So good! This is perfect clarity for all. We will all be judged and then given an eternal placement:)

I always think about how vast our visions need to be whenever I read the scripture about God telling Abram to count the stars if he can. We need to have faith as vast as those stars that God will provide even in the darkest of times and nothing seems possible.

Holly, I’ll paste here an explanation given by John Piper:
“The main point here is that Jesus raises all the dead. Let that sink in. All the dead who have ever lived will be raised from the dead by Jesus. Millions of Chinese and Nigerians and Indonesians and Germans. He will raise Julius Caesar from the dead, and Judas Iscariot, and Isaiah the prophet, and Michelangelo, and Johann Sebastian Bach, and Adolf Hitler, and Marilyn Monroe, and Kurt Cobain, and Princess Diana, and Michael Jackson, and Ted Kennedy. He will raise them, and they will stand before him. And you too.
“All these people and millions more—all people, without exception, will be raised from the dead by Jesus. Jesus is universally superior to all these people. He is universally sovereign over all these people. He holds them in being and will give existence to their decomposed bodies so that there is a continuity between the body that was and the body that will be raised. He lets no one go out of existence—there is no such loss for the righteous, and no such hope for the wicked. Jesus raises them all.”
We will all be judged by Christ at His second coming. The difference in eternal placement (resurrection of life [Heaven] or resurrection of judgment [Hell]) is determined by the evidence of believing faith in Him in our lives. Hope this helps.

I love how Jesus challenges the people about their belief in the words Moses spoke. How many times have I read scripture but haven’t actually believed scripture?? It was a convicting moment there.

What conviction in John today !

I think that the Bible is so beautiful because of the repetition and foreshadowing that it possesses. in today’s reading it talked about how the Jews did not like Jesus because he was performing miracles and healing’s on the day of the Sabbath. This is ironic because Jesus was a Jew. Later in the Bible it talks about how even though we are living in this world we will still feel alone and like outcasts because we are not going to be a part of the world. That is a great way of foreshadowing and it really helps us connect with Jesus because he was not this popular man who everyone loved and wanted to be like. Only some chose to love and be like him. So although we can get discouraged about this world and them using God’s name in vain or ripping on Christianity, we just have to remember that Jesus continued to love even when people wanted to cast stones at him and hang him on a cross.
