Who is he who condemns? It is Christ who died, yes rather, who was raised from the dead, who is at the right hand of God, who also makes intercession for us.

Verse Takeaways

Four Pillars of Security

Commentators explain that Paul builds an unbreakable, four-part case for why believers cannot be condemned. 1) Christ died, paying our debt. 2) He was raised, proving God's justice was satisfied. 3) He is at God's right hand, exercising all authority for us. 4) He continually intercedes for us. Each action makes our condemnation by Him impossible.
