       Paul takes this verse here a step further from the moment he asked who could be against us to now, “Who shall bring any charge against” us? In a way, this may be a reference to Satan, who we remember stands in front of God’s throne to accuse us of this and that sin. In other words, due to the fact we are trusting in Christ’s provision, his sacrifice on the cross for us and resurrection from the dead, we recognize that we are guiltless before God. So, not Satan nor any demons can bring a charge against us. Even on the earth, ultimately we are guilt-free at the end of the day. This doesn’t mean we aren’t responsible if we do wrong, or that we don’t need to repent of sin or even ask for people’s forgiveness. There are other places in the New Testament that clearly speak to those matters. When the dust has settled, no matter what the matter, no one can truly bring a charge against us. That is because Christ has made us not guilty for all accounts of sin.
