---There are two judgment types from a human perspective: that AI type where God grabs who He likes and destroy His toys when He dislike immediately. No one watching and no one having any say.

---There is the biblical judgment where the creatures created by God was and is given free will to choose God or not. This demands a God of love, agape love, godly love, to prove Himself by display before His subjects.

---Which type do Satan prefer? The AI robot type. All dictators do. Subjects should have no say in anything the dictator is doing.

---That is the difference between Catholic and Calvinistic Judgment views and Adventist view of Judgment.

---The one is fatalistic and the other one is Christ protected as Advocate.

---The one is that it does not matter how you live, God will pick and choose His way. The other view is the biblical one that there are books in heaven, a court scene in heaven, an Investigative Judgment in heaven, an Advocate (Christ) appealing on behalf of the His saints.

---There is an atonement process going on in heaven since the books with records of the works of the faithful are covered with the blood of Christ in the presence of the unfallen worlds who do watch what is going on here, Paul said.

---It is the stigma removal process taking away the “smell” of the earthlings getting them fit for heaven.

---Wonderful is it not?

---And we are all part of this.

---It is not a pie in the sky talk. It is reality as we breathe.

---There is an evil demon going around in all Adventist congregations spreading the idea that one should drop the doctrines, change the music, change the worship style to charismatic swinging and dancing or the same, scream hallelujah and amen to show support, make a loud noise with techno-help unto the Lord, switch off preaching about the Investigative Judgment since 1844 and connect everything with the cross.

---As Calvinist Systematic Theologian Adrio König [G. Berkhouwer student and classmate of Hans LaRondelle] said: Jesus is the Eschaton and that at the cross. Period.

---1 Peter 4:17 says that the Judgment in his day did not start yet and was to start in the House of God first before the End. That was in 63-64 AD.

---The Bible is full of pre-Advent judgment descriptions. Jesus preached it in His sermons. The wedding garment investigation took place before the feast or Second Coming.

---Desmond Ford and his followers were like Calvinists skeptical about the Investigative Judgment scenario of Adventists. So was Raymond Cottrell who denied it later. So was Canright. So is every member who pull up the nose for it.

---They play dodge-ball with God. They jump around texts where God clearly indicated the Investigative Judgment and cling to their everything-at-the-cross concept they want to superimpose on every book of the Bible.

---Is your Bible out? The lesson today is an excellent overview of why we believe what we believe in a pre-Advent Judgment.

---If you church is the wrong address, you better come in line with the Biblical word of God. Very soon. Now in fact.
