Dear Brothers and Sisters in IAUA (ee-ah-oo-ah) our Father,

Greetings on this day of preparation for the weekly Sabbath. I pray this newsletter finds you in good health and happy in the service of IAUA. This is the 17th day of the 5th month of the Biblical Calendar in the estimated year 6020 Anno Mundi.

The Fall Sabbaths begin in 6 weeks and 1 day on the 1st day of the 7th month (Saturday, September 3rd of the 2016, Gregorian Calendar, at sunset Friday, September 2nd).

On God's Calendar the Biblical month begins on the global day after lunar conjunction. The Biblical year begins with God's New Year's Day (Passover) after the spring equinox (Spring Passover Rule). The Millerite Calendar (Spring New Moon Rule) is a month late this year. The Calculated Rabbinical Calendar is also a month late.


I was pondering God's love and His justice. It probably started while meditating on our Savior's words to Nicodemus. These are very instructive because Nicodemus was a religious leader. Our Savior began immediately with the basics of 1st century present truth.

John 3:9-10 (FTCABE)
9 Nicodemus responded, "How can these things be?"
10 Jesus said, "You are a teacher of Israel, but you do not know these things?"

He moved immediately to advanced elements of 1st century present truth.

John 3:14-21 (FTCABE)
14 "As Moses lifted up the snake in the wilderness, the Son of man must be lifted up.
15 So that whoever believes in him should not perish, but have eternal life.
16 Because God loves the world so much, He gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
17 Because God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through him might be saved.
18 He that believes in him is not condemned. He that does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only Son of God.
19 This is the condemnation. Light comes into the world, but men love the darkness rather than the light, because their deeds were evil.
20 Everyone that does evil hates the light, and does not come to the light, because his deeds should be reproved.
21 But, he that does truth comes to the light, that his deeds may be made clear, that they are done in God."

These verses speak of God's love for everyone. Notice that everyone should have eternal life. However, those that refuse to believe what He teaches and do what He asks us to do will not believe in Him. They may claim to believe but their actions show the truth.

Luke 6:46 Why do you call me, "Lord, Lord", and do not do the things I say?

Our Savior was very clear in His last words to His disciples just before He was taken for the crucifixion.

John 14:15 "If you love me, keep my law."

Today, the denomination of the Three Angel's Messages denies part of His law. In His own words, because our Savior was the God of the Old Testament, He declares it is His command.

Malachi 4:4 "Keep the Law of Moses, my servant, which I commanded to him in Horeb for all Israel, the statues and judgments."

Therefore, judgment comes to the wicked by their own choice. Teachers spend countless hours trying to explain the difference between God's love and His justice. I have come to the conclusion that God's love and justice are the same thing. They are totally identical. Satan's deceptions cause some students of the Bible to be confused by the apparent harshness they see in this text, as an example.

Exodus 20:5-6
5 You must not bow down to them, or serve them. I am IAUA your God, I will not allow my honor to be given to another. I visit the results of the iniquity of the fathers on the children to the third and fourth generation of them that hate me.
6 I show mercy to thousands of them that love me and keep my commandments.

They mistakenly declare it is unjust for God to punish the children for the sins of the fathers. They are unaware that God specifically commanded that the children are not to be punished for the sins of the father. They overlook the distinction that only those who continue to hate Him suffer the results of generational sin. God's mercy is extended to those who love Him and they will be able to escape generational sin.

Deuteronomy 24:16 Fathers shall not be put to death for their sons, nor shall sons be put to death for their fathers; everyone shall be put to death for his own sin.

God's love and His justice are identical because His love/justice allows those who do not want to a part of His people, harming themselves and others, to suffer the results of their own choices and be blotted out.

How sad and ignorant it is to think that God could allow the wicked to continue hurting themselves and others with their sin. They refuse to follow God's Law of Love that guarantees everyone is happy without causing any harm to anyone.

God allows sin to continue for a short period of time so that nobody will have any doubt or misunderstanding about the results of sin. Six thousands year of the pain and suffering of sin are nothing compared to our eternal happiness. He limits the results of sin to protect all His people, wicked and righteous. The wicked see this as acceptance and permission, to their own destruction. God has many promises to the righteous that He is with them and sees them through this short trial.

How do you see God's justice?

I pray we may all continue to seek love, peace, and unity in truth preparing for the soon coming of IAUShUO (ee-ah-oo-shoo-oh) Messiah, the Son of God.
