Are you a good person? If there really is a judgment day, will God agree with your assessment? It’s probably a question you’ve asked yourself before. In fact, humanity has tackled the issue of good and evil for thousands of years. Many of our life choices are based on that same question of whether something is good or bad. And from these choices, the very direction of our lives is ultimately affected. What kinds of life choices did you make yesterday? Are you making similar choices right now? And what types of options do you expect to be faced with in the future? In the same way that we judge whether or not something is good or bad, the Bible speaks of a judgment day , where Jesus who will cast ultimate judgment between good and evil when He returns. But how do we end up on the right side? Watch Episode 7 of Unlocking Bible Prophecies: Digging Deeper, where Pastor Chris Holland seeks biblical answers to this very critical question. MEET THE HOST:

Only One Light to Illuminate the Way
But the path of the just is as the shining light, that shineth more and more unto the perfect day. Proverbs 4:18.
Christ’s love in the heart, revealing through the life its wondrous power—this is the greatest miracle that can be performed before a fallen, quarreling world. Let us try to work this miracle, not in our own power, but in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, whose we are and whom we serve. Let us put on Christ, and the miracle-working power of His grace will be so plainly revealed in the transformation of character that the world will be convinced that God has sent His Son into the world to make men as angels in character and life.
Those who truly believe in Christ sit together with Him in heavenly places. Let us accept the badge of Christianity. This is not an outward sign, not the wearing of a cross or a crown, but it is something that reveals the union of man with God. Let us “put off the old man with his deeds; and … put on the new man, which is renewed in knowledge after the image of him that created him” (Colossians 3:9, 10). The beauty of holiness is revealed as Christians draw near together, blending in Christlike love.
“Having therefore, brethren, boldness to enter into the holiest by the blood of Jesus, by a new and living way, which he hath consecrated for us, through the veil, that is to say, his flesh; and having an high priest over the house of God; let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience, and our bodies washed with pure water. Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering; (for he is faithful that promised;) and let us consider one another to provoke unto love and to good works: not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is, but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching” (Hebrews 10:19-25).
There is only one true religion, only one way to heaven; only one light to illuminate the way as the pilgrims press on. As we follow on to know the Lord, we shall acknowledge at every step that Christ is the Light of the world, that He is the Way, the Truth, and the Life; and we shall find that the path that He bids us follow is “as the shining light, that shineth more and more unto the perfect day” (Proverbs 4:18)….
The Lord is good and greatly to be praised…. How blest, how doubly blest, is the home in which father, mother, and children are consecrated to the service of Christ.—Letter 126, August 7, 1902, to an evangelist in New York City.
