12 I saw the dead, great and small, standing in front of the throne. Books were opened. Then another book was opened. It was the Book of Life. The dead were judged by what they had done. The things they had done were written in the books. 13 The sea gave up the dead that were in it. And Death and Hell gave up their dead. Each of the dead was judged by what he had done.
14 Then Death and Hell were thrown into the lake of fire. The lake of fire is the second death. 15 Anyone whose name was not written in the Book of Life was thrown into the lake of fire.
The day of Judgement is prophesied to come and it will happen. Just like every prophesy in the Old Testament was fulfilled through Jesus Christ so now we wait for the end. What does it matter? Nothing to some, just as it is written...
Matthew 24:36-41
36 “But about that day or hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father. 37 As it was in the days of Noah, so it will be at the coming of the Son of Man. 38For in the days before the flood, people were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, up to the day Noah entered the ark; 39 and they knew nothing about what would happen until the flood came and took them all away. That is how it will be at the coming of the Son of Man. 40 Two men will be in the field; one will be taken and the other left. 41 Two women will be grinding with a hand mill; one will be taken and the other left.
There are many verses that speak of the end but does it matter to you they were written? That's the question we all must answer someday. I hope truth of the gospel of Jesus Christ is found by everyone so we can all grab hold of the gift of grace, love and mercy that extends to us today.
The time is near,
J.L.
