Fear—the Fruit of Judgment

Fear is a fruit of judgment. John 16:7-15.
7Nevertheless I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send him unto you.
8And when he is come, he will reprove the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment:
The Holy Spirit will reveal what happened at the cross to mankind. When we can see and understand what happened at the cross, we will see that this is where our judgment was and remains. It’s gone. It’s nailed. The price has been paid. We should not walk in fear anymore. We are free to walk in God’s unconditional love. Many times we don’t believe that it is unconditional. We think that it is conditional. We keep looking at ourselves, at our circumstances.
We have this knowledge on the inside of us that we were born with because of the fall of man. It came from the whole old system of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. We’ve all heard it, “Well, it was an apple that Adam and Eve ate.” Some believe that it was a fairytale. Understand that the fruit is symbolic of being right according to the natural realm and we could never achieve that. It would mean that everything we ever did would have to be right or correct and we couldn’t do it. The minute that we found out that we did something wrong, we would begin to judge ourselves.
