Judgement Flashcards
God
God is the ultimate judge of everything on earth. He sees and knows everything, not just what people say and do but even their inner feelings and thoughts within their hearts. He assesses everyone and decides what happens to them after they die.
Parable of the Sheep and Goars
Everyone is judged for what they did in their life and it is about how those who help God look after humans are the sheep and they go to heaven and those that don’t are the goats and they go to hell.
Quote: ‘Whatever you did for one of the least of brothers of mine, you did for me.’
The impacts about believing in judgement
1.Fear - The concept that God is watching their every move scares Christians because they want to make sure that they show him that they are worth salvation.
2.Respect - Christians believe that God wants then to respect and worship him.
3. Moral and Ethical principles - Believe certain moral and ethical principles because they are from the Church and Bible, as God is watching them Christians believe that they should follow these principles as best as possible.
Dollar - God is watching. About how they spend their money, tithing (giving some of their income to Church), money to charity or poor as well.
4.Actions towards others - Try to teach others as God would want because he watches and sees all e.g loving neighbour, helping others and treating people kindly.
5. Family decisions - Based on what they believe God would want them to do. Based on biblical teachings for example getting married and having kids.
6. Developing Faith - God wants Christians to worship and respect him e.g prayer and worship and reading the Bible
