~”Won’t Joseph Smith judge you as well as Christ?”~

Christ is the final, ultimate judge. As is taught in the Bible, His prophets and apostles will participate in those judgments, with His authority and in His name. From the Encyclopedia of Mormonism:

“A purpose of the final judgment is to judge every person, to provide a separation of the faithful from the wicked, and to make available the promised blessings of eternal reward to God’s faithful children. Jesus Christ is the judge.”

Here is a very complete answer to your question:

Thanks for the question; this is the first that I’ve been asked it, and I learned new things in the process of finding the answer.
