What does the Bible say about the judgment of the wicked?

John the Baptist’s preaching included stern warnings about the impending judgment awaiting the unrepentant. He spoke of an 'unquenchable fire' (Matthew 3:12), highlighting the seriousness of sin and the consequences that follow. Scripture underscores this teaching throughout, reminding us that the wrath of God is revealed against all ungodliness (Romans 1:18). This element of John's message serves as a crucial reminder to consider the eternal implications of sin, affirming the historic Reformed view that while God is loving, He is also just and will not leave sin unpunished.
