10 Things You Should Know about the Final Judgment
The final judgment teaches us that evil won’t triumph.
When we see the horrendous evils perpetrated in our world, we may question if those who pursue evil will finally win. Will the wicked perpetually rage and the world continue to be a place of sorrow and war? Scripture proclaims that hose who murder, rape, and terrorize others and who never turn away from evil will not get away with their wickedness forever. Goodness will finally win; justice is the last word.
The gospel doesn’t make any sense if there isn’t a final judgment.
As Christians, we proclaim that Jesus saves, that when we trust in him we will be spared from the wrath to come. But the message of salvation in Jesus is pointless if there is no judgment. Many unbelievers today are sure of one thing: at death all will be well. Everyone after death will be fine. Nothing bad will happen to any of us. But if they are right, the call to believe in Jesus for salvation is robbed of significance. We may proclaim “Jesus saves,” but what does he save us from if there is no final reckoning? One reason the gospel falls on deaf ears is because unbelievers are convinced that their response to the gospel doesn’t make any difference.
