Two Spirits and 2 Outcomes

“Thus, condemnation will never come to those who are in Christ Jesus, because the law of the Spirit which gives life in Christ Jesus has set you free from the law of sin and death.” (Romans 8: 1-2)
If one is in Christ Jesus, then he is a new creation. The Spirit of life lives in him. The Spirit of life produces effortlessly in him works of righteousness. But he who is not in Christ Jesus is still living the life of the old man. He operates under the law of sin and death which are the consequences of the spirit that dwells in him. This fellow will come under condemnation. But if he renounces his sins and asks Jesus to save him, Jesus will come to him and bind the spirit of sin and death in him and in its place give him the Spirit of life. He is declared righteous and will no longer be under condemnation.
