His Circumcision Cannot Make Him Righteous Series

Contributed by John Lowe on May 4, 2018

There Is Now No Condemnation For Those Who Are In Christ Jesus.

Contributed by Barnabas Park on Jan 23, 2026

Many Christians live their daily lives believing in forgiveness but still feeling condemned in their hearts. In Romans 8:1–4, Paul declares a truth so powerful that it frees believers not only from sin’s penalty, but also from the burden of living under constant guilt.

Paul coinues with the question "What then in the purpose of the law?"
