Judgement

Judgement

One day every will face judgement from God for ever deed, whether good or evil. Some say how could a loving God judge someone buts is good new for God is upholding justice- evil must be punished.  Judgement is only necessary because its part of God process of ridding the world of evil. For that reason, God's judgement is a source of joy in the Bible because it brings deliverance for the afflicted and needy.  

In the Bible we read about times of God's judgement in response to our sins. The final day of judgement has yet to come because God does 'not want anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance' ( 2 Peter 3:7-9).  In his deep mercy, he is waiting for people to return to him.

How God will judge us:

“God will bring every work into judgment,” (Ecclesiastes 12:14). In heaven, a record is kept of our every word, thought, and action. God will examine our actions and decisions to determine what our reward will be. If we accepted Jesus as our Saviour, our sins will have been forgiven.

How we should judge:

Bible does tell us to judge. It tells us to judge according to the word of God. In so doing, we “may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect” (Rom 12:2). And we can “by constant practice to distinguish good from evil” (Hebrews 5:14).

 

 

Those who have rebelled against God and not received Christ will suffer the misery of eternal separation but those who have trusted  in Jesus will be welcomed into eternal life.
