Today's message is taken from my monthly devotional
"Heaven Bread," that is published on Amazon (CreatSpace, Kindle, and
Seller Central) and wherever books are sold.
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.
If the question was raised, why is Christ the
righteous Judge? This is because who Christ is; the only begotten of God the
Father who died on the cross paying man's sin-debt. Christ is the righteous
judge being that He was slain from the foundation of the world to be man's
propitiator. Christ is the righteous judge it is in Him deity and humanity met.
Christ is the righteous judge in that He was the first fruit of the dead who
was raised with all power in His hands in heaven and earth.
Being human and divine, Christ met all of the Father's requirements to
redeem man back to Himself. Being human and divine, Christ could relate to His
Father, humanity and the world. Christ was fully God and man. This is because
He has God the Holy Spirit as His Father and was born of the Virgin Mary who
was fully human.
It worth noting that Christ was in the beginning with God and all things were
created by Him (John 1:1-4). It is in Christ the Word was made flesh and dwelt
among humanity (John 1:14).
These questions come to mind, who would you prefer as the righteous
judge, Christ or man? Would you prefer a judge who is righteous and changes not
or someone that is sinful by nature? Christ is the second person in the
Godhead, who is God and knows all, sees all and can do all.
Christ is the righteous judge who is coming back to judge the world
with His truth and His eternal justice.
