romans 8:1 (NKJV) 1 There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit.<\/p>\n

Happy Friday! Let\u2019s wrap up the work week with one more short study on some verses from Romans.<\/p>\n

On Monday and Wednesday we discussed the power of God\u2019s grace, faith in Christ and how applying them to our lives will help us obey God and break free from habitual sin that leads to death.<\/p>\n

Today, let\u2019s talk about the results of obeying God, and what that means for us.<\/p>\n

Verse 1 above states that there is no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.<\/p>\n

Let\u2019s dig into that.<\/p>\n

Condemnation: the finding of fault, guilt or an unfavorable judgment. Denunciation, disapproval.<\/p>\n

Now, some translations don\u2019t include the second half of verse 1, \u201cwho do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit\u201d.<\/p>\n

That phrase is basically a qualifier that helps us better understand what the first half of the verse means.<\/p>\n

But let\u2019s look and see what is meant by the first<\/em> half of verse 1 so we can get a deeper understanding of what it really means, even without that second half.<\/p>\n

Being \u201cin Christ Jesus\u201d insinuates or infers a relationship; something that is genuine and active, not just a casual, occasional or intermittent on-again-off-again faith that is not visible, active or being genuinely walked out in one\u2019s life.<\/p>\n

If we are \u201cin Christ Jesus\u201d, we have a functioning, healthy relationship with Christ. Our life will reflect it by the fact that we walk \u201caccording to the Spirit\u201d, not according to the flesh.<\/p>\n

We can take heart in the fact that Christ has paid the price for our sins. And because our faith in Him sets us free from our old, sinful ways, we are no longer condemned.<\/p>\n

We have been found not guilty!<\/p>\n

This is amazing when we consider who and what we used to be and who God has made us.<\/p>\n

We were rescued from death and brought into eternal life through His blood and His sacrifice.<\/p>\n

This in itself is miraculous and unexplainable by natural standards.<\/p>\n

Only the blood of Christ can do this.<\/p>\n

Thank you, Father, we give you glory and honor for your incredible grace over our lives. Amen.<\/p>\n
