In this sermon, C. H. Spurgeon addresses the doctrine of divine judgment as portrayed in Ecclesiastes 12:14 and Romans 14:12, emphasizing the certainty and totality of God's judgment upon humanity. He outlines that every individual, regardless of status, will have to give a personal account to God, illustrating this with vivid imagery of varied groups before the judgment throne — from kings to commoners. He underscores that no one will escape this universal judgment, noting that everyone, both the righteous and the wicked, shall be judged according to their deeds, whether good or evil. The significance of this doctrine lies in its call for personal accountability and a life lived in awareness of one's actions before a holy God.
“Every being of the race of Adam shall answer for himself.”
