How Will You Be Judged?
Many today often avoid the idea of judgment, but Scripture makes it clear: God is holy, and He will judge sin. In 2 Peter 2:4–9, Dr. Rocky Ramsey teaches the reality of God’s judgment, showing how past judgments serve as warnings for us today:
God judged the rebellion of angels.
God judged the wickedness of Noah’s generation.
God judged the immorality of Sodom and Gomorrah.
Each of these moments serves as evidence that God takes sin seriously. Judgment isn’t arbitrary—it’s a reflection of His holiness and justice. Dr. Rocky Ramsey also explains the criteria by which we will be judged: our deeds, our neglected duties, our words, our silences, and the light we rejected. The reality of judgment should not only sober us, but also stir us to repentance, obedience, and faith in Jesus Christ.
“For if God did not spare angels when they sinned, but cast them into hell and committed them to pits of darkness, reserved for judgment; and did not spare the ancient world, but preserved Noah, a preacher of righteousness, with seven others, when He brought a flood upon the world of the ungodly; and if He condemned the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah to destruction by reducing them to ashes, having made them an example to those who would live ungodly lives thereafter; and if He rescued righteous Lot, oppressed by the sensual conduct of unprincipled men (for by what he saw and heard that righteous man, while living among them, felt his righteous soul tormented day after day by their lawless deeds), then the Lord knows how to rescue the godly from temptation, and to keep the unrighteous under punishment for the day of judgment...”
