Summary Every believer knows the sting of regret and the weight of guilt that can linger long after coming to Christ. In this powerful sermon on Romans 8:1–4, Dr. Michael Easley unpacks one of the most freeing truths in all of Scripture: “There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.” We all live with memories of past failures, yet in Christ, those sins are not just forgiven—they’re washed away in Him.  Dr. Easley walks through Paul’s rich theological argument to show that our freedom from condemnation isn’t based on self-improvement or keeping the law. It’s entirely rooted in the work of Christ and the indwelling power of the Holy Spirit. The same Spirit who raised Jesus from the dead now empowers believers to overcome sin and live righteously. Because God did what the law could never do—He sent His Son to deal with sin once and for all—we can live free from shame and confident in His grace. This message invites listeners to walk not in guilt, but in gratitude, boldly declaring, “I am in Christ.” Takeaways Every believer wrestles with guilt and regret, but the gospel declares us free from condemnation. God’s righteousness demands perfection, yet Christ meets that standard on our behalf. Jesus condemned sin in His own flesh, taking our punishment once and for all. The Holy Spirit empowers believers to overcome the power of sin and live righteously. What the law could never accomplish, God accomplished through His Son. To be “in Christ” means to live with confidence, freedom, and no fear of condemnation. To read the book of Romans, click here.Click here for other Michael Easley Sermons.
