Tell them their is no ‘social’ in justice & no ‘social’ in forgiveness. We are judged as individuals & God will judge us, & forgive us, as individuals.

Israel & the US had a covenant, so maybe these will be judged as countries. Otherwise...it’s up to the individual to live a God-fearing - & loving - life.

The Pilgrims dedicated what is now the United States to Christ. I am sure that the Lord won’t forsake us, even though we are, no doubt, going to suffer for our transgressions like Judah did.

....................................
Here, let me fix that sentence for you: God will judge us, and forgive OR condemn us as individuals.

Otherwise there’s no point to the act of judging. If you’re think of judging as admonishing, that is not the same thing. It’s doubtful God intends to lecture his children about their transgressions then pat them on the head and tell them they’re forgiven. Those who believe that need to contemplate the meaning of righteous judgment referred to in Rom. 2-6.
