“Take ye heed, watch and pray: for ye know not when the time is” – Mark 13:33
Judgement waits for all of us but no one knows when it will come. It is yet another appointment that we cannot avoid no matter our beliefs and opinions. We must die and give account to the Lord for our wretched lives.
On the Day of Judgement, we will account for what we did for the Lord when He gave us the chance to work for Him. It is not enough to be born again. You must also work for God because you will account for the life you lived in your earthly body. This judgement is something we must look forward to and live in such a way that that day will not be a day of grief and regret. “Obey them that have the rule over you, and submit yourselves: for they watch for your souls, as they that must give account, that they may do it with joy, and not with grief: for that is unprofitable for you” (Hebrews 13:17).
Another reality about judgement is that some people start paying for their sins earlier than others (1 Timothy 5:24-25). Some people commit sin and seem to get away with it. God has a particular time of judgement for everyone. You may commit crimes with someone who has judgement day set for somewhere in the future whilst your judgement day is set for much sooner. It is these differences in judgement dates that make it seem as though some people get away with sin whilst others seem to suffer so much after one little crime. All this goes to emphasize the truth that every one of us has a different timetable for different events that God has predetermined.
