The Judgement & Glory of Christ

At the end of Matthew 25 Jesus teaches about the coming judgment at His return in glory. This is what we often refer to as the sheep and goats judgment, when the Son of Man will divide believers and unbelievers, the righteous and the wicked, unto everlasting happiness or eternal condemnation, based on their relationship to God. Did they serve the Lord from a heart of faith or did they reject the Lord from a heart of unbelief? May these words, spoken during the week of the crucifixion, echo in our minds until we have assurance of our standing before the glory of the King.
