The Condemnation Free Life With Judah LupisellaExemplo

Day Two

According to Strong's Concordance and Thayer's Greek–English Lexicon of the New Testament, two words that mean “conviction” and “convict” in Biblical Greek are elegchos and elegchō. They are defined as having your sin exposed by God as it’s brought to the light, to be pronounced guilty by evidence, yet receiving a pardon for your sin through a new life in Jesus.

According to Thayer’s Greek–English Lexicon of the New Testament, one word in Biblical Greek for “condemnation” is katákrima. Condemnation means to have a damnatory sentence that the verdict is in; there is no hope for pardon, forgiveness, or salvation.

Conviction will lead you to repentance, while condemnation will pin you in a corner of guilt and shame, tormenting your mind, deceiving you that your identity is “failure” instead of the reality: “follower of Christ” and “beloved child of God.” Conviction reveals your wrongdoing while reminding you that God's grace covers your sin. Conviction gives you the desire to seek after God more zealously because of His grace that He's shown toward you. Condemnation makes you feel scared to step foot in public out of the fear that you’ll displease God. I was once in that place, making excuses not to go out in public because I felt I would fail God. But now, instead of the devil tormenting me, I torment him with my freedom, and I freely go wherever I please and wherever the Spirit leads! If God freed me, He’ll free you! Hallelujah!
