And it is the reason why they condemn the world that is guilty of doing the same as that it does itself. It believes it deserves hell for its sin, but thinks believing in Jesus saves them from it(when it is the law of sin and death they have been saved from, of which it is in fear of) So no change occurs in it, just self righteous judgement and condemnation towards all that are hell bound in its mind.

The victory of Calvary is not escaping hell, but victory given to us over the law of sin and death. The spiritual minded man has is eyes on the righteousness of Jesus Christ, and not on the law of sin and death,which will cause you to hate yourself and condemn others.




14We know that the law is spiritual; but I am unspiritual, sold as a slave to sin. 15I do not understand what I do. For what I want to do I do not do, but what I hate I do. 16And if I do what I do not want to do, I agree that the law is good. 17As it is, it is no longer I myself who do it, but it is sin living in me. 18I know that nothing good lives in me, that is, in my sinful nature.c For I have the desire to do what is good, but I cannot carry it out. 19For what I do is not the good I want to do; no, the evil I do not want to do—this I keep on doing. 20Now if I do what I do not want to do, it is no longer I who do it, but it is sin living in me that does*it.

21So I find this law at work: When I want to do good, evil is right there with me. 22For in my inner being I delight in God’s law; 23but I see another law at work in the members of my body, waging war against the law of my mind and making me a prisoner of the law of sin at work within my members. 24What a wretched man I am! Who will rescue me from this body of death?

This is the testimony of most Christians if they are honest.


25Thanks be to God—through Jesus Christ our Lord!


Romans 7

The Lord told Christians to Love the Lord with all your heart and to love the neighbor as your self ...... were the dark spirit is the accuser , So as the law that the Lord gave as an outline so we can Judge ourself and correct ourself into the good character of the Lord ....still other people in the world and of the Lord continues to live a life against the law that the Lord gave us for our discernment ...... So as we love the neighbor as ourself , then we are Not called to judge or condemn our neighbor ,Because then there would be No love for the neighbor, So By the commandment `love your neighbor ` contradicts the judgment of the law on others . So through the spirit of Christ, Christians are not allowed to judge others as there would be No love and the commandment would be broken..... So a new rule came with the new covenant of the new creation of Christ is that ,we are not under the law of sin and death......... But Lord Jesus Christ is our judge and if He judges people to be lost or saved that it is His judgment and this is His authority and Not Christians ....
