So now there is no condemnation for those who belong to Christ Jesus. For the power of the life – giving Spirit has freed you through Christ Jesus from the power of sin that leads to death.

[Romans 8: 1 – 3]

Condemnation is that awful feeling we get when we do something wrong. We start feeling guilty and shameful. Condemnation can trap us from seeing and experiencing true joy and hope. This feeling will follow you and make you feel unworthy.

God no longer condemns us, for when Jesus died on the cross, He exchanged all of our sin and guilt for a new life with God. Jesus set us free, and He doesn’t condemn. Don’t condemn yourself for it is a lie of the enemy!

We are saved and changed by grace, not condemnation!

When God wants to deal with issues in your life, He will convict you, He won’t condemn you!

Much love,
