Romans 8:1 NKJV
There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit.
We are followers of Jesus, born again believers. When we first believed, Holy Spirit, the spirit of Christ, came to live in us. His spirit and our spirit became joined, united forever as one spirit.
This verse does not say we have to tread carefully in our daily walk. It does not say there is condemnation for those that mess up in their walk. We all are guilty of that but the Father only sees us as one joined with the spirit of His Son, Jesus.
This verse is declaring that as born again believers we walk by the spirit and not by the flesh because that is who we are. Our walk is covered by God's Grace in all we do. As we make mistakes we learn to walk closer with Him. His mercies are new every morning. We learn to listen more to Holy Spirit as He directs our steps and teaches us all things.
