Creating clarity
Since nobody is perfect and we all make mistakes, we must know that the Creator is most merciful.
However, sometimes we must consider if those who claim to follow the Abrahamic tradition of Judaism, Christianity and Islam are deceiving the rest of us as their actual behaviour oppose belief.
Example, the Zondo Commission revealed corruption on a huge scale suggesting that those who involved, lack humanity, had no regard for anyone and are unfazed by the misery they created.
As we reach stage 6 load-shedding, 50 million suffer whilst those who crippled ESKOM enjoy our tax.
In this context, we must ask why some political and religious leaders accept donations from those with corrupt integrity? Also, why do some believe they can buy favour with God by using the profits of crime to pardon themselves? Those who think that Jesus etc. suffered so that others profit from crime and buy salvation with a donation must rethink and study the costs of such ignorant thought.
What am I talking about?
On death, only two things remain, that is your good and evil deeds. When you harmed or abused etc. people, your good deeds are taken and given to your victims. When you have insufficient good deeds, the evil deeds of those you harmed, abused are taken and added to your account.
Those who think they can buy salvation with confession or donation must know that those who were harmed are eligible to reparation. This is Abrahamic divine justice and any other belief is residue of paganism which originated in Pharaoh’s Egypt where it was stupidly believed you can buy salvation.
Therefore those who stole from ESKOM and government etc. must know, they must return what they stole including profits made with corrupt money. Proceeds from crime cannot be sanitised and must be repaid in full. All debt remains tied to your account and when you die, either your family must pay the debt otherwise the debt remains with you until its owners collects in the afterlife.
Corrupt politicians, officials, lawyers, accountants, builders, motor mechanics and any business etc. that over-charges or steals etc. must know that in the afterlife there is no intercession. Only the quality and quantity of your good and evil deeds matter. Your stolen wealth means absolutely nothing and it is much better to return the stolen wealth and settle all debt before it is too late.
Logic and even science suggest that everything that a person does, has results and consequences and often these are unexpected. Those who reject the afterlife must ask themselves if taking the risk of rejection is worth it. Logic suggests that everything in the universe oddly works within a balance.
