Right now, while you are reading these words, drop what you are doing and say, "Lord Jesus, I want to be in You right now. I want every thought, every word, and every action to be found in You. Amen."

This is how the Apostle Paul lived as he was seeking to resolve the conflict between his flesh and his mind.

When you find yourself in Christ Jesus you will be free from all condemnation. Jesus has taken care of your guilt, your condemnation.

But let not the casual, nominal believer think he or she is free from condemnation because of some prior religious act. God is the God of the now. Today is the day of salvation.

The Book of Ezekiel points out a very important Kingdom principle. If the wicked person turns from his wickedness and practices righteousness his wickedness will not be mentioned to him.

If the righteous person turns from his righteousness and practices wickedness his righteousness will not be mentioned to him.

If you think for one moment that these Kingdom principles have changed because we are under "grace" you do not understand the new covenant. The new covenant never alters the principles of the Kingdom, it enables us to adhere to these unchanging reflections of the eternal moral Nature of God.

It always is true that the soul that sins shall die. It always is true that the righteous shall live in God's sight. The Lord Jesus did not come to change God's Nature and will but to forgive us and help us please God. How could it be otherwise?

Get into Jesus now and you can forget about condemnation.

The law of sin and death is the interaction of the Law of Moses with the sin that dwells in our flesh.

The law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus is the interaction of the commandments of the Apostles with the Holy Spirit (as we pray and ask for help and seek to obey the commandments of Christ and His Apostles), leading to the forming of Christ in us and ultimately the eternal dwelling of the Father and the Son in our transformed inner nature all through the Spirit of God. In the meanwhile the righteousness of Christ imputed to us is keeping us free from condemnation.

We can forget about the Law of Moses as long as we are crucified with Christ and risen with Him. But if we are living in the flesh, not abiding in Christ, the Law is present, looking over our shoulder and condemning us to death.

As long as we are walking in the Spirit of God, being sternly obedient to Christ through the Spirit, the Law of Moses cannot condemn us. Since the law of sin and death depends on the accusations of the Law of Moses to function, we now are free from the condemnation that is part of the law of sin and death.

As we shall see as we proceed, the law of the Spirit of Life sets us free not only from condemnation but from the power of sin to control us. However, total deliverance from the power of sin is a process that works over a period of time.

In the meanwhile we remain free from condemnation.

This is part of the resolution of Paul's conflict between his mind and his flesh.
