Why bother having Christ judge you, anyway.

We have been judged. We now stand acquitted before God by the obedience and justification of Jesus Christ upon the cross.

How you miss this after reading Scripture is one of life's greatest puzzles.

" but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God." -- 1 Corinthians 6:11

"And now I stand and am judged for the hope of the promise made of God, unto our fathers" -- Acts 26:6

"And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I pray God your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Faithful is he that calleth you, who also will do it." -- 1 Thessalonians 5:23-24

At our death, God will immediately embrace us because our salvation has been accomplished by Christ alone. And all our works will be judged according to Christ's work within us because "faithful is he that calleth you, who also will do it."

DE: We have been judged. We now stand acquitted before God by the obedience and justification of Jesus Christ upon the cross. ... How you miss this after reading Scripture is one of life's greatest puzzles.

You say by this and back it up with some scripture ...

Based on that, what is your interpretation of Heb 10:26-29,35,36? - "For if we sin wilfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins, But a certain fearful looking for of judgment and fiery indignation, which shall devour the adversaries. He that despised Moses' law died without mercy under two or three witnesses: Of how much sorer punishment, suppose ye, shall he be thought worthy, who hath trodden under foot the Son of God, and hath counted the blood of the covenant, wherewith he was sanctified, an unholy thing, and hath done despite unto the Spirit of grace? ... Therefore, do not throw away your confidence; it will have great recompense. You need endurance to do the will of God and receive what he has promised."
