The coming JUDGMENT

Psalm 9:7

King James Version

7 But the Lord shall endure for ever: 

he hath prepared his throne for judgment.


This post is not to create fear.

Rather, to encourage awareness.

And to have love and respect for GOD.

For JUDGMENT will surely come.

As sure as the Bible is GOD-inspired, so shall it be.

Who has power over all nations?

Who judges all people?

How shall we be judged?

What will we be judged for?

Scripture has the answers.

First, what does JESUS say?

Matthew 12:35-37

King James Version

35 A good man out of the good treasure of the heart 

bringeth forth good things: 

and an evil man out of the evil treasure 

bringeth forth evil things.

36 But I say unto you, 

That every idle word that men shall speak, 

they shall give account thereof 

in the day of judgment.

37 For by thy words thou shalt be justified, 

and by thy words thou shalt be condemned.


John 3:16-17

King James Version

16 For God so loved the world, 

that he gave his only begotten Son, 

that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, 

but have everlasting life.

17 For God sent not his Son into the world 

to condemn the world; 

but that the world through him 

might be saved.


John 3:18-19

King James Version

18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: 

but he that believeth not is condemned already, 

because he hath not believed in the name 

of the only begotten Son of God.

19 And this is the condemnation, 

that light is come into the world, 

and men loved darkness rather than light, 

because their deeds were evil.


John 8:24

King James Version

24 I said therefore unto you, 

that ye shall die in your sins: 

for if ye believe not that I am he, 

ye shall die in your sins.


Revelation 22:12

King James Version

12 And, behold, 

I come quickly; 

and my reward is with me, 

to give every man 

according as his work shall be.


Second, what does the rest of Scripture say?

Psalm 9:8

King James Version

8 And he shall judge the world in righteousness, 

he shall minister judgment to the people 

in uprightness.


Psalm 9:16

King James Version

16 The Lord is known by the judgment 

which he executeth: 

the wicked is snared 

in the work of his own hands. 

Higgaion. Selah.


Psalm 9:17

King James Version

17 The wicked shall be turned into hell, 

and all the nations that forget God.


Isaiah 45:22-23

King James Version

22 Look unto me, and be ye saved, 

all the ends of the earth: 

for I am God, 

and there is none else.

23 I have sworn by myself, 

the word is gone out of my mouth in righteousness, 

and shall not return, 

That unto me every knee shall bow, 

every tongue shall swear.


Romans 2:2-3

King James Version

2 But we are sure that the judgment of God 

is according to truth 

against them which commit such things.

3 And thinkest thou this, O man, 

that judgest them which do such things, 

and doest the same, 

that thou shalt escape the judgment of God?


Romans 2:4-6

King James Version

4 Or despisest thou the riches of his goodness 

and forbearance and longsuffering; 

not knowing that the goodness of God 

leadeth thee to repentance?

5 But after thy hardness and impenitent heart 

treasurest up unto thyself wrath 

against the day of wrath and revelation 

of the righteous judgment of God;

6 Who will render to every man 

according to his deeds:


Romans 14:10-12

King James Version

10 But why dost thou judge thy brother? 

or why dost thou set at nought thy brother? 

for we shall all stand 

before the judgment seat of Christ.

11 For it is written, 

As I live, 

saith the Lord, 

every knee shall bow to me, 

and every tongue shall confess to God.

12 So then every one of us 

shall give account of himself to God.


2 Corinthians 5:10

King James Version

10 For we must all appear 

before the judgment seat of Christ; 

that every one may receive the things done in his body, 

according to that he hath done, 

whether it be good or bad.


Hebrews 9:27

King James Version

27 And as it is appointed unto men once to die, 

but after this the judgment:


Hebrews 13:4

King James Version

4 Marriage is honourable in all, 

and the bed undefiled: 

but whoremongers and adulterers 

God will judge.


1 Peter 4:5-6

King James Version

5 Who shall give account to him that is ready 

to judge the quick and the dead.

6 For for this cause was the gospel preached 

also to them that are dead, 

that they might be judged according to men in the flesh, 

but live according to God in the spirit.


1 Peter 4:17

King James Version

17 For the time is come 

that judgment must begin at the house of God: 

and if it first begin at us, 

what shall the end be 

of them that obey not the gospel of God?


1 John 2:1-2

King James Version

2 My little children, 

these things write I unto you, 

that ye sin not. 

And if any man sin, 

we have an advocate with the Father, 

Jesus Christ the righteous:

2 And he is the propitiation for our sins: 

and not for ours only, 

but also for the sins of the whole world.


Revelation 20:11-15

King James Version

11 And I saw a great white throne, 

and him that sat on it, 

from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away; 

and there was found no place for them.

12 And I saw the dead, 

small and great, 

stand before God; 

and the books were opened: 

and another book was opened, 

which is the book of life: 

and the dead were judged 

out of those things which were written in the books, 

according to their works.

13 And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; 

and death and hell delivered up the dead 

which were in them: 

and they were judged every man 

according to their works.

14 And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. 

This is the second death.

15 And whosoever was not found 

written in the book of life 

was cast into the lake of fire.


Revelation 22:10-11

King James Version

10 And he saith unto me, 

Seal not the sayings of the prophecy of this book: 

for the time is at hand.

11 He that is unjust, let him be unjust still: 

and he which is filthy, let him be filthy still: 

and he that is righteous, let him be righteous still: 

and he that is holy, let him be holy still.
