We Live in Confidence instead of Condemnation V. 8

Observations:

We feel condemned because Satan uses past guilt and present failures to make us question what Christ has done for us. There is now no condemnation because the Holy Spirit redemptively corrects us to help us grow (sanctification). The evil one condemns us in an attempt to cause distance and doubt between us and God and other believers.

We were condemned – past tense.

Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.

You can’t condemn people who are in Christ Jesus because Christ is not condemned.
