To bring about God’s Justice and Love, the Christian has to constantly discern what is fake, facts, and the Truth. Some say, facts are the Truth! Yet, facts can be planted, orchestrated, or twisted. But Truth is Spiritual and self-evident regardless of any fact. The Bible talks about the man who steals to feed his family, which is the Truth of his motive, while the facts of his stealing are the evidence, which becomes a crime when he is caught. We all have stolen from others and God, but without the facts of the crime, only the Truth will be used by the Spirit to Righteously judge us. Hence, “God sees the heart” - 1 Sam. 16:7. The ten commandments and Laws were given not to determine Love for God, but to establish judgment for His Justice. How can this be? The commandments were given to Moses, who came after Abraham, who came after Noah.

Chronologically; from Noah (means rest); God stated; “I will wipe from the face of the Earth the human race” - Gen. 6:7. From Abraham (means father of nations); God stated; “the Lord inflicted great diseases on Pharaoh” - Gen. 12:17. And lastly; from Moses (means water saved); God stated; “I have come down to rescue them from the Egyptians” - Ex. 3:8. In all three times; God is expressing Justice. And by taking this sequence, we have: “Peace (rest) I give as God (father of nations), for in Me is Life (water). And what was Jesus’ mission? To give all people Salvation, saying, “My peace I give you” - Jn. 14:27; “You see Me, you see the Father” - Jn. 14:9; and “The water I give is everlasting Life” - Jn. 4:14. Peace from the Father for Life! These prominent icons of the Word charted and basically established our Faith, manifesting in Jesus, including pointing to the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Some say God murdered all those people. Yet God is Justified because there was no blood sacrifice for sin before the Tabernacle. Nothing required to appease His Wrath! Hence, why Jesus, the Living Eternal Sacrifice, is the fulfillment of the shadowed Tabernacle that had to be constantly reestablished as they journeyed through the wilderness. Once Jesus gave His Blood, then the Father’s Love would be completely Justified by His will, regardless of any previous Law, or legalism that satan would argue for punishment. That is Justice for, and by God’s Love! This Revelation is repeated with Joshua (meaning God’s Salvation), David (meaning Beloved), and Jesus (meaning Saves). Moses represented the Law, which could not be used in the Promiseland, which is based on Grace, as stated, “Each (the saved) has Grace because of Christ” - Eph. 4:7. And not just Grace but Power!

Joshua defeated the giants! David killed the giant goliath! And Jesus defeated satan, the ultimate fear-mongering giant! God always seeks His Justice as it relates to His will. Love is the by-product of His people's obedience. In other words, we demonstrate our Love for God and His people by fulfilling His first three commandments. To share His (fruitful) abundance, spread (multiply) His Word, and rid (dominate) all manner of evil. These are His foundations which centralize, correlate, and complete the commandment to Love God first, then your neighbors second; culminating with Jesus’ command as stated, “Go out and make disciples from all nations (for Justice)” - Matt. 28:19. Remember, God is the master chess player. So His first move is to achieve future moves. His first move was the Eden commandment, regarding “The Tree of Knowledge”. His second was to frame this with “the Law”. And His final move is His Justice using “Jesus” (The Corner Stone) as the measuring stick; as stated, “all will be judged by Christ” - 2 Corth. 5:10.

If you surveyed Christians around the world and asked, “What is the main commandment from God”? Most, if not all, would answer, “Love your neighbor”! Yet this word appears only about 300 times in the Bible. But compared to the word Justice appears over 400 times! This is because in the reality of God’s Spirit, both words refer to the same thing. God Loved Lucifer despite his rebellion, but to maintain His Sovereignty, God had no choice but to expel him. To demonstrate Justice. Now, we are speaking of God’s Spirit in Heaven and as manifested on the Earth. God’s original plan remains! He created Eden to move around its Gardens, just as He would within the inner court of the Tabernacle, the Holy of Holies, and to dwell with us wherever we are; each of us being a Temple of God. And this is why He will inhabit the New Jerusalem. God wants to have intimate moments with His children so that His Presence dominates the Heavens, Earth, and ultimately our very beings.

The unrepentant sinner has already made his bed regardless of God’s Love or Justice. God places His Justice before His Love, because His Love is dependent on the Laws of Justice. This is seen in the Old Testament when priests were required to intervene for the people's sins, and the same by Jesus’ crucifixion. Here is the crux! As in the Old Testament, many relied on the priest, animal blood sacrifices, and quantity. Yet, regardless of this, the Jews suffered whenever they continued to disobey God. The same today. No matter how much the pastor prays for you or the priest forgives your sins, without Godly obedience, sin will have its way sooner or later, resulting in greater stress, trials, and tribulations. For without corresponding obedience and sacrificial repentance, God’s Justice would be immediately applied, regardless of Grace, as stated, “present yourself (Righteously)” - Rm. 12:1. We see this with Ananias, Sapphira, and the rich man, who died immediately when God passed judgment for their unrighteousness. (Acts 5. & Lk. 12:20, respectively). And when David was relocating the Ark of the Covenant, and being in a hurry used unsanctified people to move it, resulting in their deaths. This is because God’s Law dictated His Justice regardless of His Love, mercy, compassion, or Grace for them; and regardless of their Love for Him.

We can’t love God at the human level! We can only Love Him at the Spiritual level with Sacrificial Love and have His Laws written on our hearts. Also, God’s self-Love has the connotation of a singularity, and a holistic meaning not requiring any outside nature but a oneness in its very being. His self-Love is reflected in His name YWHW, meaning “The Almighty”. Well, that's some huge ego, isn’t it! But only God can proclaim this because, as stated, “I AM” (self-contained). Our human love and justice will never be at the same level as God’s, but only when we apply the Mind of Christ. Because Jesus was not an imitator but a Revelation (revealer, reflector, reanimation) of God. This is because Jesus was born sinless, while we are born of sin.

All our thoughts and actions are to be a reflection of unconditional submission to His Law and Declarations. We can’t have it both ways by loving the world and His person. This requires putting aside our feelings on issues, facts, and standing on God’s foundations of Truth. God always leads with His Justice over His Love because without this order, He cannot sustain His Kingdom, and by it, He receives all the Glory. No different from any household, community, or country, where, without laws and justice, love cannot be established. It would be anarchy!

Jesus, who represents God’s ultimate expression of Love, demonstrated God’s Justice by obeying the two greatest commandments in their proper order. We cannot separate this world's needs from God’s wants! Why? Because by the Blood of Jesus, we are authorized to make every aspect of this world a place for God’s Will, Purpose, and Spirit. There is no excuse, including having no ability to change things, and as stated, “nothing is impossible for God” - Lk. 1:37. God’s Love will always overcome facts only when we first seek His Truth, knowing that vengeance (Justice) belongs to God.

This is where religion often mucks up God’s intention for placing the Tree of Life and Knowledge in the Garden, often claiming it was to tempt them. It was to establish the order of their source so that by their obedience, His desire to Bless them would be able to flow. Jesus demonstrates this with the Lord’s prayer. And despite the Garden’s abundance, their purpose was outside in the wilderness. It's not like they could have filled caravans with the Garden’s goods and taken them with them. No, they were to go into the corrupted world with only empty hands, walking in obedience to bring God’s Justice and reveal His Love. Did you notice, God taught obedience first rather than Faith? And because they were disobedient, they had to learn Faith because their toiling would not produce their needs as stated; “cursed is the ground for your sake (well-being, benefit, profit)” - Gen. 3:17. They had to acknowledge God’s Justice, and by Faith till the soil to receive the Blessing. If they obeyed; there would be no need for Faith; as stated; “Faith are things hoped for without any evidence” - Heb. 11:1. We also see this with the Parable of the Wedding Feast; where the guests invited saw the banquet prepared; but because some did not have the Holy Spirit (garment); they were kicked out by the king’s (God’s) Justice; because they were faithless (Heb. 11:6); and “The Spirit knows we are children of God” - Rm. 8:16. Even God’s generosity is dependent on His Justice. And as stated, “And Yahweh require of you, but to do Justice” - Mi 6:8.

To appreciate God's Justice, and His way of demonstrating His Love for us, we must remember; God sent Jesus (Salvation), that whoever has (trust, reliance, Faith) in Him (the Word) should not perish but have everlasting Life (health, clarity, spirit). In other words, God so Loved what He created that He sacrificed part of Himself so that anyone who acknowledged Him would not decay but have eternity. One cannot have eternity without order, which depends on Justice, and the Love for its Purpose. Why would a self-sustaining creator regard the corruption of His Hand worthwhile? Because His perfect Will requires it! That all He has done and will do is only a reflection of His self-Love to justify His very existence, and regardless of sin, He will honor anyone in Christ, being a new creation, with old things passed away, and all things becoming new. Because God’s Love and Justice are immutable as stated, “For I the Lord do not change” - Mal. 3:6.

Flush it out - Fear not those who harm the body, but He who can destroy the spirit!

Grace reveals God’s Love by delaying Justice, allowing us to make restitution not by works (toiling) but by Righteousness, and can be used by God for His purpose. This is why, without God’s forgiveness for our sins, eventually Justice will be applied for unrepentance. Also, God’s mercy and compassion are generally reserved for the sinner, while His Grace is for the saved. It’s like a father telling his older child that they should know better, holding them to a higher level of responsibility, unlike the younger child, who receives understanding.

All this would be by Jesus, His Blood, and the Holy Spirit. Hence, as stated, “pursuing the flesh is death but the Spirit is Life” - Rm. 8:6. That is, the lifeless water is replaced with the Life-filling Spirit! This is why: water baptism only indicates a turnaround, while Spiritual baptism indicates a walk towards Righteousness, as stated, “I (John - a man) baptize with water, but He (Jesus - Messiah) baptizes with the Spirit” - Matt. 3:11. Did you know there is no record of Jesus baptising? Wouldn’t that be the ultimate baptism? Because Jesus' main mandate was not to save but to bring Justice against satan, including all his evil acts after Eden. Once Jesus accomplished the restoration of God’s Will for Righteousness on the Earth, then true Love for Him would not be tethered to any manmade or fallen spirit theology. Unfortunately, even though we have been made free, many have paralyzed themselves with the same constructs satan uses.

Is God Love or is He Justice? Both are foundations for God’s Kingdom and cannot be separated. Yet, the church constantly separates the two, and often leans towards acts of common human love rather than being proactive for Justice. When God gave His Eden commandment, He was signaling to satan that His man would accomplish great things for Him. Everything Jesus did was to reveal, demonstrate, and establish His Love for God, not for man! Even when He showed empathy, compassion, or mercy for the sinner, it was for Justice, Judgement, and Justification. Jesus was not a social worker, but a disruptor of evil, ignorance, and disobedience. Yet, most churches focus on the fallen man rather than building up the restored Spiritual man. We see this with the pharisees, the epitome of sin; Jesus calling them vipers, seven times, in reference to the serpent, satan, indicating they were a (perfect) mirror image of the devil, hypocritical, deceptive, and narcissistic. The more one knows, the more one ought to be humble, and demonstrate Righteous Godly Love, and to exercise Justice as Jesus did. As God does! This is because God intends for Justice; first for His Throne; then the obedient; and finally for the sinners, legalists, and the Judases.

As Christians saved by the Blood, we are to no longer operate as the world does with the flesh, mind, and an unrepentant spirit; but by God’s Will, Word, and Spirit; in Faith, Hope, and Love (1 Corth. 13:13). This is the reality of having the Mind of Christ! We do this for Righteousness concerning the Law of Love, which includes Justice. Jesus said, “What justification is there to love those who love us? but to Love one’s enemy, those that hate us, there is justification before the Father” - Matt. 5:43-48. One can only demonstrate this with Righteous thoughts, words, and actions. Unlike some christians claiming they Love God; yet never cry for Justice for those taken early from the womb for selfishness, profit, and evil as stated; “The voice of your brother’s blood cries out to Me” - Gen. 4:10. This is because once in the family by Christ’s Blood; we are one Body; with all parts linked by the nerves of Christianity. (Matt. 12:50). One Father, One Christ; One Body!

Nothing is as it seems! The world has always been under the sanction of evil spirits influencing people into debasement, defiance, and death. These evil entities know that although God is Love; His end-game will be Judgment, Justification, and Justice. God will not allow defiance of His Sovereignty! This is the entire purpose of man! To bring about these tenets in God’s Name! He did it in Heaven! He started it in Genesis! And He will ultimately do it in hell! God gave three perfect, clear, and irrevocable directions: to be fruitful, to multiply, and to dominate. He never told Adam to Love! It is not until the second Adam, Jesus, that God enforced this commandment to Love, including the caveat, to Love your neighbor by loving God foremost, as stated, “the second is like (similar, depends, mirrors) it” - Matt. 22:39. This is where the average Christian misses it! For if God is perfect, His Will for man is perfect; therefore, His Declarations, Purpose, and Plans are perfect, and can never be altered, modified, or misinterpreted. As the Body, to Love each other, including the world; we must Love, Act, and Judge as God did, does, and will in our daily Christian walk. To do less would be to subvert God’s intended purpose. And to be clear, Jesus told us to judge Righteously for Justice - Jn. 7:24.

Jesus took action for Justice by destroying the vendor's wares in the Temple courts. He disregarded the hierarchy because of their unrighteousness, and as a common jew, He challenged, embarrassed, and disrespected the pharisees, sadducees, and high priests; even though He was not a formal Rabbi and had no standing. He revealed that when we are Righteously active for God’s purpose of Justice, we automatically Love God. The same when Jesus was in hell and demonstrated Justice for God’s Love as stated: “He (Jesus) made a public (parade) spectacle (mockery) of them (devils)” - Col. 2:15. Jesus literally snubbed His nose at the fallen with pride, gratification, and dignity. Spiritually, Godly Love seeks Justice against all manner of curses, sin, and demonic activities. This is why, just telling a sinner God Loves them without addressing, condemning, and remedying sin, we fall short of demonstrating the two greatest commandments. We cannot love, condone, and ignore what God has declared unlawful, unacceptable, and unrighteous, including what He hates. (Prov. 6) Yes! God hates! This is the very foundation for seeking Justice.

Is God Love first, or Justice first? Can God pass judgment without demonstrating His Love? When God created man, it was not for Love, but for His Justice. God doesn’t need man’s Love to accomplish His Will. Why? God can operate both in the Spirit as well as in the flesh. So can Angels. When lucifer fell, he established a physical kingdom on Earth. This, in effect, started the war for Judgement, Justification, and Justice, because satan is an illegal occupant, a thief on God’s creation. Yet, Eden is on the corrupted Earth, and God chose to make man, instructing him to change the land outside of it. God essentially ran a ‘covert op’ into fooling satan to start the war when he was allowed to enter the Garden. How do we know this? God gave free will out of His Love for His creations. And obedience to God can only be achieved by Righteous free will. The devil knew man was different, which prompted him to test them, resulting in disobedience, justifying God’s war. Fast forward; Jesus demonstrated this same Justification by Loving His Father, in obedience to the Cross. Because He did this with Righteous free will, God was justified to resurrect Him. Can you see the sequence? Jesus willingly accepted the cross of shame, pain, and condemnation in obedience out of Love for Justice. This allowed God to intervene against the Law of disobedience, destruction, and death. Which in turn gave God the required legal authority to do the same for us as stated: “By one man’s disobedience we are sinners, so by another’s obedience we are made Righteous” - Rm. 5:19. This entire drama is about Justice, because being self-Love; God will not tolerate disobedience to His Will. Some say, “For God so Loved the world,” indicating it was not for Justice. Yet, the original Greek meaning of world is not humanity, man, or people but order. For God so Loved ‘Order’; He sent His Son. One cannot have order without Justice.

God’s command is to Love Him, and then Love your neighbor, as all the Law depends on this hierarchy. Well, the Law requires precedent; doesn’t it? Or else there is no adjudication of the Law, resulting in randomness, innuendos, and confusion, which will be the instability of the Law. Hence, as stated, “satan, the father of lies, chaos, and destruction” - Jn. 8:44. The modern church has turned this backwards? By loving man before God. They do this by contravening the Commandments and His rules of administration with misled, corrupted feelings of empathy, compassion, and mercy. They compromise His church for the people’s sake, for superficial peace, and for acceptance; just as the high priests did with the vendors in the synagogue; resulting in Jesus throwing them out and proclaiming God’s House as stated, “not a den of thieves” - Matt. 21:13.. A reference to the followers of Dionysus (a Greek idol), who were very debased in carnal pursuits of self-love, self-indulgence, and unnatural sexual immorality. Now seen in modern churches. It should not be surprising that many deceived churches welcome with open arms these types of unrighteousness, seeking gratifications of the flesh rather than the Spirit. They unknowingly have the demon Dionysus in their churches.

Some say it's because they are blinded by the devil. This is one of the most ignorant statements used to self-justify rebellion. ignorance, and the flesh. This excuse was used by Adam, about Eve, about satan. Yet, God doesn't make junk! The buck stops with our individual actions, not with the influence of others, including evil spirits. God did not accept these flimsy excuses but pronounced judgments on satan, Eve, and Adam. (Gen. 3:14). And as stated, “work out your own Salvation” - Phil. 2:12. This is why individuals will be judged, and not as a collective of people. So stop judging the Roman Catholics and others outside your church. For God will not suffer billions to be sentenced to hell regardless of misled leadership. And just to be clear. Every church leader, priest, pastor, bishop, etc. are redeemed sinners used by God by His Grace to establish His purpose. Jesus never had a denomination. So why should Christians! You can’t know true Love and Justice when your spirit, mind, and body are clouded by theologies established by man. And as stated, “we have all fallen short of the Glory of God” - Rm. 3:23. Today, many muslims are experiencing Christ personally. That is because time is about to run out, and it's now or never for the sinner, but especially the lukewarm christians.

God’s Love is equal for the unsaved and saved, but His Justice will be harsher for the latter. This is because He expects that the saved will represent Him in all Righteousness to the world, just as His Son did. You would think God’s focus would be the unrighteous, rebellious, and disobedient, just as any father would; yet through the Bible, He constantly rebukes those claiming to represent Him. Starting with Adam (allowing Eve to sin), then Moses (allowing His people to make an image), then the pharisees (allowing the temple to be a den of thieves), including the many rebukes recorded by His prophets, and Jesus’ harsh comments to His disciples. God Loves all, but His indignation for Justice is with His people.

Jesus expressed God’s Justice before His Love. Jesus’ first miracle, the turning of the water into wine was a demonstration of this stating; “Woman; that’s not My concern, and My Hour is not yet” (Jn. 2:4.). Now; don’t get upset; but Jesus broke the fifth commandment which is to honor (respect, heed, obey) His mother, and by calling her a woman publicly; He embarrassed her. Ultimately, Jesus obeyed her as per the same commandment. There is a Revelation here, the same as in Jn. 21:15; where Jesus states to Peter; “Do you Love Me”; three times. It’s always about God’s Justice first; His Love second. To put it in perspective, God’s swift action for Justice against the rebellious angels paved the way for His Love for man. He was not punishing these angels but establishing the legwork for His self Justification, as stated, “God of the past, present, and future” - Isaiah 46:9-10. Because Love and Justice are controlled by the Law, of which God would not have a Kingdom. But by establishing Jesus’ Blood, Grace now can abound. God orchestrated this first miracle to put the world on notice for the coming Spiritual Justice. It’s a foreshadowing of what Jesus would accomplish, pointing to key contextual factors, including the “third day,” as in His resurrection, the “six water containers,” as in man’s baptism for purification, cleansing, and renewal from sin. And ultimately, the “good wine” is in the redemption, rebirth, and restoration of man.

God’s first order of business in the Garden is to establish Justice for judgment if one were to eat the apple of Knowledge. And when they disobeyed Him, He did not show mercy or compassion, but Grace. Then He judged and sentenced them in Justice. The reason for His harsh judgment was that there was no substitute or sacrifice of blood. His mercy and compassion came after He kicked them out of the Garden by allowing them to live, providing for them because of His Love, not for them, but for His Throne to continue His purpose on the Earth. They caused their punishment, but God used it for His Purpose.
