Get It, For You Have Got It: This World Is That World
The so-called world to come is here. It just becomes clearer. This darkened world IS that bright world dimmed out by ignorance. Jesus is there, and He is here. Our life and our sin here are our life and our sin there. Thoughts here are thoughts there. We are thus judged. The so-called life review at death is not so much judgment as it is why we are so judged. Grace and love here are grace and love there. Adultery here is adultery there. Hate, unforgiveness, and deceit here simply are what they are. If you are a cheat or thief here, you are already a cheat or thief there, because here IS there. Cause a little one to stumble here, and you are in trouble. What you are thinking here, you are thinking there. The review is not for condemnation or forgiveness, is not up for debate, but indicates what we are. That IS our state - unclear here, but real clear there. We will think at review, "That is what I AM," because it is what we ARE. Live life as though you were there now, because you are.
