Message from Jesus, in The Gospel of God’s Love, page 285.
“Judgment of the human soul is an important accompaniment of human life, both in their flesh bodies and in the spirit world. As regards its rewards and punishments, hardly anything demands more thought and consideration of mortal man, because of its certainty that he cannot avoid them. Judgment as certainly follows death as does night the day, and no philosophy, theological dogma or scientific determination can alter that fact, or in any way change the exact workings of this judgment.
“But judgment is not a thing belonging exclusively to the after-death period, for it is present and operating with men and women from the time they become incarnate in the human form, until they become discarnate; and thereafter continuously until the cause of effects have been satisfied, and there remains nothing to be judged – which happy ending is also a fact. For all humans are destined to progress to a condition of harmony with the laws that make effective these judgments.
“These laws operate, and continuously humans are being “judged” for the causes that one starts into existence, and the after-death judgment is only a continuation of what started when the soul was in the flesh. Of course, these judgments become more intensified when souls go into their spirit life, because one must try to realize that the expression “After death, the Judgment” has a greater significance and has more vital importance than saying that judgment is with everyone throughout their mortal lives.
“God is never an angry God, rejoicing in the satisfaction of a penalty being paid by one of his erring children, but always a loving Father, rejoicing in the redemption of his children from the suffering that a violation of the law of harmony exacts with certitude. Human beings are their own bookkeepers and in their memory is recorded all the thoughts and deeds of their earth life that are not in accord with the harmony of God’s will. The judgment is not a thing of a day or a time, but is neverceasing, so long as there exists that upon which it can operate. It deminishes in proportion as the causes for the inharmony disappear. Judgment day is every day, where the law of compensation is working. “As a soul soweth, so shall it also reap,” is as true as the fact that the sun shines on the just and the unjust alike.” Amen
