# Romans 8:1 and Salvation **"There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus."** (Romans 8:1, ESV) This verse teaches that believers who are united with Christ through faith are completely free from God's judgment and wrath for their sins. Salvation means being "in Christ Jesus," which results in the removal of all condemnation—past, present, and future. This is the secure position of every true Christian, grounded not in their own works but in their union with Christ.
