" It is the ubiquity of God's judgment - extending to every time and place - and the universality of God's judgment - reaching every person and every principality or power - and the secrecy of God's judgment - which embraces all creation - taken together with such knowledge as there is of the character of God's judgment - namely that judgment is a facet of God's grace - that authorizes the emphasis of Saint Paul on the extraordinary freedom of the Christian, in making decisions, from anxiety about how those decisions are being judged by God.
