Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth My word, and believeth on Him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life. (John 5:24)
For the Father judgeth no man, but hath committed all judgment unto the Son John (5:22)
Because He hath appointed a day, in the which He will judge the world in righteousness by that man whom He hath ordained; whereof He hath given assurance unto all men, in that He hath raised Him from the dead.
(Acts 17:31)
Judgment is a prominent theme in the word of God. The Scriptures abound with passages that declare God as the moral ruler of men and thus, the Judge. And, Scripture often sets forth the fact that God's judgment will be inperfect righteousness. It will not be tainted by the prejudices of men and there will be no courtroom antics such as are often seen in modern day trials.
The Bible represents God as the judge of nations and individuals. It declares Him to be the judge of men and angels. Scripture also reveals that He will judge the world by Jesus Christ. Christ will be the person who sits as Judge and executes judgment.
One of the rewards of His humiliation is that as the Son of man He shall sit in judgment upon a wicked, unbelieving world.
1. They brought Him before the Sanhedrin for judgment.
2. They brought Him before Pilate for judgment.
3. They brought Him before Herod for judgment.
4. He has been judged again and again in the court of public opinion.
BUT.......... one day, all who have been His judges and deemed Him unworthy of their trust shall come before HIM in judgment. If we are to know Christ as we ought, we must know Him as JUDGE!! There, you cannot bypass the Son, and go straight to the throne!
Can He judge the flesh while loving us? Yes, He can!
We take the OT images of wrath and carry them into the age of Calvary, where we learn that His judgment is upon the carnal nature - that's the purpose of the cross in our lives. For you see, God hates your flesh and mine just as much as the vilest sinner.

Your sister in Christ, Betsey
When Jesus came the first time, He came as the lamb. When He comes at the Second Advent, He will come as a lion, executing judgment on those who do not know Him. He will order these into the eternal fire as per Matthew 25:41,46.
One thousand years later, at the Great White Throne judgment, He will send to the lake of fire, all who have been resurrected out of Hades to stand before Him in judgment. Revelation 20:11-15
God's holiness is perfect. His judgments are fair. All will be in their place. Those who know God will be with God, and those who do not know God, who rejected Christ will be eternally separated from God in hell, and reaping the results of what they have sowed.

Yes His second coming will be much different from the first one!
A promise from the Old Testament for Jesus to be our Judge in Isaiah 9:6-7..... ¨For unto us a child is born unto us a child is given and the government shall be upon his shoulder and his name shall be called Wounderful, Counseller, The Mighty God, The Everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace........ Of the increase of his government and peace there shall be no end, upon the throne of David and upon his kingdom, to order it. and to establish it with JUDGEMENT and with Justice from henceforth ever and ever...The zeal of the Lord of Host will proclaim this¨.........
