The Judgment Day
The apostles are sitting and listening while Jesus is teaching
them. He is
teaching them about the Judgment-Day. The Judgment-Day will
be the
last day in this world. There will never be another day after
that. Jesus
says that he will come down from heaven on that day, and
that all the
good angels will come with him. Then he will sit on a high
seat, called
a throne, where everybody can see him.
You and I will see him then,
and every one will see him. The people who
have been drowned in the
sea, and those that have been buried in the
ground, will all of them be
there. Jesus will call to them, and they
will hear him, and they will rise
up and stand before him, for him to
judge them; that is, for him to say
whether they shall be rewarded or
punished.
The good people who have
loved him and minded him will stand on one
side, and the bad people
who have not minded him will stand on the
other side. Then Jesus will
take all those who have loved him up to
heaven, and there they will stay
with him forever.
Matthew 24
