In the context of <a href="/romans/8.htm">Romans 8</a>, Paul is addressing the assurance of salvation and the inability of any power to separate believers from the love of God. The question echoes the courtroom imagery where God is the judge, and Christ is the advocate. This reflects <a href="/isaiah/50-8.htm">Isaiah 50:8-9</a>, where the Servant of the Lord declares that no one can condemn him because God is his helper.<p><b>For Christ Jesus, who died,</b><br>The death of Christ is central to Christian theology, representing the atonement for sin. His sacrificial death fulfills Old Testament prophecies such as <a href="/isaiah/53.htm">Isaiah 53</a>, where the suffering servant bears the iniquities of many. The historical context of crucifixion as a Roman execution method underscores the extent of Christ's humiliation and suffering.<p><b>and more than that was raised to life,</b><br>The resurrection is the cornerstone of Christian faith, validating Jesus' divinity and the truth of His teachings. It fulfills prophecies like <a href="/psalms/16-10.htm">Psalm 16:10</a>, which speaks of God not allowing His Holy One to see decay. The resurrection signifies victory over sin and death, offering believers hope for eternal life.<p><b>is at the right hand of God&#8212;</b><br>The right hand of God symbolizes a position of power and authority. This imagery is rooted in <a href="/psalms/110.htm">Psalm 110:1</a>, where the Messiah is invited to sit at God's right hand. It signifies Christ's exaltation and His role as sovereign ruler. The ascension, as described in <a href="/acts/1-9.htm">Acts 1:9-11</a>, marks the moment Jesus takes this position.<p><b>and He is interceding for us.</b><br>Christ's intercession is an ongoing ministry where He advocates on behalf of believers. This is paralleled in <a href="/hebrews/7-25.htm">Hebrews 7:25</a>, which states that Jesus lives to make intercession for those who come to God through Him. It reflects the high priestly role of Jesus, who mediates between God and humanity, ensuring that believers are continually covered by His righteousness.<div class="vheading2">Persons / Places / Events</div>1. <b><a href="/topical/c/christ_jesus.htm">Christ Jesus</a></b><br>The central figure of Christianity, who died for our sins, was resurrected, and now intercedes for believers at the right hand of God.<br><br>2. <b><a href="/topical/g/god.htm">God</a></b><br>The sovereign Creator and Father, whose right hand is a place of honor and authority.<br><br>3. <b><a href="/topical/i/intercession.htm">Intercession</a></b><br>The act of Jesus mediating on behalf of believers, ensuring their salvation and standing before God.<br><br>4. <b><a href="/topical/r/resurrection.htm">Resurrection</a></b><br>The event of Jesus rising from the dead, affirming His victory over sin and death.<br><br>5. <b><a href="/topical/c/condemnation.htm">Condemnation</a></b><br>The judgment or disapproval that believers are spared from through Christ's sacrifice and intercession.<div class="vheading2">Teaching Points</div><b><a href="/topical/c/christ's_authority_and_victory.htm">Christ's Authority and Victory</a></b><br>Jesus' position at the right hand of God signifies His authority and victory over sin and death.

The two questions, "Who is he that condemneth?" and "Who shall separate us?" are really parts of the reply to the main question thrown into an interrogative form.
