It is said that judgment will be complete.
Judgment; is literally waiting for us in the moment. Judgment is perfect and eternal. Meaning, judgement is something we walk into; timeless, as is God.
The moment of the sin was decided before the sin is acted on. Because the sin itself is in moment that is known in heavenly realms before it is even placed in front of us. Yes, there is a choice to be made, but whatever choice you make only honors yourself, and the will that led you to it. Faith is not defined by choices nor by understanding. Faith only occurs by the Father's will, and only if you have revealed the truth. So we walk into moments where sin is established in the form of choice.
Until Jesus was sent upon the world, knowledge of good and evil was acknowledged by what is termed the Law. The Law defines sin, it did not overcome it. So this is why the Hebrews believed and worked towards the goal of the way of righteous living. So they could walk into each moment being knowledgeable of sin, and therefore capable of acknowledging it with their choices and understanding. They were not able to remove sin from the moment, no. They were only equipped to recognize it, and appeal to the Father for forgiveness.
Jesus came to fulfill what the Law, and what prophesy; made a path for. Prophesy was the Almighty God's authority, spoken through an individual. Prophesy supplied those in the time of Law, direction. The Law did not overcome sin, but it did make sin known. Prophets and the Law were supposed to; develop in a way for the Hebrews to begin to rely on faith, instead of knowledge. Faith is from God: holy, and by acting on it; shows a confidence in the unseen quality of God, and by it, sin in the moment can be overcome; which shows righteousness to be of the Father.
Jesus is the Truth. Jesus said if you do not deny yourself, you cannot (be a disciple of Truth.) The only way to overcome sin that is sin before you, is to go into moments, not on your own reactions but by allowing the truth to instead live through you. Because the truth only does the Father's will. And it is our reactions, and our choices; that cement judgement in the moments put before us. If you walk into any moment going forward without the truth in your heart, judgment is waiting. Amen
We do not have a will of our own. Either we do the will of the prince of this world, or we deny ourselves and allow the truth to live through us, and walk in confidence of that way. Because the truth came from the Father, and the truth returned to Him as well. The Spirit of Truth is the only way to acknowledge the Father's will. In this form we react to what is set before us; moment to moment. Sin is in a moment and our choices define our judgement.
The only way to overcome judgement is by believing Jesus did the will of God. He defeated the will of the master of this world. He overcame the eternal judgement, by doing His Father's will. The sin that was waiting for him, he did not react to, instead he overcame himself by maintaining his love for the Father with all his heart and mind, body and soul.
So of course we sin, none of us can maintain the will of God moment to moment. But we have forgiveness of tresspass and we also forgive trespass, both from the recognition that we are unable to overcome sin, nor is anyone else able to. All we can do is deny ourselves, and serve one another in selfless ways. It is in that service, that we deny our selves for the sake of others, and are then capable of acknowledging the Father's will by His Truth. We know we do His will, by the fruit it bears: love kindness gentleness faithfulness self-control peace patience goodness and joy.
Judgement is not coming, it already begun when Adam and Eve were cast into the world. Judgement is upon us. Perhaps those words carry new depth for you now.
May this open you up to an understanding that honors the Truth and glorifies the kingdom by which the Spirit of Truth bears fruit through your selfless service in the Father's will.
