Believers are free from condemnation because Christ has fully satisfied the law's demands on their behalf.
In 1 Corinthians 6:12, Paul expresses that 'all things are lawful' for believers because they are not under condemnation due to Christ's fulfillment of the law. This doesn’t mean that believers can live recklessly; rather, it highlights the new relationship Christians have with the law through Christ. The law, which once condemned, has been fulfilled by Jesus. Therefore, those in Christ should live in a manner that glorifies God, recognizing that their freedom should motivate them to seek what is expedient and beneficial.
