What kind of "condemnation" is a believer exempt from in Romans 8:1?

Upvote:1

The immediate context in Romans 8 gives the answer definitively. "For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death.". The law of sin and death is what the believer is freed from, therefore death is the condemnation being spoken of. Instead of getting what we deserve ( death due to sin) we receive life through the Spirit because Christ died for us.

Although Christians still die, this will be reversed at Christ's coming for the church. Death will not be permanent.

Hope this helps.
