I will be Judged upon my Imitation of Christ. A rather poor one, I must admit, but I am honest in it. -mark

You've already been judged, and found guilty, as have we all. Only faith in Christ brings salvation. Your trust in your own works are in vain. I'll continue to pray for your salvation...

Romans 3: 21 But now a righteousness from God, apart from law, has been made known, to which the Law and the Prophets testify. 22 This righteousness from God comes through faith in Jesus Christ to all who believe. There is no difference, 23 for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, 24 and are justified freely by his grace through the redemption that came by Christ Jesus. 25 God presented him as a sacrifice of atonement, through faith in his blood. He did this to demonstrate his justice, because in his forbearance he had left the sins committed beforehand unpunished— 26 he did it to demonstrate his justice at the present time, so as to be just and the one who justifies those who have faith in Jesus.

***You’ve already been judged, and found guilty***

Scripture, please. My Bible says that I will be Judged by Him after my death. Matthew 12:
36
25 I tell you, on the day of judgment people will render an account for every careless word they speak.
37
By your words you will be acquitted, and by your words you will be condemned.”

On the day of Judgement, you WILL BE acquitted or condemned.

2 Corinthians 5:
10
For we must all appear 7 before the judgment seat of Christ, so that each one may receive recompense, according to what he did in the body, whether good or evil.

We all must appear (future tense).

Hebrews 9:
27
Just as it is appointed that human beings die once, and after this the judgment,

Note the order: death first, then Judgement.

*** Only faith in Christ brings salvation. Your trust in your own works are in vain.***

Without faith in Christ, no salvation is possible. Yet the Judgement remains. What do you think that you will be Judged on? Jesus tells us and so does Paul.

***I’ll continue to pray for your salvation... ***

I thank you for that. And appreciate it.
