Verses 14:24 says this.

14 For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God.
15 For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father.
16 The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God:
17 And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together.

18 For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us.
19 For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God.
20 For the creature was made subject to vanity, not willingly, but by reason of him who hath subjected the same in hope,
21 Because the creature itself also shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God.
22 For we know that the whole creation groaneth and travaileth in pain together until now.
23 And not only they, but ourselves also, which have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, waiting for the adoption, to wit, the redemption of our body
Why is the believer who sins "condemned" when there is "no condemnation" in Christ?

There is no condemnation for those who are in Christ...because they have been Born Of The Spirit, therefore in the righteousness of Christ.

Whoever sins has not been Born Of Gods seed @GracePeace ?

Because it’s not there, I’ve just posted the verses.
Everything I've said is in Scripture.

Romans 8:1Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.
Romans 14:23But whoever has doubts is condemned if he eats, because the eating is not from faith. For whatever does not proceed from faith is sin.

Yeah, so, again, we're back to square one: why is the believer who sins "condemned" (Romans 14:23) when there's no condemnation for those in Christ (Romans 8:1)?

You have nowhere addressed Romans 14:23.

Please quote Romans 14:23 and explain why the believer who sins is condemned when there is no condemnation for those in Christ.
Whoever sins has not been Born Of Gods seed?.. @GracePeace .which means what?

There is no condemnation for those who are in Christ...they are the Born Again believers...chosen by God.

Quote Romans 14:23 and explain where I've gone wrong.
It’s not about you.

It’s about God’s word.

There is no condemnation for those in Christ Jesus because they have been Born Of God’s seed..

Therefore under grace.....those who sin have not been Born Of Gods seed.

All right. You've provided your "answer".
We'll see if anyone believes it.
Thanks for interacting.

if one has been Born Of Gods seed, His word says they don’t sin.

A Born Again is not condemned to eternal damnation, because they have been Born Again of Gods seed.

OK Everyone can read your reply.

The question posed has been as to how to reconcile Romans 8:1, which states there is no condemnation for those in Christ, with Romans 14:23, which states that the believer who sins is "condemned"; your answer is that believers never sin.

OK We'll see if anyone finds it convincing.

Everyone who makes an argument here is claiming it is what "God's Word" says.
We'll see if anyone finds what you claim "God's Word" says convincing.

I have claimed nothing.

I posted the word of God...

There is no convincing from me, ..it’s the word of God that speaks to our heart/ spirit....I am nothing and know nothing without the Holy Spirit.

Only the Living witness in my spirit can witness Gods truth to out heart/ spirit...that is the Holy Spirit.he is Gods Living witness...not me!

Everyone who makes assertions here claims it is what "God's Word" says.
You say "this is what God's Word says", and I say "this is what God's Word says".
The difference comes down to whether people are going to believe that what ever we claim has made more sense of the Scripture.

I have posted scripture...Gods word...it can’t be denied as it’s His truth..

We make sense of scripture in the spirit not in our own human understanding..as the Bible is a spiritual Book and needs to be understood in our spirit...that’s why we need to be Born Again to understand these spiritual truths...we need God’s Living witness ,His Holy Spirit testifying Gods truth to our hearts/ spirit.

For without the Spirit we would have no understanding of his written word.anyway I’m done for now...catch you later....let’s see what @CadyandZoe has to say.
