Life in the Spirit,pt1-Rom 8:1-4 (No Condemnation)

"Martin Luther said, "It is impossible for a man to be a Christian without having Christ, and if he has Christ, he has at the same time all that is in Christ. What gives peace to the conscience is that by faith our sins are no more ours, but Christ's, upon whom God hath laid them all; and that, on the other hand, all Christ's righteousness is ours, to whom God hath given it. Christ lays His hand upon us, and we are healed. He casts His mantle upon us, and we are clothed; for He is the glorious Savior, blessed for ever." The apostle Paul continues to unpack the exceeding wealth of being united to Christ by faith. The believer has been justified, declared righteous. He's been freed from the penalty & power of sin, along with the condemnation of the Law. He is now in a state of no condemnation, which can never be altered. And the same Spirit of Life who frees us from sin and death enables us to fulfill the Law in grateful obedience.
