In this second episode about the Judgment, Arnie and Fred begin by discussing the fact that the Bible is the standard the Lord will use to judge all people. We talk about some of the ways various people teach that others will be judged and the fact that many seem to be in no hurry to prepare for their judgment. Additionally we note that the time of the Lord's return to judge His people is not known and consequently could be anytime, sooner or later.  We discuss the fact that the Lord will judge each person individually.  Each soul will give account for his own actions and conduct whether good or bad, for the Bible states that there is a record kept of what each one has done. The only way to be forgiven of the sins we commit and thus avoid punishment for them is to obey the gospel of Christ.
