Judgment is not a Threat; It’s a Promise

Well, it seems that the Devil’s minions are in a panic these days over the recent alleged threats being leveled at Judge Matthew Barrett, et al, over him sentencing Mrs. Tina Peters.

Peters was the Mesa County Colorado Clerk and Recorder who received a nine-year prison sentence at the hands of Barrett for exposing election fraud during the 2020 Presidential Election.

Of course, Judge Barrett, an appointee of radical Leftist Colorado Governor Jared Polis, did his due diligence by excluding evidence that would have exonerated Peters, but that is what justice amounts to these days in the new Communist-like court system.

Anyway, now, it appears, several “threats” against Barrett have been made, and of course, all the Leftist propagandists and their Trump Derangement Syndrome sycophants are sensationalizing those “threats,” as if anyone who would dare support Mrs. Peters must also be imprisoned too.

They are all a threat to democracy, don’t you know?

Little do all the wicked realize that their day before The Judge is coming, and that is no threat; it is a promise.

According to Psalm 37:12-13 we read,

The wicked plots against the righteous

and grinds his teeth at him,

but the Lord laughs at the wicked,

for he sees that his day is coming.

Of course, Jesus made it perfectly clear that not only would everyone give an account of their lives, but that he would be The Judge before whom all will stand when sentencing comes.

I tell you, on the day of judgment people will give account for every careless word they speak, for by your words you will be justified, and by your words you will be condemned (Matt 12:36-37).

For the Son of Man is going to come with his angels in the glory of his Father, and then he will repay each person according to what he has done (Matt 16:27).

Again, no threat; a promise.

The Apostle Paul echoed as much when he wrote, “So then each of us will give an account of himself to God” (Rom 14:12).

And if that is not enough, we get a glimpse of what that Judgment will look like in, of all places, the Book of Revelation.

You know, that book that so many tend to avoid because the imagery is just too confusing and obscure to be worthy of attention.

But, for those with ears to hear and eyes to see, the message is quite clear, and God is not bluffing, nor sending a mixed message.

Then I saw a great white throne and him who was seated on it. From his presence earth and sky fled away, and no place was found for them. And I saw the dead, great and small, standing before the throne, and books were opened. Then another book was opened, which is the book of life. And the dead were judged by what was written in the books, according to what they had done. And the sea gave up the dead who were in it, Death and Hades gave up the dead who were in them, and they were judged, each one of them, according to what they had done. Then Death and Hades were thrown into the lake of fire. This is the second death, the lake of fire. And if anyone’s name was not found written in the book of life, he was thrown into the lake of fire (Rev 20:11-15).

But as for the cowardly, the faithless, the detestable, as for murderers, the sexually immoral, sorcerers, idolaters, and all liars, their portion will be in the lake that burns with fire and sulfur, which is the second death (Rev 21:9)

So, while some persons might be culpable for issuing illegal or malicious “threats” against Judge Barrett or District Attorney Dan Rubenstein, who prosecuted Mrs. Peters, or perhaps the egregious Colorado Secretary of State Jena Griswold, or maybe even Colorado’s sexual pervert of a Governor, Jared Polis, one thing is certain; they are all going to stand before their Judge and give an account of their wickedness.

There will be no exclusions nor distorting of evidence.

There will be no exceptions or appeals.

The sentence will be final.

And unless they have a miraculous change of heart between now and then, hell will be burning that much hotter once they enter it.

That is not a threat.

It is a promise.

Reader take heed.
