The saints will judge the world.  

1 Corinthians 6:2
2 Or do you not know that the saints will judge the world? If the world is judged by you, are you not competent to constitute the smallest law courts?

            We will have an awesome responsibility one day. If God can entrust such a thing to us then, shouldn’t we be responsible enough to do things here and now? We, as Christians, should be more active in politics, the courts, the school boards, and many other things. We are more than able to do so, and we should take our places in society. That is so we can have a life closer to what we as Christians desire than we have now.

If you could hear God speak, I believe this is what He would say:
            "You are My special ones and shall reign victoriously with Me. Why do you say that you are nothing and can do nothing? Do you think that I would want to have a people who were of no value and could do nothing for My Kingdom? I want a people who know Me and know My Word; for it is in My Word that judgment shall come. You cannot judge rightly without knowledge of My Word. It is in My Word that judgment shall come upon all flesh. If you do not know My Word, you cannot know what is right and what is wrong … both for you and for those around you. You shall judge the world, but now My Word shall judge you. It is not something to be feared, for I would never harm you. It is for your good to know My Word and to allow it to judge you. Once you have passed the judgment of My Word, then you can be free to judge the world.”

            90. When He returns, we the saints, will judge the world.



            I just finished watching “Fiddler on the Roof” again. At the end, Mottle says, “We’ve been waiting for the Messiah a long time. Wouldn’t this be a good time for Him to come?” We as Christians have been waiting almost two thousand years for Him to come again. Wouldn’t this be a good time for Him to return?
