Romans 8:1 (NRSV) — 1 There is therefore now no condemnation 

for those who are in Christ Jesus.  

Romans 8:1 (The Message) — 1 With the arrival of Jesus, the Messiah, 

that fateful dilemma is resolved. 

Those who enter into Christ’s being-here-for-us 

no longer have to live under a continuous, low-lying black cloud.

Romans 8:1 (GW) — 1 So those who are believers in Christ Jesus 

can no longer be condemned.

Romans 8:1 (NCV) — 1 So now, those who are in Christ Jesus 

are not judged guilty.

Friends!

When you step out in faith

into a new phase of life

be aware that the enemy of your soul

will seek to thwart your progress.

He does this mostly through 

lies, innuendo and negative self-talk.

Take captive every thought!

Believe the BEST about yourself

because God has designed 

only the BEST

for you!

Amen.
