This lecture explains that accountability in the hereafter is based on inherent human faculties: intellect, discernment, the capacity for good and evil, divine knowledge within the soul, and the love of God. Even those who never received a prophetic message will be judged based on these innate qualities. God has provided humanity with the tools for moral reasoning and spiritual awakening, and this internal guidance forms the basis of divine judgment. The sending of prophets and scriptures served to complete the argument and provide clear guidance, making the test of life easier. The soul possesses inherent knowledge of and love for God, which is awakened by divine revelation.
