Judgment: Great News or Dreaded Dilemma?

by Gordon Kainer

No biblical theme raises more fear or discouragement among Adventists than God’s judgments, especially the pre-advent judgment. However, there is great news! The author reveals how our fear disappears when we accept Jesus, the righteous One, as our Substitute in the judgment. Learn how God’s judgment illustrates His purpose of universal restoration and vindication in the context of His covenant, grace, and justification. Through a loving God's offer of justification by faith we can stand confidently in the judgment with Christ our Advocate. Discover joy in salvation by faith in Christ alone, that the pre-advent judgment is Christ-centered, not man-centered; it is not what you have done but what He has done for you! Judgment does not question your decision to accept Christ's sacrifice; it validates the decision you’ve already made! Finally, readers will find peaceful assurance that eternity won’t begin until every human question has been answered to our satisfaction in the judgment.
