Commentary on Selected Psalms

                               Psalm 33:13-15

God observes every human that he ever created. He created every one of their hearts to be good. Genesis 1:31; Genesis 1:27 (KJB) God judges every human according to their works, good and bad. Revelation 22:11-12 (KJB). But every good human has also been infected with spiritual death injected into their inner beings by the Devil. Genesis 3:15; Matthew 13:36-43 (KJB). This means every human has done some good works no matter how evil those humans may be, and every human has at least committed some sins because of the influence of the evil, spiritual death within them.

No human ever becomes totally evil. If they did, then they would be demonic, and they could commit only evil acts. Roman 3:9-20 does teach that no goodness exists in humans who commit sinful and evil acts. But taken in context, these verses mean that no human can make themselves good enough to be acceptable to God. They cannot make themselves good enough because the spiritual death within them always defeats their purpose. In order for a person to make himself acceptable to God, that person would have to perfectly obey the Ten Commandments, and that is impossible. But the purpose of the Law is to make humans aware of their sinful and evil natures so that they will put their faith in God who alone can save them.

The intention of the Devil is to cause the spiritual death he injects into every human to overpower their good natures to the extent that their good natures that God creates and loves becomes annulled, and God loses a part of His creation forever. Job 2:5; Job 2:9 (KJB). But God can never lose anything He has ever created, and His Love can never fail. Ecclesiastes 3:14; I Corinthians 13:8 (KJB). Even the maniac of Gadara, who became almost totally evil, demonstrated that he still retained his good nature when he ran to Jesus for help. If he had been totally evil, he would have run from Jesus. Luke 8:26-35 (KJB).

That is what the entire human race needs to do. They all need to run to Jesus for help. Habakkuk 2:4 (KJB). Jesus, who was and is God in human form, suffered spiritual death on the cross in the place of every human and died on the cross to take it, and all of the sins and evil that causes it, from the good lives of every human. Hebrews 2:9-18; I Timothy 4:10 (KJB). God saves the good natures of humans whom He creates and loves. God hates sin and evil, and He would never save anything that is totally evil. Psalm 45:7 (KJB). Jesus judged the Devil and all of his evil works on the cross. Jesus did not judge any of His good humans whom He loves. John 12:31-32; John 12:47-48; Hebrews 2:14-17; I John 3:8 (KJB). Jesus rose from the dead victorious over all death, Hell, and the Devil. Revelation 1:17-18 (KJB). Jesus can now give His own eternal life to all humans who become saved by His grace, and He will recreate all other good humans to return to the original righteousness that He created them to be. II Corinthians 5:21; Revelation 21:1-5 (KJB). Spiritual death in humans has never been eternal because Jesus made it temporary when He died on the cross and rose from the dead. Revelation 1:17-18 (KJB).

God did not give free will to humans so that they could use it to thwart His Will. God's Will is that every good and living human will become saved from spiritual death and the power of the Devil, some by His grace and all others by His appearance to them in the end of the world. God's Will cannot fail. II Peter 3:9; Revelation 5:11-14 (KJB). Since God's Will is that all humans come to repentance, then one can be certain that He will devise a plan that will bring all living humans to repentance. God will cause every good and living human to repent of their own free will and return to the faith that He put into them when He created them. Christ has done all that is necessary to save them all by grace or by their repentance when they see Him in the end of the world. John 5:24; Revelation 5:11-14 (KJB).

God will judge every human confined to the regions of death by their works in the end of the world. He will purge all of their evil works, and He will save all of their good and living natures because their good works will bear the evidence that they all still retain their good and living natures. God will cast their dead and evil natures into the lake of fire. Revelation 22:11-12; John 12:47-48; John 5:28-29; John 11:25-26; Revelation 20:11-15; Revelation 20:5; Revelation 21:1-5; Revelation 21:8 (KJB).

Psalm 33:15 happens to be a prophecy that God will judge all of the works of every living human, the good works and the sinful and evil works. Revelation 22:11-12; Ecclesiastes 12:13-14 (KJB).
