Poetic Judgement
THE COMFORT AND FEAR OF POETIC JUSTICE
There is both horror and comfort in knowing that we will judge ourselves. God withholds His final judgment in favor of a self-judgment that ensures a fairness not to be found in our courts. The war being fought in Heaven is more than a war for power. It is a war for justice. While those in the Heavenly realms dispute the degree of power God holds over them, those who follow Satan believe his claim of equal power with his Creator has merit. Satan is out to prove it.
The whole conflict revolves around Satan’s ability to make mankind follow him. He wants us to choose his ways over the virtue expressed through love. The certainty of God’s power is seen in His administration of truth. He has released Satan from all Godly control, allowing him to demonstrate his claims before all who witness in Heaven. God has left him free to act without constraint against the wiles of his corrupted nature. As a result, mankind is born into a battleground ruled by evil, where each of us must make a choice.
As those who have chosen sides in Heaven watch, we too are given the chance to choose sides. And it is our fate that we will ultimately judge ourselves. God issues no final judgment from His throne of infinite power until the end. That end will come about without interference as Satan continues to work upon human minds through his insidious deceptions.
God’s judgment is poetic, unquestionably fair, and weighed against the measure of pure truth.
Confessing your sins without the weight of Satan’s influence allows the sinner to account for his actions freely, including the justifications he once used to defend them. But the hollow justifications an evildoer relied upon while alive will no longer shield him from the truth.
Revealed will be the full truth behind the justifications that shaped a person into one whose actions appeared evil. These are the circumstances and influences that must be weighed in determining the confessor’s true guilt. They are the truths that often escape the judgments of men, the unseen influences that shaped a person’s behavior beyond his own control. In this final accounting, every truth must be considered.
I like to think of this using the Pharaoh in Egypt as example. God, for His own purpose, hardened Pharaoh’s heart. We must therefore ask how much guilt should be attributed to Pharaoh for his deeds. If God Himself influenced the choices Pharaoh made, how can we judge Pharaoh fairly without accounting for that influence?
We are given the opportunity to confess our sins while still among the living, to change our lives so that our actions bear witness to the side we have chosen.
When you stand in judgment, knowing all that you deserve, you will make your confession burdened by the guilt, shame, and fear that you kept hidden from others throughout your life. Your fear will now concern the fate of your eternal soul, whose existence you can no longer deny.
If you lived your life serving a master who now stands defeated, only one power will loom before you. It is the power of the One whose plan proved victorious over Satan’s free reign. No longer can you hide the products of your greed and avarice. Your soul will suffer as it sees the wrongs you thought you had escaped accountability for. No defense will come to mind. You will be laid bare as your own accounting exposes the choices you made before all who witness your self-condemnation.
The horror of the Godly power you once denied will unfold before you, and the outcome may be one from which only mercy can save you.
But God’s plan was designed to provide mankind with a means to defeat Satan and avoid the self-abasing suffering of this judgment. It offers salvation that is not based on how poorly you have led your life, but on your acceptance of a part in His plan.
That plan offers an advocate whose words speak on your behalf at judgment. His name is Jesus. His part in God’s plan was to die as a sacrifice for your sins, an acceptable payment for the sins of all mankind. Through Him, salvation offers the promise of continued sentience, eternal life.
God’s plan and the sacrifice of His Son require no penance from a redeemed soul. Only acceptance!

Re: Poetic Judgement
What means are we given to fight the supernatural?
The Bible says that Satan was given dominion over us with a greater power of deception than even God's.
Why would God do such a stupid thing?

- If Eve had not convinced Adam to eat the forbidden fruit, they would both have been Human Pets.
- The earth is Satan’s realm and he had the power to offer it all to Jesus.
- Acceptance of the offer would have made the earth the master of Jesus, the human physical man.
- God gave man the same freedom as God (made in the image of), to recognize and live with evil, but not as the Pet of a Master.
- Socialism promises that everyone can be a happy pet, with government the master.
- Why would anyone want to be such a stupid pet?
- It's the conflict between freedom (as defined above) and security as promised by socialists, however the cost of security is freedom, and that goes against human nature.

To be human is to be a judge of all Gods.
Have you not read your quite clear on this fact Bible?
Jesus said he was one of many. See them?
The humans that did write the Bible were not reading their myths the way those do today who end in adoring a genocidal God who puts the good of the few above the good of the many.
That Trinity is not fit to be called a God.
Even you would likely be a better God. Right?
Or can you not discern good from evil?

Yahweh's heaven is Fascist, Communist or Tyranny.
The questions were clear with nothing behind them.
You might give them a try with Satan is a female in mind.

Heaven is supernatural.
Socialism, fascism, communism, tyranny, deception are not supernatural.
Satan has dominion over the earth.
The earth is not supernatural.
Although anthropomorphized, Satan reveals as the actions and thoughts of a human form, and human form is of the earth over which Satan has dominion. This could be the reason for Christian self-flagellation and self-denial to make the spirit more prominent and in more primitive, animism cultures where Christianity does not play a role, pain to reveal truth as in a vision quest.
Although, I remember reading in National Geographic when I was a kid that Christians in Mexico are into self-flagellation during certain holidays, and priests have been known to wear hairshirts to deny the flesh (Satan's realm) which must be quite uncomfortable, but which strengthens the spirit (God's supernatural, spirit realm).

That depth of analysis does succeed in bypassing any pretense of persuasion by leaning into totalitarianism.
The I Am that you are, is not form.
Form changes.
I Am does not change.
Consciousness of I Am in heaven or hell requires form.

Re: Poetic Judgement
Fellas tagging heaven as the stupid realm is an overt solicitation, and perhaps inspiration, to shy recruits for The Misotheist Choir, where thinking or explanation is not so much a requirement.
Heaven may well be the suspension of thought, which is outside the earthly realm that stupid describes.

I agree that believers should follow the Bibles advice of putting away things of children, like un-intelligent supernatural beliefs.Walker wrote: ↑Fri Oct 23, 2026 6:56 pm Fellas tagging heaven as the stupid realm is an overt solicitation, and perhaps inspiration, to shy recruits for The Misotheist Choir, where thinking or explanation is not so much a requirement.

Such beliefs have otherwise moral people adore a God who immorally puts the good of the few ahead of the good of the many.
No wonder Satan told him where to go. All moral people will follow her more just judgements.
