“Do you not know that we shall judge angels?” 1Corinthians 6:3
Have you ever thought about why God has given us (Christians) the right to judge angels?
God is personally going to judge the unsaved while He sits on the ‘Great White Throne’ (Rev. 20:11). We do not have the right or authority to judge the unbeliever. But we do/will have the right and authority to judge the fallen and rebellious angels. Why?
There can only be one reason. The rebellious angels were in the presence of God Himself. They had personal and physical experience with The Almighty, The Ancient of Days. But they rejected Him and followed Lucifer. They rejected their relationship with God, despite having seen Him and experienced Him in person.
On the other hand, we who were born into darkness have believed in the Father and His Son by faith alone, not by sight. “Blessed are they who did not see, and yet believed.” John 20:29 That is what gives us the right. But we don’t pat ourselves on the back. It was Christ who called us and drew us to Him. And yet we can exult knowing that we have responded to God’s calling and chosen the free gift that was offered – absolute and total forgiveness and acceptance into God’s family through Jesus.
God drew you, but it was your choice! It was your free will decision. Had it not been a free will choice then we could not have the right to judge the angels and there would be no faith to reckon as righteous – Romans 4:3.
God thinks that’s a big deal. He is blessed by our faith. This alone is what justifies us – believers – as RIGHTEOUS! Romans 5:1
