is a defendant and an audience in the court but the judge cannot attend because he is sick or something happens to him. Justice could not be performed.

In heaven, there are thrones, the occupants of which will be given authority to judge. The judges will be required to decide the guilt of many souls. The judgment will begin after these judges have been chosen. That’s will be the final judgment. The number of judges has been decided in heaven. It’s 144,000. “Then I looked, and there before me was the Lamb, standing on Mount Zion, and with him 144,000 who had his name and his Father’s name written on their foreheads” (Rev. 14:1). The souls of the dead must be judged, and there are tens of billions of dead people, but their sentences have been suspended until judges are appointed.

The spiritual world is different from what we think. There is no time concept like 10,000, or 5,000 years ago. We only count on history in this world. God in the present is the same as in the past. He always has been the same, before or after he created Adam and Eve. The spiritual world does not have the same time concept as this world. It’s the

same as the man frozen for 3,000 years and the guy from yesterday, who can’t feel how long it took them to wake up.

Paul said, “Listen, I tell you a mystery: We will not all sleep, but we will all be changed in a flash, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet” (1Cor. 15:51-52). All of the souls since humanity was created will awake instantly. That’s how we will feel in the spiritual world.

When God explained my responsibilities to me, he said, “What I had instructed to Zechariah, my young servant 2,500 years ago, will come true in your time.” God mentioned “2,500 years” to let me understand how long ago his prophecy was made, but it does not feel long to him. That’s the world of God.

Man’s judgment after death becomes suspended. Whether he goes to the kingdom of heaven or hell will be decided after the judgment. So that’s why Jesus said, “Whoever eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day.”

Why did Jesus say the last day? We think that the last day is the end of the world. But that’s not true. Is the end of the
