JESUS CHRIST
(THE ONE AND ONLY TRUE GOD)

SERIES: Day 15

For the Father judges no one, but has committed all judgment to the Son,
-John 5:22 | NKJV

There are about three godly judgements: the living judgement, the dead judgement and the eternal judgement. The living judgement is the judgement that is based on the decision of a living person to accept or reject Jesus Christ as the person’s Lord and God. And this is the CONDEMNATION, that the light has come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil -John 3:19 | NKJV. The dead judgement is that knowledge of where the soul (after the death of a mortal), has, concerning the temporal place he or she is going which comes after that soul stood before God in judgement.

And as it is appointed for men to die once, but after this the JUDGMENT, -Hebrews 9:27 | NKJV. For we must all appear before the JUDGMENT SEAT OF CHRIST, that each one may receive the things done in the body, according to what he has done, whether good or bad. -II Corinthians 5:10 | NKJV. This judgment ushers the soul into either Paradise (when the soul is a saint) and Hades (when the soul is a sinner). The eternal judgement is the final decision by God concerning where all the souls of men will be eternally. This will happen in the event of the second coming of Jesus Christ or rapture (coming after the event of the Great Tribulation).

Therefore judge nothing before the time, until the Lord comes, who will both bring to light the hidden things of darkness and reveal the counsels of the hearts. Then each one’s praise will come from God -I Corinthians 4:5 | NKJV. And many of those who sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, Some to everlasting life, Some to shame and everlasting contempt. –Daniel 12:2 | NKJV. All the living, dead, and eternal judgements are done by the One and Only True God whose name is Jesus Christ. For the living judgement, the God who is the light of the world is Jesus Christ. There is no other God/god in the Bible who have declared so.

I have come as a LIGHT INTO THE WORLD, that whoever believes in Me should not abide in darkness. -John 12:46 | NKJV. Concerning the judgement of the dead, the One and Only True God whom all dead people will appear before Him, is Jesus Christ (because the dead must all appear before the judgement seat of Jesus Christ and not any other God or god). For eternal judgement, it is Jesus Christ who will judge all people by assigning their respective eternal destinations (New Jerusalem or lake of fire). Lastly the God who said He was going to prepare a place for us and after that would come and take us there was Jesus Christ.

The one and only true God who is the light of the world is no other God than Jesus Christ.
