WHAT I KNOW
Today's reading: Romans 7-8

"I felt fine when I did not understand what the law demanded. But when I learned the truth, I realized I had broken the law and was a sinner, doomed to die." Romans 7:9 NLT

"For not there is no condemnation for those who belong to Christ Jesus." Romans 8:1 NLT

I think, for me, one of the greatest explanations of these two verses come from the following snippet I copied from a website...

Conviction is known in the Bible as Godly sorrow. God's Word tells us that Godly sorrow is what leads us to repentance (Romans 2:4). Condemnation tells you, "You are such a failure! Look at what you did!" while conviction tells you, "Come to me... and I will forgive you!"

God placed within me, at salvation, the Holy Spirit which helps me keep track of my heart condition, allowing me to feel conviction when a sin permeates my relationship with God. He desires me to set our relationship to rights.

Satan wants to condemn me, belittle me, help me dig a deeper pit. Satan is content with me having sins separate me from my God.

It is up to me as to which I choose to listen to.
