In FATHER’S Master Plan, HE includes what is called The Day of Judgment!
Jesus warned us of this specific day more than once. The “Day of Judgment” that Jesus spoke about is the future time when God judges all people — rewarding righteousness and condemning evil. Jesus referred to it multiple times in the Gospels yet how often do you hear of these warnings?
Jesus spoke in Matthew chapter 10:
14 And if anyone doesn’t listen to you and rejects your message, when you leave that house or town, shake the dust off your feet.
15 Mark My Words, on the day of judgment the wicked people who lived in the land of Sodom and Gomorrah will have a lesser degree of judgment than the city that rejects you, for the people of Sodom and Gomorrah did not have the opportunity that was given to them!
And in Matthew chapter 11:
21 He said, “How tragic it will be for the city of Korazin! And how horrible for the city of Bethsaida! For if the powerful miracles that I performed in Korazin and Bethsaida had been done in Tyre and Sidon, they would have humbled themselves and repented, and turned from their sins.
22 Tyre and Sidon will be better off on judgment day than you!
23 And Capernaum—do you really think you’ll be exalted because of the great miracles I have done there? No! You’ll be brought down to the depths of hell because of your rejection of Me. For if the miracles I worked in your streets were done in Sodom, it would still be standing today!
24 But I tell you, it will be more bearable for the region of Sodom in the day of judgment than it will be for you.”
And in Matthew chapter 12:
36 You can be sure of this: when the day of judgment comes, everyone will be held accountable for every careless word he has spoken.
The above Words of Jesus show: the future, people will give account, even words matter!
The 25th chapter of Matthew contains much revelation about the last days. First, the parable of the wise and foolish virgins refers to both those who were prepared for the second coming of Christ as well as those believers who were ill-prepared… they were foolish and were rejected!
Next, Jesus spoke of the parable of the talents. There were three servants (believers) mentioned. The first two were productive for the Kingdom but the last believer did nothing. Upon His return, Jesus judged the results and spoke about the unproductive servant:
26 “But His Master said to him, ‘You’re an untrustworthy and lazy servant! If you knew I was a shrewd and ruthless business man Who always makes a profit, why didn’t you deposit My money in the bank?
27 Then I would have received it all back with interest when I returned.
28 But because you were unfaithful, I will take the one thousand gold coins and give them to the one who has ten thousand.
29 For the one who has will be given more, until he overflows with abundance. And the one with hardly anything, even what little he has will be taken from him.’
30 “Then the Master said to His other servants, ‘Now, throw that good-for-nothing servant far away from me into the outer darkness, where there will be great misery and anguish!’ ”
After these two parables, Jesus speaks about the judgment of Nations. He separates people into two groups:
31 “When the Son of Man comes in His glory, and all the Holy angels with Him, then He will sit on the Throne of His glory.
32 All the nations will be gathered before Him, and He will separate them one from another, as a shepherd divides his sheep from the goats.
33 And He will set the sheep on His Right Hand, but the goats on the Left.
34 Then the King will say to those on His Right Hand, ‘Come, you blessed of My Father, inherit the Kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world:
35 for I was hungry and you gave Me food; I was thirsty and you gave Me drink; I was a stranger and you took Me in;
36 I was naked and you clothed Me; I was sick and you visited Me; I was in prison and you came to Me.’
37 “Then the righteous will answer Him, saying, ‘Lord, when did we see You hungry and feed You, or thirsty and give You drink?
38 When did we see You a stranger and take You in, or naked and clothe You?
39 Or when did we see You sick, or in prison, and come to You?’
40 And the King will answer and say to them, ‘Assuredly, I say to you, inasmuch as you did it to one of the least of these My brethren, you did it to Me.‘
41 “Then He will also say to those on the Left Hand, ‘Depart from Me, you cursed, into the everlasting fire prepared for the devil and his angels:
42 for I was hungry and you gave Me no food; I was thirsty and you gave Me no drink;
43 I was a stranger and you did not take Me in, naked and you did not clothe Me, sick and in prison and you did not visit Me.’
44 “Then they also will answer Him, saying, ‘Lord, when did we see You hungry or thirsty or a stranger or naked or sick or in prison, and did not minister to You?’
45 Then He will answer them, saying, ‘Assuredly, I say to you, inasmuch as you did not do it to one of the least of these, you did not do it to Me.’
46 And these will go away into everlasting punishment, but the righteous into Eternal life.”
Everyone will be evaluated and summoned to court where their Eternal destiny is decided. It will be sudden, certain, personal, based on Truth, and Eternal!
