Romans 8:1 isn’t telling Christians that sin doesn’t matter or that we should ignore conviction. Paul is making a declaration about the believer’s standing before God: “There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.”Romans 8:1 Don’t stop at one verse. Read Romans 5:1, Romans 7:24–25 and Romans 8:1–4 and watch Paul’s argument build.
