The Lord Jesus told us, in Chapter 14 of the book of John that He will come back again, to reward everyone according to his work: the believer will inherit heaven and the sinner will be in the fire of hell. Then the prophet of Islam came to confirm that fact when he said: "As soon as the last hour comes, the Son of Mary will come back as the Righteous Judge (of the living and the dead)."
Who is really the final Judge of the living and the dead? Who is the Righteous Judge? Mohammad told us, that Christ will come again to judge the world, but he did not tell us how He will be coming back; simply because the Bible told us how. The Bible tells us that the coming of the Judge:
Jude 1:14 says, "Enoch, the seventh from Adam, prophesied about them: “See, the Lord is coming with thousands upon thousands of his holy ones"
Then, the Lord gave a frightening description of that day in Matthew 24:29-31.
Matthew 24:29-31 says, "Immediately after the distress of those day“‘the sun will be darkened and the moon will not give its light; the stars will fall from the sky, and the heavenly bodies will be shaken.’ Then will appear the sign of the Son of Man in heaven. And then all the peoples of the earth will mourn when they see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of heaven, with power and great glory. And he will send his angels with a loud trumpet call, and they will gather his elect from the four winds, from one end of the heavens to the other.
The statement quoted above goes hand in hand with the statement made by Christ, to His disciples, as He declared to them that He is the Judge of the world in John 5:22.
John 5:22 says, "Moreover, the Father judges no one, but has entrusted all judgment to the Son."
Then, the Judge tells us, on what basis He will use to judge the world in John 12:48.
John 12:48 says, "There is a judge for the one who rejects me and does not accept my words; the very words I have spoken will condemn them at the last day."
In other words, every person that has accepted Christ as personal Savior and obeyed His Word becomes one of Christ's saints; and all those who have rejected Him, and refused to accept His call, to become His followers, they will confront a frightening judgement, ending in the fire of hell.
Matthew 13:40-42 says: "As the weeds are pulled up and burned in the fire, so it will be at the end of the age. The Son of Man will send out his angels, and they will weed out of his kingdom everything that causes sin and all who do evil. They will throw them into the blazing furnace, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth."
The most important question, at this time, is: Where do you think, you will spend your eternity? But please remember, without that Righteous Judge on your side, your fate will be miserable. But He who paid your debt to redeem you with the grand Sacrifice, of Himself, He is ready to give you the privilege of becoming a child of God.
John 1:12 says, "Yet to all who did receive him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God."
Now then, if you want to guarantee your eternity, you should believe on Christ, today.
