MZTV 1412: NO MORE CONDEMNATION; Is It Really True?
Christians believe that "nothing, consequently, is now condemnation to those in Christ Jesus" (Romans 8:1) applies only to people who aren't sinning. But the truth is that this can only apply to people who ARE sinning. If no one were sinning the possibility of condemnation could not even enter the conversation. The "nothing" of Romans 8:1 can be only one thing: Sin.
The marvel of "No Condemnation" is based on being "in Christ Jesus" (Romans 8:1). It is NOT based on "those who are no longer sinning." Otherwise, Paul would have said, "Nothing, consequently, is now condemnation to those who are no longer sinning." If no one is sinning, then Paul's use of "nothing" is moot.
There has to be something existent in this context that could POSSIBLY bring one into condemnation, else Paul could not say that "NOTHING is now condemnation. That something is Sin.
This truth REQUIRES that people still be sinning. The key, again, is not the cessation of sin, but being "in Christ Jesus," Who condemned Sin in the flesh (Romans 8:3).
