This is Namma for Christ with the
three hundred seventh inspirational message dated Wednesday, September 2nd,
2026. The title of this message is “O Come to the Altar – Rom. 8:1-2 – No
Condemnation; Only Love”.
The first five words of this message’s
title are also the words of the title
of the below anointed song/video, “O Come to the Altar” (with lyrics)” as
performed by “Elevation Worship”.
The below passage of scripture (that accompanies this
message) is from the first and second verses of the eighth chapter of Romans.
Romans 8:1-2
New King James Version - (NKJV)
8 There
is therefore
now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who do not walk
according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit. 2 For the law
of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has made me free from the law
of sin and death.
The title of this
message includes the words – “No Condemnation; Only Love” –
which is the “title” of the late
Dr. Charles Stanley’s “In Touch” Daily Devotional for (July 16th, 2026)
– which I have included below (Dr. Charles Stanley passed away on 4/18/23).
Dr. Charles Stanley was the founder of the “In Touch” daily devotional. Those
who work on behalf of this daily devotional are continuing its publication - as
it ministers to readers around the world. I recently read the below message and
wanted to share this message in “Namma for Christ”.
No Condemnation; Only Love
Romans 8:1-2
The
Father’s love for His children is so wide, long, high and deep that we can
never fully fathom its extent (Eph. 3:14-19 – see verses below). God’s love is constant, unchanging,
and eternal. But sometimes our feelings tell us otherwise.
Ephesians 3:14-19
New King James Version - (NKJV)
14 For
this reason I bow my knees to the Father of our Lord Jesus
Christ, 15 from
whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named, 16 that He would grant
you, according to the riches of His glory, to be strengthened with
might through His Spirit in the inner man, 17 that Christ may dwell in
your hearts through faith; that you, being rooted and grounded in
love, 18 may
be able to comprehend with all the saints what is the width and length and
depth and height— 19 to
know the love of Christ which passes knowledge; that you may be
filled with all the fullness of God.
We
frequently correlate our behavior and divine love. When we have been good, we
believe that we’re loved by God. But when we sin or make mistakes, we sometimes
question how much He cares for us. After a series of missteps, we might
conclude He disapproves of us far more often than He loves us.
The
truth is, there is no condemnation for those who are in Christ (Romans 8:1 – see above verse). God is our loving Father, who
sometimes uses discipline to bring us back into alignment with His will (Hebrews 12:7 – see below verse). He also allows us to experience the
consequences of sin. However, divine condemnation is not one of them.
Hebrews 12:7
New International Version - (NIV)
7 Endure
hardship as discipline; God is treating you as His children. For what
children are not disciplined by their father?
Everything
that separated us from God was dealt with at the cross. Because of His great
sacrifices, we can know God intimately and experience His presence forever –
not as condemned sinners, but as beloved children.
