If there's anywhere we Evangelicals need to be reminded about what the Scriptures and our ancestors say, it is the final judgment. Here are quotes from throughout Church history.
|
The Lord will judge the world without partiality. Each will receive as he has done. If he is righteous, his righteousness will precede him; if he is wicked, the reward of wickedness is before him. Take heed, lest resting in our ease, as those who are called, we should fall asleep in our sins, and the wicked prince should acquire power over us and thrust us away from the kingdom of the Lord. (Letter of Barnabas 4)
