Revelation of the Word:

THEME: CONDEMNATION

Romans 3:7-8

“Someone might argue, “If my falsehood enhances God’s truthfulness and so increases his glory, why am I still condemned as a sinner?” Why not say—as some slanderously claim that we say—“Let us do evil that good may result”? Their condemnation is just!”

INSIGHT

–Condemnation in Greek is written as katakrima which means an adverse sentence or to judge against. The falsehood propagated by the Romans with regards to sin and the condemnation thereof. Sin results to condemnation and precipitates death. This is what the people who commit suicide experience, condemnation caused by the devil and this results to death. Judas after betraying Jesus having been offered thirty silver coins; condemned himself. He conscious eroded his inside and resolved to return his bride to the chief priests. Unfortunately, he did not look to Jesus as His Savior and resolved to hang himself without repentance. Romans 6:23 reminds us that as much as the wages of sin is death, God has given us the eternal life in Jesus Christ our Lord. Paul’s conclusion from the argument in Romans 1:18 – 3:25 is that all people in the world have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God. For this reason, we are all justified freely by the grace of God through the redemption that came through Jesus Christ. As Judas hang on the tree of condemnation, Jesus hang on the tree of grace presented as a sacrifice of atonement through the shedding of His blood for the sake of our salvation. It is through faith in Christ that we are justified, and we should seek God’s grace and repent our sins that we may be converted and transformed to be more like Him.
