Doing no iniquity refers to the believer’s position in Christ, where they are seen as free from sin due to their new nature.
Psalm 119 discusses that those who are blessed, such as the undefiled, do no iniquity. This statement can be understood in the context of justification and the transformative work of the Holy Spirit. Believers are declared righteous in Christ, who bore their sin, meaning that in the eyes of God, they are seen as sinless. This does not imply that believers will be free from sin in their daily lives; rather, it highlights the new nature they possess, which is incapable of sinning in the context of their spiritual identity. The essence of this truth rests on a deep understanding of one’s identity in Christ and the sanctifying work of the Holy Spirit within their lives.
