Freedom and Condemnation in Christ

Romans 8 is another change in the Paul's letter to the Romans. In chapters 6 and 7 Paul has been discussing the law and how it is of no benefit for our salvation. He went as far to say that depending on the law was sin! But things move on in chapter 8 as Paul give us great comfort in verse 1 by saying that when we are in Christ we are not condemned for our sin. He then goes on to list the great advantage there is in living life int eh Spirit of God.

But a caution comes at the end of the passage as Paul tells us that anyone who follows Christ will face persecution. So the question comes is it all worth it? The answer is yes, because of the eternal hope we have in Christ.
