There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus(Romans 8:1)
A lot of us live with a hidden fear that God is angry at us. Somewhere, sometime,some Sunday school class or some television show convinced us that God has a whip behind his back, a paddle in his back pocket, and he's going to nail us when we've gone to far. No concept could be more wrong! Your Savior's Father is very found of you and only wants to share his love with you.
Could you use the genuine fresh air of God's forgiveness? Would you love to stand in the approval of God again? How do you do it? By genuinely admitting to God that you've made a mistake, knowing that God loves you more then he hates your mistakes. And knowing that he will forgive those mistakes.
Does the Word of God say "There is limited condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus"? No, Does it say, "There is some condemnation..."? No, It says, "There is no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus." Think of it....regardless of our sin, we are not guilty!
