I have a question regarding the second half of Romans 8:1. "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."
Does this mean that those who are in Christ do not walk according to the flesh (In other words,, does "who do not walk according to the flesh" explain all those who are in Christ)? Or does it mean that that, of those who are in Christ, there are some who walk according the flesh and some according to the Spirit (In other words,, does "who do not walk according to the flesh" further qualify those who receive no condemnation?)
I've always assumed it's the first, but can I know that from this passage's context?
