The Severity of God's Judgment

I have not known coincidences in over 13 years, maybe I never have (I don't know when God called me, I don't even know if the decision was unanimous). Last night, the Messengers of God flew over Laurel, MD.

This world has been exiled and separated from the compassion of the Living God. Today a light bulb came on, and it dawned on me that for the last decade, certainly the last 3 years, God has been revealing to me how God plans to go about changing this.

What do I mean when I say, "exile" and "separated"? "Surely, there is no God." Or, "Surely, God has not been separated from me!" Your experience with God is true; it is the honest and open truth. God has done nothing in secret. God has said, "They will have their liberty, but they will not have Me." So, you see, it's impossible for you to understand the compassion of God - there is nothing to compare it to. In this world, in this race, there is no tangible difference from lacking belief in God(s) and believing that God is with you - the physical experience is exactly the same; and this should speak volumes to you.

It's why you need someone to constantly and consistently reiterate, Sunday after Sunday, how much God loves you and cares for you - the plain and obvious evidence of God's love just isn't there. Yes, we are all alive, and none of us did anything to be here - but the same can be said for every living thing in all 5 kingdoms of life on this planet; making your portion with God no different from a mushroom's.

This is exile, this is separation. You can look at the complexity of this universe, and the strangeness of evolving life - this being more true if you have some knowledge of physics and biological sciences - so it only makes sense that God could do something as simple as "heal". But yet, there are hospitals and hospice centers all over this planet, because as the world is aware (religious or not), without them, there would be far less people alive over the age of 30.

God has desire and liberty, and man has desire and liberty, and the 2 hardly align. What is it that God desires of us? The same now is the same always - here and everywhere: to treat others in the same ways that you'd have others treat you; never restricting their liberty in the process (because you would never want anyone to restrict your liberty without due cause); and to walk trustingly with God. The latter you have absolutely no control over, and this trust is what will create acceptable compassion in you (compassion that is acceptable to God). When God comes and teaches you to know and trust God, you will have no concern with being bombed out of existence or worry about someone breaking in your home to slaughter your kids. Your defense will become God's defense, your strength God's strength, and the weapons of war are never required - not for you. You will not know devastating coincidences, not anymore. But that is then - and that is not where you are right now, nor does it make any sense to you. This is the result of exile and separation.

So what is it that God intends to do? God will, as has been made clear to my understanding, put the people of this world on a path, and if they deviate from that path it will hurt. There will be visible and obvious signs of impending pain, it will become uncomfortable, it will be painful, and it will become hard to breathe. God will not take away your liberty, so you can walk wherever you want to walk, but you can only end up in Life or death - death has been the norm (so it's nothing you aren't used to if you decide to go your own way, and many will die). This is the severity of God's judgment.

It will be made clear to your understanding the direction you should walk - to deviate will hurt, so you'll know not to go that way anymore. You'll keep walking the path that God sets up, and if you are of the few who are not fed up with mercy and grace (which many will be), then things will start to fall in place; things will start to make sense - light bulbs will come on. It will become part of everyday life to walk this path; this will be your formal introduction to the mercy and compassion of God (don't be surprised if the night skies light up above you). You will know what it's like to not hurt, to not fear, to not be in pain, and you will find that trusting in the strength and kindness of God an acceptable and amazing idea. You won't need anyone reiterating weekly that "God is love", it will be plainly obvious to you that your mercy, your justice, your gentleness, and you being a decent human being was a hell of a good idea all along.

======================================================

I'm still wondering how a wet rusty nail in a foot works in with all of this. My initial reaction: when my foot slid, I thought I banged it against that plastic barrier - as the pain wasn't that bad. But when the pain wouldn't go away, I realized I had been pierced.

I put the shears away and while running up the stairs, so I could get to the bathroom and check my foot, I asked God, "Why?!" (as in "Why did You let this happen?!"). These were my initial reactions, in case they matter as things become more clear going forward.

"Why would anyone go their own way?" Well, at that time, it will make the most sense to them. People typically justify their bad decisions - turning "bad decisions" into "good decisions".

You'll see pastors justifying the slaughter of sex workers and homosexuals; and you'll see people ignoring the pain as they pick up knives and bats as to treat people in ways they would never want to be treated themselves. This is the way of death.

I would never want to go back and relearn decency again. Yes, I am glad it happened, as the trauma branded that trusting faith in me, but I would never want to go through that again. If you survive, you'll have a journey ahead of you, and it will not be easy; just stay the path.

You have 1.8 million malnourished children in Yemen due to wars, violence, and various forms of oppression, and this is something that God has been forced to deal with on a second-by-second basis.

This type of daily dealings are coming to an end, but it will take years, and it will take a lot of care and devotion on God's part to accomplish all that God has planned.

Pain and awful discomfort will not be preferred, not by those being inflicted, nor by God doing the inflicting (who will only be giving you the bitter fruit of the seeds you planted yourself). Just stay the path so that you might be forgiven and the pain is removed.

God desires LIFE, for this world to become an eternal Garden of compassionate lovers; all kinds of lovers. So you see, staying the path will be impossible for many, specifically for the devoutly conservative and religious.

Though you may be forgiven by God, and the pain from God taken away, staying the path will cause others to hate you. Your liberty and ease will be offensive to them. So you may no longer receive pain from God, but you may receive pain from others.

I promise you it is temporary, and no one can destroy what God intends to save eternally. I expect nothing less for myself, as all those awful things God showed me all those years ago come full circle.
