Is Love Evil?

Is love evil, why would anyone ask a question like this? No thinking person would say love is evil, it is what keeps families together, heals relationship, and is what God calls Himself, love.

However, nations, and businesses are not run on love, they are run on laws that effectuate obedience, protection, and production, No nation could go into war with the idea of loving ones neighbor as themselves. So too for, a businesses, or a government, love would be equal to no value for its desired result of maintaining law and order.

So why are we asking this question is love evil? Well, it is because many religious groups view love as weak, although, they twist love into a legal definition so they can war with their enemy either verbal over doctrine and/or physically going to war for their country, one would have to ask the question is love evil; If this is the fruit of love Christ spoke as being e the identifying mark of his disciples?

Love Your Enemies

If one loved their enemies could they kill them, either physically, or spiritually? Yet, some religions feel a moral obligation to at least destroy their enemies by doctrinally defeating them with legal arguments. So is love evil, or perhaps when Christ Jesus said; “pray and love your enemies”, there was some hidden legal clauses, a definition as it were that a religious group could explain away in what Christ Jesus actually was saying?

Actually, Christ Jesus was murder by people that knew the bible far more than most modern day Christian's do, simply put, it was mandatory for God people Israel to know God's law from child-hood. Yet, Christ told them if they wanted to be son's of God they must love their enemies.

Matt.5:38 "You have heard that it was said, 'An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth.'{Exodus 21:24; Leviticus 24:20; Deuteronomy 19:21}
5:39 But I tell you, don't resist him who is evil; but whoever strikes you on your right cheek, turn to him the other also. 5:40 If anyone sues you to take away your coat, let him have your cloak also. 5:41 Whoever compels you to go one mile, go with him two. 5:42 Give to him who asks you, and don't turn away him who desires to borrow from you. 5:43 "You have heard that it was said, 'You shall love your neighbor,{Leviticus 19:18} and hate your enemy.{not in the Bible, but see Qumran Manual of Discipline Ix, 21-26}'

Matt.5:44 But I tell you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who mistreat you and persecute you, 5:45 that you may be children of your Father who is in heaven. For he makes his sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the just and the unjust. 5:46 For if you love those who love you, what reward do you have? Don't even the tax collectors do the same?

5:47 If you only greet your friends, what more do you do than others? Don't even the tax collectors do the same? 5:48 Therefore you shall be perfect, just as your Father in heaven is perfect.

Christ did not legally divide his words into types of enemies, degrees of sin, or for that matter kind(s) of love, no! In fact, the nation of Israel had apostatized from the truth of God by the time Christ came too earth, and yet Christ still commanded his disciples to love them. He did not teach like religions today that held people more responsible for knowing the truth. Instead Christ stated the truth, one must love their enemies if they are to perfect like their heaven Father.

Yet, this is not enough for religions, which are nothing more than governments, why governments? Because like all man made governments they must war with their enemies to protect their power, and interests. Christ not only taught the truth, he lived it by praying for those who hung him on the torture stake driving nails into his hands and feet, saying; “Father forgiven them”.

However, religious-governments will legally twist Christ words here stating he didn't really forgive those that knew better like the scribes and Pharisee's no, he rather condemned them in other place in the bible.

But many of those scribes and Pharisee's later accept the Christ, certainly being cut to the heart by Christ Jesus final words in the greatest human act of suffering imaginable, “forgive them Father”.

Laws That Build Weed Empires

The first century congregation of God, that is, the anointed follower of Jesus Christ was not formed by a power struggle, that is, corporate laws that protected and drove out those not obeying the rules. In fact, if a person is an honest reader of the bible they would find the apostle Paul having a very small group faithful to the his teaching about Christ, were Paul would lament in letter that “only Timothy had been faithful out all those he taught.

1 Corinthians 4:17 Because of this I have sent Timothy to you, who is my beloved and faithful child in the Lord, who will remind you of my ways which are in Christ, even as I teach everywhere in every assembly.

Php.2:19 But I hope in the Lord Jesus to send Timothy to you soon, that I also may be cheered up when I know how you are doing. 2:20 For I have no one else like-minded, who will truly care about you. 2:21 For they all seek their own, not the things of Jesus Christ.

This did not mean Paul did not form congregations, but we don't find the message being popular, or like the twenty one thousands religions found today upon earth, why? Because narrow and cramped is the road leading into life and few find it, because, truth is one-eighty-degrees opposite of the world, in fact, it is no part of the world, unseen by eyes of the flesh, what does this mean?

Each Christian has a choice to make, which is, what road he/she will walk upon, the narrow road, or the broad and spacious road leading into destruction, but how do we know the difference?

Simply put, the board road is built by the laws of our world, which laws are dead works for. however, those on the narrow road, or “in Christ Jesus”, this is a critical point, which is hard to understand by doctrines teaching against the Royal Law of love, what does this mean? What is means is this; no human organization can be formed without the laws of the flesh, to control it, and grow it, if on the other hand, the same organization was to be ruled by the law in Christ Jesus, which is, love, or the law of freedom, it would soon be over taken by weeds, and/or Christian's using laws of their flesh to control and grow their group.

The narrow road is governed by the spiritual law of freedom, love, it is a hard road to stay on because love does not grow or control anything, but ones own conduct. Love does not compete or vibe for position, and power, nor does it seek its own glory, nor interest, which makes is unseen, and useless to the world.

James 3:14 But if you have bitter jealousy and selfish ambition in your heart, don't boast and don't lie against the truth. 3:15 This wisdom is not that which comes down from above, but is earthly, sensual, and demonic. 3:16 For where jealousy and selfish ambition are, there is confusion and every evil deed.

The great mystery is dealing with these two conditions, one condition is the sinful flesh that is defined by the laws of the flesh, whereas, love, that is, the condition of love, which is God, is defined by the spiritual law of freedom, love. But these two are opposed as darkness is to light, neither can they dwell together nor understand each other.

Galatians 4:29 But as then, he who was born according to the flesh persecuted him who was born according to the Spirit, so also it is now.

Galatians 5:13 For you, brothers, were called for freedom. Only don't use your freedom for gain to the flesh, but through love be servants to one another.

Subsequently, when those of the flesh, and their laws, hear love, they always think of human love, which is earned by merit, and than identify God's with this sinful love based on the laws of their flesh. On the other hand, when a follower of Christ on the narrow road hears the word love, they first think of God, and His love, and try to meet it, as the highest moral standard in the universe.

James 3:17 But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceful, gentle, reasonable, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality, and without hypocrisy. 3:18 Now the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace by those who make peace.

So from this point of view, the question posed at the start, is love evil? Hence, for those of the flesh, they would say yes, because it is weak, and it fails in controlling those wicked person that abuse them, and their religions. Love to them is used as an excuse to practice every evil sin on earth, in the name of love, and/or Christ.

This thought becomes a blindness, setting their feet in to legal religious-government which standards are set by laws of the flesh in hundred of rules for protection and growth, just like all human governments.

Galatians 5:9 A little yeast grows through the whole lump.

They no longer walk by faith in God's invisible Kingdom, which, is the substance and essence of all truth and righteousness, seen by faith. Rather, they walk by sight, putting faith in laws of the flesh that has built a visible kingdom upon earth to worship in, an under using the teaching from the bible.

In this field which is world wide, weeds thrive because it has fertile soil to grow in and be water by. All living in the world wide road identify with the laws of the flesh, they are happy unless those laws of faith are challenge with a thought from the book they worship over God, the bible.

Heb. 12:22 But you have come to Mount Zion, and to the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to innumerable multitudes of angels,
12:23 to the general assembly and assembly of the firstborn who are enrolled in heaven, to God the Judge of all, to the spirits of just men made perfect, 12:24 to Jesus, the mediator of a new covenant,{Jeremiah 31:31} and to the blood of sprinkling that speaks better than that of Abel. 12:25 See that you don't refuse him who speaks.

In other words, the whole system is set up by peer pressure of pleasing men of the flesh, they are doctors of law interrupting the bible as a law book supported flesh laws, each religion-government elevates the attorney of the law to top position, as do the governments of our world does.

Subsequently, the world is blinded to the one true congregation of God, that worships in truth and spirit, what does this mean?

John 9:39 Jesus said, "I came into this world for judgment, that those who don't see may see; and that those who see may become blind."

John 9:41 Jesus said to them, "If you were blind, you would have no sin; but now you say, 'We see.' Therefore your sin remains.

Truth and Spirit.

Truth what is it to a Christian's, most would say their bible, but is it? Yes, and no, if one takes polluted water and runs it into pure water what comes out? Yes, polluted water, the polluted water pollutes both the good and bad water with same pollution.

We are what we eat and drink, when a weed Christian takes God's word the bible and puts it into a uncircumcised heart by laws of the flesh they come up with polluted truth, no matter if the bible is truth, the end result is pollution that puts them onto the wide road leading into destruction.

The only place the truth is found for Christian's is not in an argument over doctrine, it is found where God has placed it in Christ Jesus, the truth. If a Christian's is not watered from above that is Christ Jesus by the pure water of Holy Spirit they cannot understand truth. Erroneously, fleshly organizations of religion steal the position of Christ making themselves the water interpreted by fleshly laws of sin, which grow more weeds Christian's.

James 3:12 Can a fig tree, my brothers, yield olives, or a vine figs? Thus no spring yields both salt water and fresh water. 3:13 Who is wise and understanding among you?

John 4:10 Jesus answered her, "If you knew the gift of God, and who it is who says to you, 'Give me a drink,' you would have asked him, and he would have given you living water."

Presumptuously Stealing Truth

Weed watered organized religion by laws of sin steal truth, which truth is Jesus Christ, no matter what religious name they give themselves sin laws of the flesh steal the truth, glorying their own actions upon earth. Jesus Christ is the truth, the glory goes to where the Father puts His own glory in the Son, Christ Jesus, not an organization bragging about so called good works, in the name of Christ, or God, why?

1 Corinthians 1:29 that no flesh should boast before God.

1 Corinthians 4:7 For who makes you different? And what do you have that you didn't receive? But if you did receive it, why do you boast as if you had not received it?

Because God's own glory was given too Christ Jesus, so if you call yourself by YHWH or Jehovah, or any other name, the glory is stolen from Christ Jesus, until he himself turn over the Kingdom to His Father.

Heb. 1:1 God, having in the past spoken to the fathers through the prophets at many times and in various ways, 1:2 has at the end of these days spoken to us by his Son, whom he appointed heir of all things, through whom also he made the worlds. 1:3 His Son is the radiance of his glory, the very image of his substance, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself made purification for our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high;

Presumptuousness is the nature of the flesh, the flesh takes by designating a name, and than, uses every thing its power too promote that name as special. Moreover, this is the nature of all man-made groups, rather religion, government, or business, they are in a competition, vibing for self-glory, which gives them more legitimacy, and power and/or wealth.

Isaiah 40:5 The glory of Yahweh shall be revealed, and all flesh shall see it together; for the mouth of Yahweh has spoken it."

This nature, is the nature of the beast, which beast devours much flesh, to maintain it position; when that beast becomes a religion it uses the power of the bible laws too appear righteous by speak powerfully as a mouth pieces of God. But it is a false prophets, having both good and evil on the same tree, which, Christ himself stated was a lie, a good tree cannot produces bad fruit, neither can a bad tree product good fruit. This fruit from bad trees makes God's love evil, by its polluted interpretation of it.

Matt. 7:15 "Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly are ravening wolves. 7:16 By their fruits you will know them. Do you gather grapes from thorns, or figs from thistles? 7:17 Even so, every good tree produces good fruit; but the corrupt tree produces evil fruit. 7:18 A good tree can't produce evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree produce good fruit.

The Mystery of Lawlessness

The power of lawlessness is to deceive oneself into believing sin is righteousness, what does this mean? It means that all sin is lawlessness, that is, all sin!

1 John 3:4 Everyone who sins also commits lawlessness. Sin is lawlessness.

2 Thessalonians 2:7 For the mystery of lawlessness already works. Only there is one who restrains now, until he is taken out of the way.

The only place one can be sinless, is in Christ Jesus own sinless righteous life, which is, for one too be made a part of his body. No human in their fleshly body is every going to be sinless, not unless they have died in Christ Jesus, and been raised into his righteous sinless life.

Subsequently, the mystery of lawlessness is always at work in religion stealing the truth as prophets for God, and/or as a mouth piece of God's righteousness upon earth, but why?

1 John 5:17 All unrighteousness is sin, and there is a sin not leading to death.

1 John 5:18 We know that whoever is born of God doesn't sin, but he who was born of God keeps himself, and the evil one doesn't touch him.

Rom.8:1 There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who don't walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit.{NU omits "who don't walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit"} 8:2 For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus made me free from the law of sin and of death.

Those in Christ must worship in Spirit and truth, they cannot do that by walking by sight and placing faith in a group of men, which have been formed into a physical organization, why?

Simply put, because too form those groups one must use the power of sins laws, which pollutes any truth found in their group, but why? It is because God does not anoint groups, he does not anoint organization, what He does do, is anoint, and give His Spirit too His children.

1 John 2:20 You have an anointing from the Holy One, and you all have knowledge.{Or, "know what is true." Or, "know all things."}

Hence, it is the children of God that make up the body of Christ Jesus, which is a spiritual body ruled by one law, the law of freedom, love. It is only in Christ Jesus that person does not mix the two laws together which pollutes the whole mass of teaching into false religion. Moreover, one can only know the mystery of lawlessness by being in Christ Jesus.

1 Corinthians 5:6 Your boasting is not good. Don't you know that a little yeast leavens the whole lump?

1 Corinthians 5:7 Purge out the old yeast, that you may be a new lump, even as you are unleavened. For indeed Christ, our Passover, has been sacrificed in our place.

James 4:4 You adulterers and adulteresses, don't you know that friendship with the world is enmity with God? Whoever therefore wants to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God. 4:5 Or do you think that the Scripture says in vain, "The Spirit who lives in us yearns jealously"? 4:6 But he gives more grace. Therefore it says, "God resists the proud, but gives grace to the humble."{Proverbs 3:34}

The Great Mystery

This mystery is so great that it has deceived the entire world wide empire of false religion into believing that sin is righteousness of Christ Jesus, where individual promote their own good works, as righteous, believing they will earn everlasting life by such works done by laws of the flesh. Although, they sincerely believe they are serving Christ Jesus, they are not, they are stealing a name, upholding that name by doctrinal teaching by righteousness of law, which does not make them part of the body of Christ Jesus.

Subsequently, they are lawless, having sin, without remission through the righteousness of Christ Jesus, what does this mean?

The Righteousness of Christ

The idea of righteousness outside of the laws of the flesh is blinding to weed-Christians, they cannot understand what Christ Jesus righteousness is, it is a term lost in legal understanding of false religion, that is, it is a meaningless as the word love is too them.

The righteousness of Christ Jesus is fully expressed in one thought, which is, Christ righteousness replaced the righteousness of the Law of Moses, but how? The Law of Moses was a standard of justice that was impossible to meet by people born from Adam's sin, because it could not be meant, it promoted wrath between God and man, what is wrath. It is God's judgment by law that one is a sinner deserving of death, by the righteousness of the Law.

Romans 4:15 For the law works wrath, for where there is no law, neither is there disobedience.

Romans 5:9 Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we will be saved from God's wrath through him.

Where people are under judgment there is no peace between the two parties. A person cannot approach the Judger freely, because they stand condemned before them, there is no peace, peace can only come when the judgment is removed, and/or the judgment is satisfied by meeting the payment for violating the Law.

Romans 3:17 The way of peace, they haven't known."{Isaiah 59:7-8}

Hence, all sinners are under judgment, unless they can satisfy the Law by meeting it righteous requirements. This truth can be applied in any relationship of mankind, what removes the judgments, one one thing, and one thing only, love.

No matter how much a person feels content in judging by laws convicting others of crimes against God, there is only one satisfaction for their justice and wrath, love, but why? Law creates a debt, that cannot be denied, all laws created a debt too someone. How does one satisfy the debt, first by not breaking the law, and secondly, if one violates the law, a debt has to be paid.

Ephesians 2:14 For he is our peace, who made both one, and broke down the middle wall of partition.

Matt.6:12 Forgive us our debts, as we also forgive our debtors.

A Debt No Human Could Pay

The debt of sin against God could not be paid by a person sinning, and because all humans are sinners none of them qualified for the job of satisfying the Law of God fully. What satisfied the Law of God for all sinners, it was Christ Jesus own righteousness, Christ was righteous enough in himself to meet the Law of God on all points, he satisfied the contract of the Law, by his own righteousness.

Subsequently, there is no other place in heaven or upon earth to have ones sin/debt abolished, but in the life of Christ Jesus, which is in the righteousness of his imperishable life in heaven at God's right hand. This is why there can be no competing righteousness by sinful humans, what does this mean?

What it means is God does not accept your good works in the name of Christ. or Himself, as good works earning you a right to be called His child or His people, but why?

Ephesians 2:15 having abolished in the flesh the hostility, the law of commandments contained in ordinances, that he might create in himself one new man of the two, making peace.

Because you cannot earn something you never had a legal right too and you are a sinner. The only way not to be a sinner is accepting the righteousness of Christ by your faith. It cannot be earned by good works of a group, or by any other manner, but God giving you the free gift of His love, hence, in the person of Jesus Christ. Yes, love is the only thing paying the debt of our sin, not more laws convicting us of sin, but love, this is why love fulfills the Law. So is love evil? Love is evil when holding the debts of other by loving laws of the flesh more than the glory of God, which is Jesus Christ.

1 John 2:29 If you know that he is righteous, you know that everyone who practices righteousness is born of him.

1 John 3:7 Little children, let no one lead you astray. He who does righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous.

Titus 3:5 not by works of righteousness, which we did ourselves, but according to his mercy, he saved us, through the washing of regeneration and renewing by the Holy Spirit.

Philippians 3:9 and be found in him, not having a righteousness of my own, that which is of the law, but that which is through faith in Christ, the righteousness which is from God by faith.

Philippians 1:11 being filled with the fruits of righteousness, which are through Jesus Christ, to the glory and praise of God.

Those in Christ must worship in Spirit and truth, they cannot do that by walking by sight and placing faith in a group of men, which have been formed into a physical organization representing Christ Jesus righteousness, why?

Simply, because to form those groups one must use the power of sins laws, which pollutes any truth found in their group, but why? It is because God does not anoint groups, he does not anoint organization, what He does do is anoint. and give His Spirit too His children.

Subsequently, without Christ Jesus righteous, they are lawless, having sin, finding no remission sin through the righteousness of Christ Jesus, what does this mean?

Subsequently, there is no other place in heaven or upon earth to have ones sin/debt abolished, but in the life of Christ Jesus, which is in the righteousness of his imperishable life in heaven at God's right hand. This is why there can be no competing righteousness by sinful humans groups, what does this mean?

What it means is God does not accept your good works in the name of Christ. Or God Himself, as good works earned by you, giving you a right to be called His child or His people, but why?

Ephesians 2:15 having abolished in the flesh the hostility, the law of commandments contained in ordinances, that he might create in himself one new man of the two, making peace.

Because you cannot earn something you have never had a legal right too for you are a sinner. The only way not to be a sinner is accepting the righteousness of Christ life by your faith. It cannot be earned by good works of a group, or by any other manner, accept in God giving you the free gift of His love, in the person of Jesus Christ. Yes, love is the only thing paying the debt for sin, not more laws convicting us of sin, but rather love, this is why love fulfills the Law. So is love evil? Love is evil when it holds the debts of others by loving laws of the flesh more than the glory of God, which is Jesus Christ.

1 John 2:29 If you know that he is righteous, you know that everyone who practices righteousness is born of him.

1 John 3:7 Little children, let no one lead you astray. He who does righteousness is righteous, even as he is righteous.

Titus 3:5 not by works of righteousness, which we did ourselves, but according to his mercy, he saved us, through the washing of regeneration and renewing by the Holy Spirit.

Philippians 3:9 and be found in him, not having a righteousness of my own, that which is of the law, but that which is through faith in Christ, the righteousness which is from God by faith.

Philippians 1:11 being filled with the fruits of righteousness, which are through Jesus Christ, to the glory and praise of God.

Unmerited Kindness

There can be no more of confusing words to a law Christian's, as Unmerited Kindness because nothing in their world, or on the wide road is found too be unmerited. The very religion they are associated with is permeated to its top position by merited works. Nothing is free, they are in debt on every level of their lives too men in position of their the groups faith.

Their whole life is an act in meeting the rules of men in charge of their faith, most are happy enough with this hypocrisy because all parts of our world, from business to government practices the same hypocrisy, that is, living a lie, while condemning others self-righteously, while practicing the same thing.

Matthew 23:10 Neither be called masters, for one is your master, the Christ.

1 Corinthians 2:5 that your faith wouldn't stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God.

However, unmerited kindness can only be accept in truth, what does this mean? It means, one has to see themselves in light of truth, which is Jesus Christ. When a person see their own condition of sin, having no way out by earned merit of self-righteousness, they must call out to a savior, not an organization, or another man existing in sin, but to God, their creator, the God of love. Knowing they have no merit they must accept a gift of God's own love, the life, or the righteousness of Christ Jesus, earned for us, and given too us from God's kindness.

This simply act requires, not looking at man, but up to an invisible God unseen by human eyes or human or their conduct through religion, but by faith believing He is the only one that can save you from sin, and its corrupting affects in your life. This then is an act of faith, trusting God beyond man, and despite their interpretation of what salvation is.

Galatians 1:10 For am I now seeking the favor of men, or of God? Or am I striving to please men? For if I were still pleasing men, I wouldn't be a servant of Christ.

Galatians 2:20 I have been crucified with Christ, and it is no longer I that live, but Christ living in me. That life which I now live in the flesh, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself up for me.

Galatians 5:1 Stand firm therefore in the liberty by which Christ has made us free, and don't be entangled again with a yoke of bondage.

Galatians 5:4 You are alienated from Christ, you who desire to be justified by the law. You have fallen away from grace.

Colossians 1:28 whom we proclaim, admonishing every man and teaching every man in all wisdom, that we may present every man perfect in Christ Jesus.

Colossians 2:8 Be careful that you don't let anyone rob you through his philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the elements of the world, and not after Christ.

Plunder of the Temple

Those greedy for glory of God, who make themselves gods, swoop in too steal, and plunder ones faith, by illegally locking it up into darkness, and corruption creating a debt owed too them. They define by doctrines, and rules of their group the free gift of God's love unearned kindness by merited. However, teaching instead, you can muster in your own will, by promoting good works done for their group; earning the unmerited gift of YHWH

This plundering of ones faith started while Christ Jesus was on earth, to this self-same day, by the evil ones agents, set upon making themselves into the temple of God upon earth, but how?

Simply put, all Christian's faith is trusting in the unseen Kingdom of God, not in man made kingdoms, religious, or otherwise. Hence, God's own judgment of us is not a composite judgment of a group, it is an individual love of God, and judgment by our individual faith in Christ Jesus, the truth.

For Satan agents too plunder faith, that is, the temple of living God, they have to create fear, inspiring material object for the sight of men to strike fear into the flesh, so they can gain control of it. Fear is the power of sin laws, fear of judgment, by governments, religion. or business, which control peoples lives, by debts.

This debt creates a world of merit, where one is always proving, and earning a right of freedom from debt by human standards, which laws are called laws of the flesh. The plundering of God's temple happens when we walk by sight pleasing men over the unseen King Jesus Christ. The whole mystery of religious institution is intimation by power, power gained through laws of the flesh, elevating them, and/or destroying enemies, the enemies of their group. Once a person fears man more than God, death and plunder of the temple of God has been accomplish, no matter how noble or specious the legal argument is for the fear.

No Fear In Love

Does it require faith to believe there is no fear in love? Yes, it does, why? Because God is love, and we know God does judge, so indeed what is the apostle John speaking too when he make such a profound statement?

1John 4:18 There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear, because fear has punishment. He who fears is not made perfect in love.

John is speaking to a truth, which is, there is no judgment in Christ Jesus righteousness, that is, all of God's children have been made a part of. In other words, when we stand before God in our own righteousness, we have fear of judgment, because we cannot be good enough by our good works, however, if we rest in what Christ Jesus did, by faith, which is, trusting God's as love, we have no judgment.

It is this perfecting of our faith and understanding of truth, which means, comparing our own righteous in light of Christ Jesus that we humbly accept the unmerited kindness of God. If we are still trying to please God by some good work we perform, in order too earn God's love, we are judged by our own merit that creates fear of judgment by God's righteous standards.

1Cor.11:28 But let a man examine himself, and so let him eat of the bread, and drink of the cup. 11:29 For he who eats and drinks in an unworthy manner eats and drinks judgment to himself, if he doesn't discern the Lord's body. 11:30 For this cause many among you are weak and sickly, and not a few sleep. 11:31 For if we discerned ourselves, we wouldn't be judged. 11:32 But when we are judged, we are punished by the Lord, that we may not be condemned with the world.

The very spirit of fear should tells us we are trying to earn something by our own good effort. In other words, we are not resting in Christ Jesus righteousness, but our own, trying to prove we are worthy of life. Those in false religion live on fear, and promote fear from their own fear, lying, and denying, calling judgment love, when in fact, it is nothing more than protection for self-preservation.

Worhty of God love?

Because false religion is about merit and debt, it cannot believe YHWH could love some one without effort of good works, everything in their world is about merit, all human love is based upon merit of earning it, they hate this truth, which is God's love cannot be earned, it must be given. God gave us the human race love, long before any of us came into this world, His did by sending us His Son Jesus Christ to die for us. This act of love was not earned, it was given from God's own love, no more so than you earned the right by good works to be born into this world from your parents.

Worthiness, of God's love, does not come from us, it comes from God's love, a superior law that encompasses all righteous, goodness, and justice. God love is the law of the living and the spirit world, it is life, and it is given freely. Because it is given free, all we can do is love back, and show our own appreciation for God's unmerited kindness; we have nothing else to offer God.

In other words, a person could devoutly follow every commandment of God, hand over their body for destruction to uphold God's law, feed the poor, teach the world the bible, but without love it means nothing at all; not love for each other, but love for God's unmerited gift too us in Jesus Christ.

We cannot be worthy enough to please God, we can put faith in God's love too us in Jesus Christ, which does please God very much, giving honor and glory to Him alone for such kindness. The fact that our heart moves us to help other, because of God's own love is proof we are in Christ Jesus, not that we earn the right, or that we must, believing if we don't we lose God's love, no!
