It is appointed once to die.
Our judgment will come after.
Many are mocking now.
God will cut short their laughter.
Man has been fully given
God’s unfailing word.
This is the word that judges
All that is seen and heard.
God has also given a counselor
That man may know and obey.
Those who dispute his words
In eternity shall pay.
Now you are to judge yourself
As to who you are serving.
No one can serve two masters.
Who are you observing?
Then Jesus cried out, “Whoever believes in me does not believe in me only, but in the one who sent me. The one who looks at me is seeing the one who sent me. I have come into the world as a light, so that no one who believes in me should stay in darkness. If anyone hears my words but does not keep them, I do not judge that person. For I did not come to judge the world, but to save the world. There is a judge for the one who rejects me and does not accept my words; the very words I have spoken will condemn them at the last day. For I did not speak on my own, but the Father who sent me commanded me to say all that I have spoken. I know that his command leads to eternal life. So whatever I say is just what the Father has told me to say."
John 12:44-50 NIV
