       So, if God doesn’t continually condemn us, and yet we feel condemnation in us, where does that condemnation come from? Well, if it’s not coming from God then it must be coming from the other side, from Satan. Yes, for sure. Satan will try to get us to focus on our sin, to continually think about it over and over. He will use demonic spirits to remind us of our sin. He wants us to think about our sin. Recall, elsewhere in Scripture Satan is called the accuser of us, as Christians. He loves to accuse us, to try to get us to forget that Christ has paid for all our offenses, and that all we need to do is count on him. At the time Satan and his forces present these lies to us, we have one of two choices to make. We can either accept what Satan says, and feel horrible, or we can say back to him that God has forgiven our sin and wants me to forget about it. We can repeat back to him, “There is no condemnation for me because I am in Christ Jesus.”
