When we are enlightened to see Truth we can no longer believe error. This is our "judgment day." In this light of understanding we can see what to keep in our thoughts and what to let go. We have to let go because we have had false conceptions or beliefs.

There are several parables in the Bible about the judgment day. In all, error is represented as being separated from Truth, and evil from good. The wheat, the sheep, the good and true in each, are garnered, are eternal. The tares, the goats, are sent away into the everlasting fire: meaning that all error and evil shall perish; just as in the "Gehenna," the fire that burned always outside of Jerusalem, hence called the everlasting fire, was consumed the dross of the city. The assurance in these parables is that when Truth is enthroned within us, every false sense, all dross of wrong thinking and doing shall be consumed. A beautiful promise.

Hail to our judgment day! When we, by the light of Truth, shall know what is true and discern what is false; shall be able to let go of the false belief, and cling to the Truth. In this we find the Truth of Self, and in true humility, without a thought of personal self --- of limitation, doubt or fear, we stand conscious of what God made us.

In this light we say, "I am" with a new meaning. The Infinite says, "I am and beside me is none else"; and we are enjoined to "Be still and know that I am God." (Ps. 46: 10.)
