1 Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus, who are not walking according to the flesh. 2 For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has freed me from the law of sin and death. 3 For though this was impossible under the law, because it […]

1 I am speaking the truth in Christ; I am not lying. My conscience offers testimony to me in the Holy Spirit, 2 because the sadness within me is great, and there is a continuous sorrow in my heart. 3 For I was desiring that I myself might be anathemized from Christ, for the sake […]
