 The laws that govern the universe are deeply embedded in the very core of existence itself. It is an undeniable truth that mocking God is impossible; His authority through natural law is always upheld, and those who deliberately attempt to undermine or defy it will inevitably face severe consequences. God cannot permit the wicked to disturb the harmony and order that form the foundation of creation, for their own standards are merely reflections of their personal biases and prejudices. Our role is limited to acting in a manner that can be seen as a sincere offering to God, a gesture of reverence and devotion. Sanctification, or the process of becoming holy, remains vital as evidence of righteousness; without it, justification—being declared right before God—loses all meaning and becomes as worthless as a "filthy rag." Furthermore, true justification is only valid when all objections and accusations against us are condemned; it depends on God's unwavering judgment. This is why genuine faith is closely linked with God's condemnation of the adversary, the enemy. It is often said that God forgives sins, as if even the most corrupt beings require His permission to commit evil, yet humanity has already fallen so far into sin that it threatens the very fabric of the world. Ultimately, it is God who limits human wickedness, restraining our destructive tendencies. Eve once advised Adam, “We must approach the devil with some kindness,” suggesting that even in confronting evil, compassion is necessary. It is unjust to treat God's law as if it were an evil force; after all, love ultimately prevails. Our flawed memories and exaggerated shortcomings in communication lead us to mistakenly believe we understand fundamental truths. However, the devil's primary aim is merely to tempt us into indulging in forbidden pleasures, such as the fruit of the tree. Since we lack moral perfection, we have nothing truly worthy to offer to God. In response, God has transformed the moral landscape by accepting our sins and imperfections as a gift—a gift He cannot refuse. When we are selfish, we tend to think that attending church, praying with family, and avoiding immoral behaviors like drinking or smoking make us virtuous, but we often overlook the fact that God's eternal condemnation of sinners remains unchanged. I have never committed a sin that, once acknowledged and corrected, was not properly forgiven. Conversely, I have never done anything wrong without at least deserving severe punishment.
