Definition for Judgment A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z Judgment: Biblical judgment is generally the spiritual parallel to being legally judged in a court of law against a preset standard or rule. In the Old Testament, judgment often refers to God's righteous punishment of those who continually turn their backs on him - or who do harm to his people. In many cases, the judgment was to the entire nation of Israel, although sometimes it was to individuals, groups, or other nations. In other cases, judgment (the act of judging) refers to one person judging another. The New Testament has much to say about this sort of judgment, generally critical in nature (see Matthew 7:1-2, Luke 6:37, 1 Corinthians 4:3, 1 Corinthians 5:12-13, 1 Corinthians 6:2-5, and James 4:11-12. Ultimately, in the end times, the entire earth will be judged (see 2 Peter 3:7 and Revelation 6:10). (See our Internet resources page for sites with more information on this topic.) |
