"Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus" Romans 8:1.
Sin brings about condemnation for a conscience. When we were without Christ, that was rightfully on us. We were condemned and most of us felt condemned. Some felt it more, some less. However, we have really great news. Christ took our condemnation on himself. When He hung on the cross, the judgment of God and condemnation for the sins of the entire world fell on him. He took it, so that you and I would never have to experience that again.
If you believe in Christ, you are in Him, and no condemnation belongs to you. You were freed from that on the cross. What a great gift God has given to us in Jesus. He no longer condemns us. He punished sin once and for all in Christ Jesus. You sins were on Him. He cannot punish the same sin twice, otherwise He would not be a just God. But He is a just God, and our condemnation fell on Jesus. So, no more condemnation for us. That is really a good news for us.
