“Nothing
in all creation is hidden from God’s sight. Everything is uncovered and laid
bare before the eyes of him to whom we must give account.” Hebrews 4:13
So many people are completely unaware
of the judgment that is coming. Even
believers don’t seem to know. According
to scripture there will be two judgments: the mercy (or judgment) seat of
Christ (2 Corinthians 5:10) for believers and the Great White Throne Judgment (Revelation
20:11-15) for all who have rejected Christ.
Nothing we do in this life goes unseen
by Almighty God. He is aware of
everything we think, say or do before it takes place. If you have chosen not to believe in the
existence of an all supreme spiritual being who created all things and provided
a way of escape from the punishment of sin, that is your prerogative. That does not preclude you from future
judgment. If all folks go to heaven
regardless of the life they’ve lived, why did Jesus have to die? If God is real and Christ truly did die in
your place for your sins, then the choice you make regarding God’s existence is
vital to your future destination.
For believers, Christ provides freedom
from sin and life everlasting; however, we must make our life count for
something. Emulating Christ is a great
start. I believe it is right and
completely appropriate to ask ourselves on a regular basis, “What would Jesus
say or do?” in any given situation. To
know what He would say or do we must become familiar with Him by reading the
Bible. I believe there is no doubt we
will all stand before either Christ or Almighty God in the end. Who you stand before is up to you. Until next time, walk with the King and be a
blessing!
