JUDGMENT

JUDGMENT – In the biblical sense, God’s decision on the worthiness of one to enter heaven or to be condemned to hell. Following death, all will be judged, and Christ will return again to confirm that judgment. Because of sin, no one can earn a place in heaven by his own righteousness. However, through Christ, sin is forgiven and overcome, and those who have followed Him are granted a place in heaven. ^{(Matt. 25:31 46; John 5:24; 16:8-11; Heb. 9:27; Rev. 20:11-15.)}
