Romans 8:1 - "There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus."
This is the joy of the Gospel! there is no condemnation for us before the throne of God because in His love He has provided salvation for us in Christ. We have been set free. We are His children once again, and co-heirs with Christ of all the blessing of heaven. If this does not make us thankful, nothing will!
