Judged according to our works - Part 2

This message is Part 2 of 3 messages devoted to the phrase “… judged according to our works …” in all the ways it has been delineated in the Bible. If you began listening to this message from the beginning, then you know that we have just concluded Part 1 which began in the book of Proverbs and ended in Mark. Part 2 will begin in John and end in 1 Timothy. And then we will conclude the message in Part 3 which will take us from 2 Timothy to Revelation.

Jesus’ message is clear. To realize our hope, we must attend to the will of God to the best of our ability, and repent when we fail. And most New Testament authors, and Jesus, indicate that we will all be judged according to the works we do here on earth. If we do our best to attend to the will of God, and repent when we fail, then we’ll realize our hope. If we don’t, then we will fail to realize our hope.

This message addresses the phrase “… judged according to works,” in all the various forms it may be presented. In our search for our hope, … and in considering these phrases, we ask that everyone please remember all the evidence presented thus far regarding “works” and all the points established from parables and stories regarding Jesus’ expectations of us, … and one of the best is found in Matthew 25, in which, at the end of the chapter he indicates who will be permitted to enter the kingdom, those of us who’ve fed the hungry, provided drink to the thirsty, shelter to the homeless, clothes to the naked, blankets to the cold, and ministering to the imprisoned and those of diminished spirit.

Those of us who fail to demonstrate love, … and these qualities he identifies … specifically, “… shall go away into everlasting punishment …”
