How do we know the law cannot condemn believers?

Answered in 1 source

The law cannot condemn believers because they are united with Christ, who fulfilled the law on their behalf (Romans 7:1-4).

The Apostle Paul argues that believers are 'dead to the law by the body of Christ' in Romans 7:4, illustrating that through Christ's death and resurrection, they are united with Him and freed from the law's demands. This union signifies that the law's power to condemn has been rendered inactive for those in Christ. As a result, believers are regarded as blameless and uncondemned by God, since Christ bore the penalty for their sins. This understanding encourages believers to live freely under grace, rather than under the burden of the law.
