# Romans 8:1 and the Incarnation Romans 8:1 states: "There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus" (ESV). This verse does not directly teach about the incarnation itself, but rather addresses the result of Christ's incarnate work—namely, that through being united to the incarnate Christ by faith ("in Christ Jesus"), believers are freed from condemnation. The verse presupposes that Jesus came in human flesh to accomplish the redemption that removes condemnation, pointing to the purpose rather than the fact of the incarnation.
