NO CONDEMNATION FOR THE FAITHFUL.

No condemnation for them in Christ fullstop, is what we usually get for Romans eight and verse one but St Paul says that there is actually more to the story.

Condemnation relates to.....doom, guilt and blame, conviction......this is what St Paul says you will feel like if you have been born-again, born of the holy spirit of God / Yahweh and you persist in walking after the flesh and its lusts, rather than walking in the spirit / the holy word of Jesus the Christ, God.

Romans 8:1.....is a spiritual health warning for all disciples of the Christ to heed given by one shepherd, the great physician...... Jesus the Christ..........Ecclesiastes 12:9-14.

Those men and women who stand in the pulpit and teach people that there is no condemnation in Christ when you walk after the flesh ( live in sin ) are simply telling the God of St Paul the apostle that he is a liar and so is Paul who wrote.........Romans 8:1.......... Galatians 1:8-10, Jeremiah 13:1-11.

Romans 8:6....tells us why so many church goers and leaders are so dead spiritually and why they have no peace in their lives. I'm talking about peace that allows a man and a woman to walk the earth without human bodyguards, peace that convinces men and women that he, Jesus will provide somehow, someway and no shifty marketing schemes will be necessary................... .Ecclesiastes 7:27-29.

Many have said to me over the years..........your preaching to the converted!.........my reply being............no I am not, I am talking to an insubordinate churchgoer who needs to hear once again the law of God so that you repent, become as a child and then well and truly be converted..........ref / 1Timothy 1:5-11, James 5:19,20.

ASSUREDLY I SAY TO YOU........UNLESS........YOU ARE CONVERTED AND BECOME AS LITTLE CHILDREN YOU WILL BY.....NO MEANS.....ENTER THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN............MATTHEW 18:3.

Jesus only ever used one ruler when measuring followers, it had two sides to it one said.....many and the other side said few. Many are they that whinge about people condemning them in the churches and outside in todays world. But the truth of the matter is found in the scripture we are studying today...........Romans 8:1.

What St Paul said is pure and perfectly true........there is no condemnation with obedience to the Christ but if you plan on being insubordinate or outright rebellious or a blasphmer of the Christ you will only ever know that God is not pleased with you.............ref / Romans 8:8, 2Timothy 2:1-4, Psalm 119:140.

Every time the law of almighty God is preached you will only ever grind your teeth and feel condemned if you are serving the flesh however the laws of God are sweet to those who walk in the spirit.........Psalm 119:65-72............amen?

Tis so sweet to trust in Jesus!........
Amen.
