Judgment

Series: Long Story Short

David McQueenAugust 3, 2025Weekend Services

Passage: Revelation

Previous Page

This message challenges society's widespread moral relativism by highlighting humanity's inherent, instinctive understanding of absolute truth and justice. The sermon delves into the eternal reality of God's judgment, explaining that all humanity will stand before the Great White Throne, where the dead will be judged according to their deeds. For followers of Jesus, there is a separate "judgment seat of Christ," which is not for salvation but for the reward of actions done in the body, transforming fear into confidence and anticipation for that day. Ultimately, the message encourages embracing Jesus as the way, the truth, and the life, emphasizing that while God's foundational love is unconditional, its effect in an individual's life is conditional on believing and following Him, leading to grace and freedom from wrath.

Every human who has ever existed or will exist will stand before the great  where all humans will be judged. 

 

Many will stand on their , hearing the price they must pay that justice might be fulfilled. 

 

Others will come before the throne, and Jesus will stand with them not because of the good things they did but because they, in faith, committed their lives to  (1 Jn. 4:17-18) 

 

Followers of Jesus actually face a  judgement. (2 Cor. 5:10) 

 

Jesus misses nothing. The judgment seat of Christ is to give  in heaven based on how we lived this life. (2 Cor. 5:10) 

 

How we live our lives matters - matters for our eternity, matters for the eternity of
