No one can legitimately condemn a Christian!!! Romans 8:34, “Who is he that condemneth? It is Christ that died, yea rather, that is risen again, who is even at the right hand of God, who also maketh intercession for us.” You may murder 500 people and be sentenced to 1,750 years in prison here on earth, but if you are a redeemed child of God, in God's sight you are as sinless as Jesus Christ! That is the miracle of imputed righteousness, which is obtained BY FAITH alone! Romans 4:5-6, “But to him that worketh not, but believeth on him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness. Even as David also describeth the blessedness of the man, unto whom God imputeth righteousness without works.” Isn't that beautiful? GOD IMPUTETH RIGHTEOUSNESS WITHOUT WORKS!!! That means God the Father credits all of His only begotten Son's righteousness to us, simply because we are relying upon Him. Anyone who relies upon Jesus Christ—Who died on the cross, was buried and raised up the third day—has their sins remitted and has eternal life. Acts 10:43, “To him give all the prophets witness, that through his name whosoever believeth in him shall receive remission of sins.”
