Atheist mocks God’s Judgment: “There is no evidence that would lead a thinking person to conclude that we are judged by God after we die. So why believe it?”
Christian response,
All that we see in this World finds its foundational origin in the Spiritual and much of our government is patterned after the form of Government articulated within the Scriptures and our government codifies laws with the intent to protect the citizenry via the Bill of Rights in our Constitution. One of the purposes for God’s Law (the Law of Conscience) is the sustainability of the human species as that Law acts as a bulwark against narcissism, hedonism, moral relativism, that would ultimately lead to the extinction of human kind through violence. God’s Laws will also play a vital role in Judgment as these Laws written upon our heart by our Creator will ensure equity with due process at Judgment in Eternity, everyone will be “without excuse” (Romans 1:18-32).
Man’s jurisprudence involves the codification of laws, enforcement, prosecution, judgment, punishment, as a deterrent to dangerous and destructive behavior and it’s no different in God’s Government as God’s Laws seek the very same end. Jesus is both our Judge and Attorney. For those who believe in Jesus as Lord, He has removed His black robe, exited the bench and taken our position as the guilty party in front of the bench and agreed to pay our debt to God the Father for us via a Roman Cross; that is, Jesus has paid our sin-debt in full through the shedding of His innocent blood. The sin-debt of mankind is cancelled via Covenant for everyone who believes with a sincere heart that Jesus Christ is Lord and that He died to pay their sin-debt and that Jesus was resurrected from the dead for their justification (Romans 10:9-10).
For those who reject Jesus as Lord, He will be Judge and prosecutor and you will pay your own sin-debt to God and ultimately lose both body and soul in Hell because your unrepentant sin and its destructiveness will not be permitted to enter the Kingdom subsequent to the death of your body in Time (Revelation 21:27); so then, in God’s jurisdiction and in His jurisprudence, mankind has been provided a pardon from sin i.e. death in Hell and given Eternal Life through faith in Jesus’ sacrifice via Covenant – or – mankind can choose to pay his own sin-debt with his own soul and his own resurrected body of corruption that will ultimately cease to exist in the Lake of Fire subsequent to adjudication (Revelation 20:11-15); ultimately, the choice is ours to make. God pleads with every man and woman to choose “life” by trusting in the selfless love of the Son, Jesus Christ, who died to pay our sin-debt. Doubting God’s Judgment is not wise or prudent.
