Assurance of Pardon
Who is in a position to condemn?
Only Christ, and Christ died for us, Christ rose for us,
Christ reigns in power for us, Christ prays for us.
Anyone in Christ is a new creation: the past is gone; the new has come.
Friends, believe the good news of the gospel.
In Jesus Christ, we are forgiven!
—Based on Romans 8:34 Phillips & 2 Corinthians 5:17
