Subject: psalms... judgement chapter 1 verse 5 |
Bible Note: Beja, I've been following your discussion with Ed and I think you're missing the fact that what Ed is saying is not that there's not a future judgment, but that there is no need of one. I think he agrees that scripture clearly states that there is a Throne judgment of all the unsaved, he's just simply stating what scripture also says, when the unrepentant dies in his/her sins, judgment at that moment is passed, the day of salvation for that person has come and gone. Because he is right in that there really is no need of a judgment and because you are right in that there is indeed a future judgment it gives me hope to think that because the latter judgment is on the "deeds" of the unrepentant, that perhaps there are levels of punishment, that the "good person" who just happened to not be a saved person is not judged or punished equally with the truly evil unrepentant. (As there are different rewards and crowns to be handed out to His own according to their works or deeds, hopefully there will be lesser and greater degrees of punishment for the unsaved also according to their works and or deeds. There are some mighty fine unsaved people who have lived in this world and done wonderful things for humankind.) |
