Willingly Decide Your Own Punishment: Justice in The Kingdom of Heaven on Earth

In this post I am responding to this Comment:

If we as owners of Cheon Il Guk have a cause of action against anyone believing them to have harmed us, then such cause of action must be brought before a court of proper jurisdiction to be dealt with. Upon a lawful conviction, then a punishment may be handed down. -- Charles Hlady

That is exactly my point, if we are going on the same old way of taking people to court and putting them in prison, or forcing them to do community service, how is that an improvement over what the fallen world system is?

First issue, will be the case of corruption of the judicial system itself

And second, how people can truly change, if they are sent to a sentence unwillingly?

The difference between fallen world and Heavenly world would be, to let the person committing the sin to decide his/her own punishment (indemnity).

Hyung Jin Nim once told a story of three parents facing a misbehavior of a child. One simply forced a punishment, the other ignored the misbehavior altogether and distracted the child with some fun activity. Yet, the third one, asked the child simply: "What do you think you should do about this?"....

As Father has said conscience is the closest to us, than even God. So in Kingdom of Heaven, our job is to help each other follow the "Heavenly Law" by our conscience only.

Hence, Hyung Jin Nim recent statement (Dallas Tx):

"It is the job of the sinner to confess and reveal the details of his or her own sin, not the rest of the community"
(paraphrasing).
