Justification
This is the introduction to Part II of my book New Birth — Pathway to the Kingdom of God which I am featuring here section by section. It is available on Amazon. (TGRABJ references refer to a 4-Volume series of messages under the title True Gospel Revealed Anew by Jesus.)
Part Two — Justification
As mentioned, all humans after this life pass on into the spirit world and become subject to the law of compensation. It is the law of cause and effect — all wrong actions and law-breaking bring about penalties that will have to be paid. Jesus and others in the Bible referred to this process on numerous occasions as judgment.
Matthew 12:36 — But I tell you that men will have to give account on the day of judgment for every careless word they have spoken.
In TGRABJ/2/56 (paraphrased), we find the same in different words. No one can save themselves by their own efforts from the operation of the law of compensation. This law of cause and effect operates automatically and relentlessly. Every time we sin — break any of the laws of conduct summed up by loving God and loving neighbor — there is a penalty. This penalty may not come immediately or even in this life, but ultimately will have to be paid.
As these penalties are paid, soul purification occurs and the person progresses nearer and nearer to a time and condition when the law of compensation will cease to operate on them. The purer their soul becomes, the more happiness they will experience. However, such payment and resultant soul purification may require long years of suffering. For every wrong deed, and for not doing what should have been done, each person will have to answer the law.

Other Bible passages refer to our human predicament that brings judgment or penalties of the law of compensation as curse or imprisonment:
Galatians 3:10, 22; 4:3 — All who rely on observing the law are under a curse, for it is written: ‘Cursed is everyone who does not continue to do everything written in the Book of the Law’ [because as soon as the law is broken, penalty ensues]. … The Scripture declares that the whole world is a prisoner of sin [of which we can free ourselves only through a long period of expiation.]
Yet, there is a hope. Again, in TGRABJ/2/56, we are told that while the penalties of the law of compensation cannot be avoided under ordinary circumstances, there is one exception: This is “the redemption of a man’s soul by the Love of the Father entering into it, and making it at one with His own, and like His in all the qualities that partake of the divine essence.”
The chapters in Part II deal with the various aspects of this redemption / justification through the Father’s Divine Love, how it works in this life, and what part each person has to play.
