AFTER THIS THE JUDGMENT

Scripture: Romans 14:11, 12 “For it is written, As I live saith the Lord, every knee shall bow and every tongue confess to God.  So then every one of us shall give an account of Himself to God.”

    The Bible tells us that there is coming a day when all men will be judged. Hebrews 9:27 says, “As it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment.”  As sure as you live, one day you’re going to give an account of your life to God.  There are different judgments that will take place. Let me mention just a few.  
    First the Bible tells us of the judgment of the cross.  In John 19:30, when Jesus cried out, “It is finished”, sin was judged for the believer.  Jesus literally became sin for us.  2 Corinthians 5:21 says, “For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in Him.” 
    Then there’s the judgment of believers.  This will take place at the judgment seat of Christ.  It takes place immediately after the rapture.  2 Corinthians 5:10 says, “For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ; that everyone may receive the things done in his body, according to that he hath done, whether it be good or bad.” This judgment is only for believers. This is the judgment of our work and our service for God.  Where we receive rewards or lose rewards! It will not be a judgment for our sins!  Our sins have already been judged on the cross! 
    There will be a great white throne judgment also.  This is the one described in Revelation 20. This is the judgment where all the unsaved dead shall stand.  All those who died without Christ as their Savior will face this judgment. The judgment will be given “out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works”. The Judge is God!  All those who are not saved never accepted the price paid for their sins, so now they have to pay.
    Which judgment will you stand at?
