The Final Judgment refers to the righteous judgement of God, that is still to come at the end of human history as we know it ( Duet. 30:19; Luke 13:24; Phil. 2:10-11). This is not to judge our salvation as believers, it has already be done. It will be to judge our works and motivations! And then we will receive our place in eternity, our reward. For the non-Christian this is God's justice, His anger and fury to sin (John 3:36; Rom. 2:5; 5:9; Eph. 5:6; Col. 3:6; Rev. 6:17; 19:15) , will prevail, that all people in all times will be judged, and all will give an account to God for there actions in life on earth (Psalm 62:12; Matt. 16:27; Rom. 2:6; II Cor. 5:10; Rev. 22:12). As believers, Christ will save us from the anger of God (Matt. 12:33-37; I Thess. 1:10), and allow us to reveal our works, the fruits and gratitude for our salvation. Beware you the "reprobate", the carnal Christian, your hypocrisy will be revealed (Matt. 7:21-23; 18:23-35; 25:34-46; I Cor. 4:5; James 2:14-26).
Christ is both judge, jury, prosecutor, and defense attorney, and the only one who can pardon (Matt. 13:40-43; 25:41-46; John 5:22-30; Acts 10:42; II Cor. 5:10; II Tim. 4:1; Heb. 9:27; 10:25-31; 12:23; II Pet. 3:7; Jude 6-7; Rev. 20:11-15). This final judgment will answer and reveal His plan and reasons to all (Psalm 50:16-21; Acts 14:16; Rev. 6:10; 16:5-7; 19:1-5).

The question that the Blood demands is this: Do we fully understand that we have been rescued from sin and darkness and from hopeless despair? Has that hit home? Are you filled with gratitude because of what Christ has done? To venture further in the faith beyond our saving faith, we have to take heed and be encouraged that God is our rescuer! Therefore, we are to respond in gratitude for His provision and gifts!

The God who ordains the ends (from creation to salvation) and numbers our hairs, also ordains the means to the ends...

Repentance is the result of the acknowledgment of what Christ has done, and not the cause of Christ giving you grace.
