Rom. 5: 1 "Therefore being justified by faith."
JUSTIFIED = Just or innocent - free.
You will have problems and trials: You don't need condemnation.
Being free you can handle them differently :The DEVIL knows this.
Feeling condemned it's hard to stand:never mind make spiritual progress

Not works - but faith - redemption will cause us to be

1 John 1:9 "If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us."
HE HAS DONE HIS PART - BELIEVE IT - HIS WORD - BY FAITH.

THE KEY IS. ..THE WORD WALK.

THE KEY IS THE WORD LIVE.

- DESIRING - YIELDING - STRIVING TOWARDS BEING AN OVERCOMER -
VICTORIOUS IN OUR WALK.
Not just - "oh well, I'm only human".
Phil. 3:9 "Being found in him, not having mine own rlghteousness, which is of the law, but
that which is through the faith of Christ,
the righteousness which is of God by faith."
LET'S HONOR GOD BY BELIEVING HIS WORD
"WALK LIVE" These words indicate a way of life. - habitual - pattern.
IF YOUR WAY OF LIFE, "IS WALKING AFTER THE SPIRIT - HOLINESS - RIGHTEOUS, THEN THE
DEVIL CAN'T CONDEMN YOU.....HE'S GOT NO GROUNDS TO DO SO." BUT IF YOU ARE
LIVING...WALKING IN SIN YOU WILL FEEL CONDEMNED BECAUSE THE WORD WILL CONDEMN
YOU ....
If you have confessed your sins -- believe by faith Jesus has forgiven you, rise up "BY FAITH",
honor God, bind the devil and "REJOICE" !
