Second Coming Not for Judgment
Taken from "A Course In Miracles", Jesus tells us, "Christ's Second Coming gives the Son of God the gift to hear the Voice for God proclaim that what is false is false, and what is true has never changed. And this the judgment is in which perception ends.
At first you see a world which has accepted this as true, projected from a now corrected mind. And with this holy sight, perception gives a silent blessing and then disappears, its goal accomplished and its mission done.
The final judgment on the world contains no condemnation. For it sees the world as totally forgiven, without sin and wholly purposeless. Without a cause, and now without a function in Christ's sight, it merely slips away to nothingness. There it was born, and there it ends as well. And all the figures in the dream in which the world began go with it.
Bodies now are useless, and will therefore fade away, because the Son of God is limitless.
You who believed that God's Last judgment would condemn the world to hell along with you, accept this holy truth: God's judgment is the gift of the Correction He bestowed on all your errors, freeing you from them, and all effects they ever seemed to have.
To fear God's saving grace is but to fear complete release from suffering, return to peace, security and happiness, and union with your own Identity.
IS EACH ONE TO BE JUDGED IN THE END?
Indeed, yes! No one can escape God's Final Judgment. Who could flee forever from the truth? But the Final Judgment will not come until it is no longer associated with fear.
One day each one will welcome it, and on that very day it will be given him. He will hear his sinlessness proclaimed around and around the world, setting it free as God's Final Judgment on him is received. This is the Judgment in which salvation lies.
This is the Judgment that will set him free. This is the Judgment in which all things are freed with him. Time pauses as eternity comes near, and silence lies across the world that everyone may hear this Judgment of the Son of God:
Holy are you, eternal, free and whole, at peace forever in the Heart of God. Where is the world, and where is sorrow now?
Is this your judgment on yourself? Do you believe that this is wholly true? No, not yet, not yet. But this is still your goal for why you are here.
It is your function to prepare yourself to hear this judgment and to recognize that it is true.
One instant of complete belief in this, and you will go beyond belief to certainty.One instant out of time can bring time's end.
Judge not, for you but judge yourself, and thus delay this Final Judgment.
What is your judgment of the world?
Have you yet learned to stand aside and hear the Voice of Judgment in yourself? Or do you still attempt to take His role from Him?
Learn to be quiet, for His Voice is heard in stillness. And His Judgment comes to all who stand aside in quiet listening, and wait for Him.
