Why can no one condemn us according to Romans 8?
No one can condemn us because God did not spare His Son but gave Him up to be crucified, proving God is for us. Since we are called, elected, justified, glorified, and forgiven, no one can bring a charge against God's chosen.
Les explains that Romans 8:31 is paramount for the Christian experience. Those who are called, elected, justified, and glorified in God's eyes can rest in the conclusion that if God is for us, no one can be against us. The reason no one can condemn us is verse 32: God did not spare His Son but let Him be crucified, mishandled, and given up. As Philippians shows, Jesus was obedient unto that death. Like Isaac of old, a preview, He did not struggle but in complete obedience was laid upon the altar.
He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things?
