Judgement falls away when one considers the magnitude of this gift.


Judgment does NOT go away.

We may like to think God is lenient. He looks the other way against our sin.

There is a HUGE difference between leniency and mercy. If we understand mercy we repent and grieve over sin.

We can only understand the magnitude of the gift, if one understands the extent of our sin.

The whole message of the Bible is REPENT and turn to God. We tend to not like the word repent and only talk about the “turn to God”.

Sorry I did not state clearly what I meant

Judgment from God does not go away, but OUR inclination to judge others should when we realize we are all in equal status...sinners in need of a Savior.
