Judgment Day is critical for Christians as it emphasizes accountability and the hope of eternal rewards for faith and salvation.
Judgment Day, as outlined in the sermon, is a future certainty where all will stand before Christ as the righteous Judge. This recognition instills a sense of urgency for believers to live out their faith authentically, prepare their families for salvation, and actively share the Gospel. It serves as a reminder of the eternal consequences of rejecting Christ, which underscores the significance of grace and mercy in the salvation narrative. The hope of being welcomed into eternal fellowship with God is a driving force for Christians to evangelize and live righteously in anticipation of that day.
