10 Mistakes People Make with Judgment Day (plus 1 bonus):

3. Expect that good deeds will outweigh bad for salvation. (Ephesians 2:8-9)
4. Think they’ll be able to “negotiate” with the Judge. (Matthew 22:12)
5. Are not prepared for it. (Luke 17:26-37)
6. Miss that even the very words a person speaks will be scrutinized. (Matthew 12:36)
7. Count on a second chance after this life is through (reincarnation, purgatory).
8. Don’t realize that Jesus Christ Himself is the Judge. (2 Timothy 4:1; Romans 2:16; Matthew 25:31-33)
9. Overlook that the merciful will receive mercy; the merciless will not. (James 2:13; Matthew 18:21-35)
10. Think a God of love would never send anyone to hell (He doesn’t; people choose to go there via their lifestyle). (Romans 2:5-11)

BONUS Live in a state of fear when God has provided an escape from Judgment and a peaceful, assurance (“It is well with my soul”). (John 3:16; 1 John 4:17)
