    As you know my friend, I am not of the Christian faith. I believe that when I cross over I will view a tapestry of my life and see all that I was, not only the pretty things, the ugly as well...all the times I judged another harshly, all the times I snapped at someone because I was in a bad mood. Because of that belief...I sincerely hope I am judged with love.

    From Adam & Eve, we were given the luxury of knowing. Therefore the errors and repentances. From there we've learned in growing up; what's right and wrong. We just know! So we judge ourselves all along our life and quite strongly, I'd say. Although according to the bible, at our death, we are judged once. Then in the of the world. It is written in the bible all over and after in the Revelations, it is said that there will be The Great Judgment Day. Whomever claims today that he's saved is totally unsaved, and live in the desert not knowing. No one has some special grace/power of this sort. We're all humans, therefore at risk to fail again and again. Many people say this here too often, they should read the bible entirely and carefully. So long as we live, we are impure at all times, just about... After we've sincerely repented, we forgive and are forgiven, we are pure till next time we fail again. I'm Catholic, and the Holy bible says exactly that. Now, not everybody thinks this way or even know this. It's ok. I believe that we'll be judged by our actions and deeds. God knows our deepest secrets in our hearts, and will bring them about in the face of the entire world, we will be ashamed of some we've forgotten along the way. To be judged on how we have loved according to God? I don't know quite this, for I don't know God that deeply. Although, we are supposed to live the way of Jesus lived: when he said: I am the Way, the Truth, and Life. So I think it's more the way we'll be judged. How did we live. Thanks.

    All our life is a judgment after age 15 and fully at 21 as supposedly should be mature by then and know the truth of life

    If we fail to follow the instructions of God through His messengers,specially not knowing if He has returned with more teachings,then we have failed and have not passed the judgment of God.

    then when we leave this world ,will realize what we have missed and have made a wrong judgment when we were in this physical world.

    Currently whole world is on judgment as this universal teacher has come and is asking humanity to come to His teachings as all have been waiting for a great age to come,now the Great age has come but again humanity univesally this time,have failed to find this teacher to be united in one common understanding of life and reach maturity for universal peace.

    So judgment is in this world also in the next when we leave this world, have to respond to call of God here or answer for our doings in the next.

    Thank you,

    "Do you believe that at the end of your life you will face judgment?" - Yes, either at the Pearly Gates by St Peter, or in front of GOD directly. If my name is not in the book of life, then it's too horrible to think about. It's all up to me and the choices I make, in how I live and treat others.

    "How will you be judged?" - More fairly than by any human, that's for sure, and with pure love.

    Peace, I hope all is well.

    Yes, Love - Christ Jesus - judges all as authority was given to Him by the Father.

    The redeemed face their beloved Lord at the Judgement Seat of Christ

    The unredeemed face the Lord they rejected at the Great White Throne Judgement.

    Dear Debra:

    as a muslim catholic buddy of buddha jew boy... Judgement is always up to the LORD our God.

    This is part of what the Holy Qur'an has to say about Judgement.

    Bismillahir Rahmanir Raheem

    082.017

    YUSUFALI: And what will explain to thee what the Day of Judgment is?

    PICKTHAL: Ah, what will convey unto thee what the Day of Judgment is!

    SHAKIR: And what will make you realize what the day of judgement is?

    082.018

    YUSUFALI: Again, what will explain to thee what the Day of Judgment is?

    PICKTHAL: Again, what will convey unto thee what the Day of Judgment is!

    SHAKIR: Again, what will make you realize what the day of judgment Is?

    082.019

    YUSUFALI: (It will be) the Day when no soul shall have power (to do) aught for another: For the command, that Day, will be (wholly) with Allah.

    PICKTHAL: A day on which no soul hath power at all for any (other) soul. The (absolute) command on that day is Allah's.

    SHAKIR: The day on which no soul shall control anything for (another) soul; and the command on that day shall be entirely Allah's.

    SubhanAllahi wa biHamdihi!

    I do not question that we will be judged in love and compassion and i donkey don't doubt St. John of the Cross

    Almost all surah's begin...

    In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful

    we all face judgement.

    that is the reality of the situation.

    we all face death. Gloria in Excelsis Deo!

    Peace and warm wishes be upon you... and may Jesus Chris† be blessed forever! Kyrie Eleison.

    Aw, I would much rather be judged by Love than anything else! :)

    Many Protestants make God out as being a bad guy, and someone to be feared, but I think that anyone that would make this world (the way he originally made it) couldn't be all that bad, I think people should worship him out of Love, not fear.

    Apply this Logic to you:

    If you created an Entire world full of living creatures, would you want them to worship you out of fear (as in they are afraid that if they don't worship you, you will throw them into the fire place!) or do you want them to worship you out of love? LOL

    It is obvious to me.

    Source(s): This is the reason I didn't like going to church, they told me things that I didn't feel were true, in my heart. I always felt like God was telling me soemthing different, I figured that I would follow my heart rather than listen to the Mad Ramblings of someone that was "Speaking in Tongues" LOL
  • Yes we either go to heaven or hell or purgatory in some cases but when the time comes ALL will come before judgment everybody from Heaven hell and Those left on Earth as stated in Revelations!

    No I will not be judged but I will be able to flout around and help other people. Why do we have to be judged? If god is all knowing and seeing doesn't he know what we are going to do before we are born?

    i know we judge ourselves. i saw the place. i am nt=ot crazy or religious. i had total despair recently and then i saw it. i had to forgive myself but the most pain is thinking that your loved ones will judge themselves and feel that intense soulful sorrow. and all time is at the same time. you can see your entire life and how you affected people and animals and other creatures (souls). and we all belong to that white..light... source... hard to explain. but it is completely pure. and i know i am not worthy to be there. i will come back and learn many more lessons. you can't lie to yourself when u die.
