๐ Condemnation: Declared Guilty! The Hilarious Heaven and Hell Verdict ๐
Expanded Definition ๐
Condemnation is the divine version of getting called out, but with much bigger cosmic consequences. In religious parlance, it is the declaration that one is guilty of wrongdoing, ending in punishment by a deity or deities (who apparently never miss an episode of “Human Sins and Omissions”). Essentially, condemnation means you’ve wrecked the divine rulebook and are now due for some serious celestial spankings.
Meaning ๐ญ
Condemnation, in a less divine but equally biting sense, is what happens when Aunt Gertrude catches you snagging the last piece of pie at Thanksgiving. You are deemed guilty and subsequently find yourself staring down the Barrel of Judgment (aka her glare) with inevitable doom awaiting (no dessert for you!). On a more serious note, theologically, it’s God’s way of saying, “You messed up!” And the stakes? Eternal consequences without Divine Netflix and Chill.
