Romans (Program #16) – The Freedom of the Spirit in Our spirit (2)
There is no reason that Christians should suffer from condemnation of any kind. Rather, they should live a daily life that is victorious according to the Law of the Spirit of life as described in Romans 8. The apostle Paul in Romans 8:1 says, “There is now then no condemnation to those who are in Christ”. If you have ever experienced condemnation or have battled with this monster that attacks Christians everywhere, you will not want to miss today’s Life-Study.
Probably, condemnation is one of the most common negative conditions of believers everywhere. All of us have battled with this at one time or another and it really can be a serious problem for all Christians if they don’t get help. Condemnation is a terrible thing. We should not live a life under condemnation, yet many Christians do. “Wretched man that I am! Who will deliver me from the body of this death?” (Rom. 7:24) This is Paul’s experience of being absolutely condemned and chapter seven is a chapter of condemnation which many Christians identify with very readily. But, thank the Lord that Romans did not end with chapter seven. Paul, in his experience, went on and found the solution to this condemnation and in chapter eight he gives us the answer how to live a life without condemnation.
