The Judgement Of God.


As Christians, we need to consider our own assumptions when it comes to thinking about God’s judgements listed in the Bible. Here are several issues to consider:
1. God is the Sovereign Creator and, therefore, has the right to do as He pleases (Psalm 135:6).
2. God created a very good world without sin or death in it (Gen. 1:31).
3. The world we now live in is a fallen world due to man’s rebellion against God (Gen. 3).
4. As a consequence of the fall we are all found guilty in Adam and held justly accountable for this (Rom. 5:12-19).
5. We do not deserve God’s mercy we deserve God’s justice (Psalm 103:10; 130:3).
6. God is Holy, Just, Righteous, Gracious, Merciful, Compassionate and Loving.
7. Both Christians and non-Christians alike daily receive God’s grace (though in different ways – Matt. 5:45) (Not my work.)
