Have you rejected God? Have you rejected your Maker? Are you rejecting him now, day by day? That is, in the sight of God, a monumental act of pride and an outrage. Where did you come from? Who made you? Do you really believe that you came about just by sheer accident, that there is no designer, that there is no God, no Creator? Your basic instinct tells you otherwise. Job defines the rejecter: ‘They say unto God, Depart from us; for we desire not the knowledge of thy ways’ (Job 21:14). We don't want to know God or his ways; we don't want to know about him. We want this life for ourselves, so that we can be our own masters. We are going to direct our own steps. We don't want this man to rule over us, as Christ expresses it in one parable. That is one of the reasons why we come under judgment, the rejection of God: the denial of his ownership of us.
In addition we do things constantly which are deeply offensive to the sensitivities and to the mind and tastes of Almighty God. That will bring us under judgment. We reject his standards, his ways, his commands. We come under judgment. We behave like the prodigal son who effectively said to his father, ‘You are nothing. I don't want you. I don't want to be anywhere near you. I don't want to know you. I just want the things that I can get from you, and go as far away as I possibly can. That will bring us under judgment. We have no gratitude to God, no sense of debt, no consciousness of what we owe him. We seize and steal our lives, our powers, our memories. All that will bring us under judgment.
Apart from anything else we are so proud that we convince ourselves that we can do much better in life without God. We don't need him; we have no need of him whatsoever. We can do better by ourselves. For that pride, we shall come under judgment. If we are hostile to him, slander him, join in the chorus of atheism and turn others against him, that will bring us into judgment in the last day.
