We do not like to be judged. No one does. No one, and many, many people cannot accept that message of judgment, and that is why they do not come to God, because they do not want to be judged for their works, for their evil works, per se. They do not want this thing that God says is an abomination to Him, or what God says is evil. They do not, because they like that thing, they identify with that thing, they do not want to say, 'Hey, that is evil. They don't want to come to God. They don't like the word judgment. They don't want to be judged. It's just a thing. We all know that.
