T. Yea.
D. How can he judge those who do right?
T. As he does those who do wrong—by his eternal law. But wrong is judged as an evil, and right as a good. Hence, the mind that does wrong, is judged as wrong; and the mind that does right, is judged as right.
D. How can there be, then, a day of judgment?
T. The day of judgment is when God judges by his law, and not till his judgment is withheld, will that day end. I know of no end to his judgment, nor to the period in which he judges. His judgment is just, and his justice endureth forever.
D. When will the wicked be judged?
T. When they are wicked. No mind can do wrong, without receiving a just recompense of reward.
D. Of what benefit, then, is the atonement of Christ?
T. Thy wisdom will be increased, when thou shalt see the atonement in thyself, and not hope for it because another has it.
D. I do not understand thy meaning.
