23. "I have a humble hope that I am a Christian, but I dare not be too sure. I cannot see how any one can be certain until after the Day of Judgment.”

But the Day of Judgment will be too late! If this matter is not settled before that great assize, you will then be irrevocably lost. Perhaps you are laboring under a misapprehension of what that judgment of the Great White Throne is for, and who are to be judged at that time. It will be the judgment of sinners, when all who have lived and died out of Christ will be judged according to their works. Christians will not stand there for judgment. Concerning them our Lord has said (John 5:24): "Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that send me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life.”
I like the Roman Catholic translation of this verse, which is confirmed by our Revised Version. It changes "shall not come into condemnation" into "cometh not into judgment." Here is a glorious truth revealed! The believer in the Lord Jesus will never have to be judged for his sins because Christ has been judged for them already. On account of this God justifies freely and completely all who receive His Son in faith as their Saviour. Look again at the verse quoted above. Notice that all who hear His Word and believe in Him have everlasting life. It is present possession. Therefore it is really unbelief that would lead one to say, "I hope I have eternal life because I believe in Jesus." Do not speak of humility when you are doubting God. Take Him at His word and know beyond all question that eternal life is yours.
“Though all unworthy, yet I will not doubt,
For him that cometh He will not cast out;
He that believeth, oh, the good news shout,
Hath everlasting life.”
