What does the Bible say about judgment after death?
Answered in 2 sources
The Bible teaches that every person will face judgment after death, where all deeds, good and evil, will be examined by God.
Ecclesiastes 12:14 states, 'For God shall bring every work into judgment with every secret thing, whether it be good or whether it be evil.' This passage clarifies that after death, individuals will stand before God to give an account of their lives. This divine judgment emphasizes God's holiness and righteousness, as He is the ultimate judge who knows not only our actions but also our thoughts and intentions. Moreover, Hebrews 9:27 affirms, 'It is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment,' signifying the certainty of death and the ensuing accountability.
