BIBLE PASSAGE: Luke 16:19 – 31
19 # There was a certain rich man, which was clothed in purple and fine linen, and fared sumptuously every day:
20 And there was a certain beggar named Lazarus, which was laid at his gate, full of sores,
21 And desiring to be fed with the crumbs which fell from the rich man’s table: moreover the dogs came and licked his sores.
22 And it came to pass, that the beggar died, and was carried by the angels into Abraham’s bosom: the rich man also died, and was buried;
23 And in hell he lift up his eyes, being in torments, and seeth Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom.
24 And he cried and said, Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and cool my tongue; for I am tormented in this flame.
25 But Abraham said, Son, remember that thou in thy lifetime receivedst thy good things, and likewise Lazarus evil things: but now he is comforted, and thou art tormented.
26 And beside all this, between us and you there is a great gulf fixed: so that they which would pass from hence to you cannot; neither can they pass to us, that [would come] from thence.
27 Then he said, I pray thee therefore, father, that thou wouldest send him to my father’s house:
28 For I have five brethren; that he may testify unto them, lest they also come into this place of torment.
29 Abraham saith unto him, They have Moses and the prophets; let them hear them.
30 And he said, Nay, father Abraham: but if one went unto them from the dead, they will repent.
31 And he said unto him, If they hear not Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded, though one rose from the dead. RCCG HOUSE FELLOWSHIP MEMBERS’ MANUAL LESSON 28
LESSON INTRODUCTION: There are instances in the BIBLE where God exercised judgements. In Genesis 18 and 19, on the same visit, he dropped a generational blessing to the righteous and a fire of destruction in the house of the wicked. In Genesis 18, in response to Abraham’s prayer to know if God will mete out the same judgment to the wicked and the righteous, He said that He will not treat the righteous person the same way He treats the wicked. That should remove the fear of any righteous person who is scared of going through the same judgment with the wicked. This tells us about three judgments:
THE JUDGMENT AT DEATH – Separation of the wheat from the tares. Hebrew 9:27, Matt. 13:24-30. Immediately after death, there is a judgment to decide who goes to heaven and who goes to hell. In our Bible text, Lazarus died and was taken to heaven by angels but when the rich man died, he was buried and kept going down until he opened his eyes in hell. The determination is: Have you accepted Jesus Christ and determined to live for Him? John 3:17-21.RCCG House Fellowship Leader’s Manual 3 November 2019
1. THE JUDGMENT OF THE RIGHTEOUS
The judgement seat of Christ. 2 Corinthians 5:10; Revelation 22:11-12; 1 Corinthians 3:13-15. We are not saved by works but we are saved for works. These works will be judged as well as the motives.
2. THE JUDGMENT OF THE WICKED – ‘The Great White Throne Judgement’. Revelation 20:11-15. Wicked according to this verse is anyone who has not accepted Christ as his or her personal Lord and Savior. John 3:36 says that during this judgment there will be a high display of God’s wrath with no hope for mercy.
CONCLUSION: Life is measured and metered. It is therefore limited by time and other variables such as sickness, death etc. Human beings are not wired to live for eternity in this flesh. Death the ultimate full stop to life does not necessarily follow any sequence. Adult die, infants die, elders die, women die, men die all in no particular order. The Bible does not support the doctrine of incarnation. It is written in Hebrew 9:27 “And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment:” The question now is if death comes today, are you prepared to face God’s judgment?
