The prophet Jeremiah, in warning the Southern Kingdom of Judah of the impending wrath of God, told the

people that the evil that Israel and Judah had done in provoking the Lord to wrath they had “done against

themselves” (Jeremiah 11:17). When we consider the various stories of sin and judgment throughout the

Bible we can only conclude that those upon whom the wrath of God fell got exactly what they deserved.

Adam and Eve, Cain, the men of Sodom and Gomorrah, Pharaoh, Israel and Judah, they all acted in such a

way that only hurt themselves.

The natures of mankind and God have not changed and it is important for you and I to never forget that sin

only hurts us and never benefits us. And while we all sin and continue to fall short of the glory of God

(Romans 3:23) we need to remember that God has provided a way in which we can be saved from ourselves

(Titus 2:11–12). And there is an intimate relationship between the grace of God, faith, and works (James

2:26). We respond to Lord and His sacrifice by what we do versus what we did. This is brought about by the

act of repentance and is the difference between the old man/life and the new man/life.

So when we stand before God in the Day of Judgment we will not do so to stand trial for we are living the

trial now. Once we die, or if they Lord returns first, the judgment of guilt or exoneration will be sealed. So

what happens at that Last Day?

The first consideration is the fact of separation: While here on earth the saved and the lost are mingled

together (Matthew 13:30, 47–49). Physical death only separates us temporarily, but when Jesus returns all

will be raised and a complete and final separation will take place (Matthew 25:31–46).

The second concern is that of proclamation. Judgment Day is about sentencing. Punishment or reward will

be passed upon every person. When we die and enter the intermediate state it is primarily a private matter.

But on that day Jesus will publicly proclaim,“come” or “depart,” and everyone will here and know. You

may fool others while you are alive and they may continue to be deceived after your death. But you are only

fooling and hurting yourself.

While these two purposes are certain, they would not necessarily be essential. So there must be a deeper

meaning to the judgment of mankind. The third, final, and most important intent is that of vindication. Not

our vindication, but God’s. The final judgment will demonstrate the righteousness and impartiality of God

and no one will be able to honestly say, “That’s not fair!” They may beg, plead, and cry, but God is just and

righteous. Everyone will be “without excuse” (Romans 1:20; 2:1), the will “have their mouths

closed” (Romans 3:19), and everyone will glorify God!

You can live in disobedience and rebellion but you are only hurting yourself. The wise man hears and obeys

(Matthew 7:24–25) and lives to hear God say, “Well done, good and faithful servant” (Matthew 25:23).

He was a man of few words but made them count. "Preach the Word" was a

very familiar slogan of our late brother Loy Mitchell who spent 42 years preaching

in Zimbabwe. His passing on has left a yawning gap in the Lord's vineyard in this

country. Loy loved the people of Zimbabwe so much that he ended up grasping

and preaching in one of the local languages without an interpreter. His sermons

were always full of illustrations which made it easier for people to understand

God's Word. Even if Loy was laid to rest in Texas but we know that his heart will

always be in Zimbabwe as he will be well remembered for a a long time to

come by thousands of Christians in Africa and Zimbabwe In particular . May this

gallant Christian receive his eternal reward on that Great Day!
