THE FINAL JUDGMENT

1. The Lord Jesus taught that there would be a Final Judgment.

It is simply called “The Judgment” (Luke 11:31,32).

2. Who will be the Judge?

God is always spoken of as Judge. “The LORD shall judge the peoples” (Psalm 7:8a).

3. Who will be judged?

a. All mankind.
b. Israel will be judged. The generation of the Lord Jesus (Luke 11:31b).

4. Two sets of witnesses will speak against Israel

a. The Queen of the South
In the days of King Solomon (Luke 11:31a; 1 Kings 10:1-9).
b. The Ninevites (Luke 11:32a; Jonah 3:5)
In the days of Jonah.

5. Who were these Witnesses against Israel?

a. The Queen of Sheba travelled a great distance to see King Solomon who was reputed for his wisdom (Luke 11:31).
b. The Ninevites repented at the preaching of Jonah (Luke 11:32).

6. Why would they be judged?

a. The Lord Jesus was far greater in wisdom than Solomon.
But He was rejected by the people.
b. The Lord Jesus was far greater than Jonah.
Yet, they people did not give heed to Him and did not repent!

7. Our challenge to believe this word of promise

“Most assuredly, I say to you, he who hears My word and
believes in Him who sent Me has everlasting life, and shall
not come into judgment, but has passed from death into life.
Most assuredly, I say to you, the hour is coming, and now is,
when the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God; and those
who hear will live. For as the Father has life in Himself, so He
has granted the Son to have life in Himself, and has given Him authority to execute judgment also, because He is the Son of Man.
Do not marvel at this; for the hour is coming in which all who are
in the graves will hear His voice and come forth—those who have
done good, to the resurrection of life, and those who have done evil,
to the resurrection of condemnation. I can of Myself do nothing. As
I hear, I judge; and My judgment is righteous, because I do not seek
My own will but the will of the Father who sent Me.”

John 5:24-30

a. We need not come into the Final Judgment.
b. We can pass from death to life.
c. Those who hear the Lord Jesus shall live.
d. All authority to pass judgment has been given to the Lord Jesus Christ.

经文:路加福音 11:31-32

最后的审判

1. 主耶稣教导将来会有最后的审判

这将称为“审判”《路加福音 11:31,32》

2. 谁将施行审判?

上帝常被称为那施行审判的。“耶和华向众民施行审判”《诗篇 7:8a》

3. 谁将受审判?

a. 全人类
b. 以色列将受到审判。主耶稣的世代《路加福音 11:31b》

4. 两组证人将要起来定以色列的罪

a. 南方的女王
所罗门王的世代《路加福音 11:31a;列王记上 10:1-9》
b. 尼尼微人《路加福音 11:32a;约拿书3:5》
约拿的世代

5. 这些要定以色列罪的见证人是谁?

a. 南方的女王从地极而来,要听所罗门的智慧话《路加福音 11:31》
b. 尼尼微人听了约拿所传的就悔改了《路加福音 11:32》

6. 他们为什么会受审判?

a. 主耶稣的智慧远比所罗门大。
但是祂却被众人拒绝了。
b. 主耶稣远比约拿伟大。
然而,众人却不听祂的话,也不悔改!

7. 我们的挑战是要相信所应许的话

24 我实实在在地告诉你们:那听我话又信差我来者的,
就有永生,不至于定罪,是已经出死入生了。
25 我实实在在地告诉你们:时候将到,现在就是了,
死人要听见神儿子的声音,听见的人就要活了。
26 因为父怎样在自己有生命,就赐给他儿子也照样
在自己有生命,27 并且因为他是人子,就赐给他行
审判的权柄。28 你们不要把这事看做稀奇。时候要到,
凡在坟墓里的,都要听见他的声音,就出来,
29 行善的复活得生,作恶的复活定罪。
30 “我凭着自己不能做什么,我怎么听见就怎么审判。
我的审判也是公平的,因为我不求自己的意思,
只求那差我来者的意思。

《约翰福音 5:24-30》

a. 我们不需要受到最后的审判
b. 我们可以出死入生
c. 听见上帝的儿子主耶稣的声音就能活且有生命
d. 审判的一切权柄都交给了主耶稣基督。
