BELIEF IN THE DAY OF JUDGEMENT

Man is being watched by God, and his actions are being recorded by God’s angels. Though he is free in this world, in the next, he will be held accountable for every thought, speech and action that he made in this world. Therefore, linked to the belief in the Day of Judgement is the belief that man is accountable to God. He is being watched by God and his actions are being recorded by God’s angels. Though he is free in this world, in the next, he will be held accountable for every thought, speech and action that he made in this world. The Relevance of the Day of Judgement The present world is full of strange paradoxes. Here, birds chant hymns of divine praise, while man recites eulogies to himself. Stars and planets continue their voyages without clashing with one another, while man willfully sets himself on a collision course with others. In this world there is no tree which undermines another, but men spend their lives plotting one another’s destruction. Lofty, upright trees show their meekness by casting their shadows on the ground, but if man ascends to any heights he immediately becomes arrogant. This attitude of man’s is totally contrary to God’s Will for His entire creation. Doomsday shall erase these paradoxes, the might of all save God shall be eradicated. When this period of trial has run its course, God will destroy the present world and create another one. There, the righteous and wicked will be separated from one another. The former will reside in Paradise and the latter in hellfire. Today the world of God appears to be silent. But on the Day of Judgement, everything will be given the power of speech. Present day inventions and discoveries have proved that even lifeless objects have the power of “speech.” Studio performances can be fully replayed by recording sets. Similarly, the present world is like a huge divine studio. Whatever man does or says is being preserved at every moment. And when the time comes, the story of everyone will be repeated in such a way that neither great nor small sayings and doings will escape God’s attention. We must foresee the coming of that day before its arrival. Those who fail to see it coming before it is upon them will have to pay dearly for their shortsightedness. They will have to endure the punishment of hellfire.
