2459. People should never be judged in respect to their life after death on the basis of outward behavior
Clear examples were demonstrated of people I had known in the life of the body, showing that those about whom people had judged evilly in the other life are good, and those about whom people had judged well in the life of the body, are evil, because people do not know how to judge except from the outsides. Nor do they know whether [others acted] out of ignorance, nor from what motive. For the motive is known to the Lord Alone. 1748, 30 June.
