Juízo
O juízo de Deus é manifestação de sua justiça e soberania. Ele julga o mundo, julga as nações e julga cada coração com perfeita equidade e misericórdia.
O juízo de Deus
Deus é juiz justo que prova os corações. Seu juízo é verdadeiro e alcança toda obra, secreta ou pública.
God shall bring all things into doom, that be done; for each thing covered, either privy, whether it be good, or evil.
For as the Father raiseth dead men, and quickeneth, so the Son quickeneth whom he will.
For neither the Father judgeth any man, but hath given every doom to the Son,
that all men honour the Son, as they honour the Father. He that honoureth not the Son, honoureth not the Father that sent him.
Truly, truly, I say to you, that he that heareth my word, and believeth in him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and he cometh not into doom, but passeth from death into life.
Truly, truly, I say to you, for the hour cometh, and now it is, when dead men shall hear the voice of the Son of God, and they that hear, shall live.
For as the Father hath life in him-self, so he gave to the Son, to have life in himself;
and he gave to him power to make doom, for he is man’s Son.
Do not ye wonder in this, for the hour cometh, in which all men that be in burials, shall hear the voice of God’s Son.
And they that have done good things, shall go into again-rising of life; but they that have done evil things, into again-rising of doom.
I may nothing do of myself, but as I hear, I deem, [or I may not of myself do anything, but as I hear, I judge], and my doom is just, for I seek not my will, but the will of the Father that sent me.
If I bear witnessing of myself, my witnessing is not true;
But I say to you truth, it speedeth to you, that I go; for if I go not forth [or go away], the Comforter shall not come to you; but if I go forth [or go away], I shall send him to you.
And when he cometh, he shall reprove the world of sin, and of rightwiseness, and of doom,
Of sin, for they have not believed in me;
Jesus answered, and said, This voice came not for me, but for you.
Now is the doom of the world, now the prince of this world shall be cast out.
And if I shall be enhanced from the earth, I shall draw all things to myself.
And he said, Lord, I believe. And he fell down, and worshipped him.
Therefore Jesus said to him, I came into this world, in doom, that they that see not, see, and they that see, be made blind.
Prestando contas
Cada um prestará contas de si mesmo a Deus. O juízo começa pela casa de Deus e depois alcança os que não obedecem ao evangelho.
But take ye a sick man in belief, not in deemings, [or in deceptions, or disputations], of thoughts.
For another man believeth, that he may eat all things; but he that is sick, [or unsteadfast], eat worts.
He that eateth, despise not him that eateth not; and he that eateth not, deem not him that eateth. For God hath taken him to him [or God hath taken him].
Who art thou, that deemest another’s servant? To his lord he standeth, or falleth from him, [or falleth down]. But he shall stand; for the Lord is mighty to make him perfect, [or to ordain him, or make steadfast].
Therefore each of us shall yield reason to God for himself.
Therefore no more deem we each other; but more deem ye this thing, that ye put not hurting, or cause of stumbling, to a brother.
I know and trust in the Lord Jesus, that nothing is unclean by him, no but to him that deemeth anything to be unclean, to him it is unclean.
For time is, that doom begin at God’s house; and if it begin first at us, what end shall be of them, that believe not to the gospel?
Therefore do not ye deem before the time, till that the Lord come, which shall lighten the hid things of darknesses, and shall show the counsels of hearts; and then praising shall be to each man of God.
for in what doom ye deem, ye shall be deemed, and in what measure ye mete, it shall be meted again to you.
But what seest thou a little mote in the eye of thy brother, and seest not a beam in thine own eye?
Or how sayest thou to thy brother, Brother, suffer [that] I shall do out a mote from thine eye, and lo! a beam is in thine own eye?
Justiça e redenção
O juízo de Deus é também redenção. Ele livrou Israel do Egito com juízos e salva os arrependidos pela cruz de Cristo.
Therefore say thou to the sons of Israel, I am the Lord, that shall lead you out of the prison of the Egyptians; and I shall deliver you from servage; and I shall again-buy you in an arm straight out, and in great dooms;
And I shall pass through the land of Egypt in that night, and I shall smite all the first engendered or the first begotten things in the land of Egypt, from man till to beast; and I the Lord shall make dooms in all the gods of Egypt.
I have sinned to thee alone, and I have done evil before thee; that thou be justified in thy words, and overcome when thou art deemed.
Zion heard, and was glad; and the daughters of Judah made full out joy, for thy dooms, Lord.
they casted down it with an ax, and a broad falling ax.
They burnt with fire thy saintuary; they defouled the tabernacle of thy name in earth.
After these things I heard as a great voice of many trumps in heaven, saying, Alleluia; praising, and glory, and virtue is to our God;
for true and just be the dooms of him, which deemed the great whore, that defouled [or corrupted] the earth in her lechery, and avenged the blood of his servants, of the hands of her.
And again they said, Alleluia. And the smoke of it goeth up, into the worlds of worlds.
