The Last Judgment Meaning

The Final Judgment is one of the greatest threat concepts in man’s perception. This is only because he does not understand it.

Judgment is not an essential attribute of God. Man brought judgment into being only because of the Separation.

God Himself is still the God of mercy. After the Separation, however, there WAS a place for justice in the schema, because it was one of the many learning devices which had to be built into the overall plan.

Just as the Separation occurred over many millions of years, the Last Judgment will extend over a similarly long period and perhaps even longer. Its length depends however, on the effectiveness of the present speed-up.

We have frequently noted that the miracle is a device for shortening but not abolishing time. If a sufficient number of people become truly miracle-minded quickly, the shortening process can be almost immeasurable.

But it is essential that these individuals free themselves from fear sooner than would ordinarily be the case, because they MUST emerge from basic conflict if they are to bring peace to the minds of others.

The Last Judgment is generally thought of as a procedure undertaken by God.

Actually, it will be undertaken solely by man, with Jesus’ help.

It is a Final Healing, rather than a meting out of punishment, however much man may think punishment is deserved.

Punishment as a concept in total opposition to Right-Mindedness.

The aim of the Final Judgment is to RESTORE Right-Mindedness TO man.

The Final Judgment might be called a process of Right-evaluation. It simply means that finally all men must come to understand what is worthy and what is not.

After this, their ability to choose can be reasonably directed. Unless this distinction has been made, the vacillations between free and imprisoned WILL cannot but continue.

The first step toward freedom, then, MUST entail a sorting out of the false from the true. This is a process of division only in the constructive sense and reflects the true meaning of the Apocalypse.

Man will ultimately look upon his own creations and WILL to preserve only what is good, just as God Himself once looked upon what he had created and knew that it WAS good.

At this point the Will, will begin to look with love on its creations, because of their great worthiness.

The mind will inevitably disown its miscreations and having withdrawn belief from them, they will no longer exist.

The term Last Judgment is frightening, not only because it has been falsely projected onto God, but also because of the association of “Last” with death.

This is an outstanding example of upside-down perception.  Actually, if it is examined objectively, it is quite apparent that it is really the doorway to life.

No man who lives in fear is really alive.

His own final judgment cannot be directed toward himself, because he is not his own creation.

This is what his own Right-Mindedness cannot but dictate.

The purpose of time is solely to “give him (man) time” to achieve this judgment.

It is his own perfect judgment of his own creation.

When everything that he retains is lovable, there is no reason for any fear to remain in him.

This IS his part in the Atonement.

After the Last Judgment, there isn’t any more. This is symbolic only in the sense that everybody is much better off WITHOUT judgment.

Do not fear the last judgment, but welcome it, and do not wait.
