Meditation Monday #1: Judgement Day devotion from GospelGal
"The love of the Father, expressed in the sending of the Son to be the Saviour of the world (1 John 4:14), is the basis for the confidence of believers. This is because the atoning death of Christ has provided full forgiveness and restoration into fellowship with the Triune God (1 John 1:3).
Believers have been made like Jesus in all his sinless purity, “as he is, so also are we in this world” (v.17). Calvin explains, 'John says that the faithful do not fear when mention is made to them of the last judgment but … they go to God’s tribunal confidently and cheerfully, because they feel assured of his paternal love'” (p. 245).
