New International Encyclopedia of Bible Words Condemn

Condemnation is an important concept. It is important both theologically and psychologically, for there are many persons whose sense of guilt leads them to fear condemnation. It is important even for those who need not fear condemnation, for too often Christians are tempted to take God’s place and judge (condemn) others!

Condemning ourselves and others. Those who remain outside the circle of God’s grace by their refusal to respond to the gospel (Jn 3:18; 5:24) stand condemned; they are under judgment for their sinful actions (Mt 12:41–42; Jn 5:29; 12:48). But we who have trusted Christ have passed beyond condemnation (Ro 8:1). God views us as being in his Son, and no charge can be lodged against us. Yet two important truths are taught in the Scriptures about believers and condemnation. First, we are to be careful to do what is right so that our consciences will not condemn us for actions we believe are wrong (Ro 14:22; 1 Jn 3:20–21). è Conscience And second, we are not to condemn our fellow believers (Ro 14:3)

Theologically, condemnation can be avoided only by trusting in Jesus, who bears our sin and thus removes us from the position of prisoners before the bar of divine justice. Psychologically, we are to recognize the freedom from condemnation that Jesus brings us and learn to live as forgiven men and women. Released from this burden ourselves, we are to bring the gospel to others so that they may be freed as well.

11) God shows his love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.

If there is nothing else proving the love of God in your life this will always be proof right here.

15) The free gift is not like the trespass. For if many died through one man’s trespass, much more have the grace of God and the free gift by the grace of that one man Jesus Christ abounded for many.
