The writers of Scripture all confirm that a fair and impartial judgment day is consistent with the character of God who doesn’t play favorites. Jesus gives us a compelling picture of this in Matthew 25 with the separation of the sheep and the goats. To the sheep on the right, Jesus says, “Come! Notice the righteous in this story don’t say, “Boom! You mean we got it right? I don...
