Dimension Six: The Final Judgment

The final judgment follows shortly after the resurrection. The resurrection, of course, is a kind of judgment for we are only resurrected once, and in the resurrection we will receive light according to the laws of God we lived. That is what Solomon meant when he said,

“But the path of the just is as the shining light, that shineth more and more unto the perfect day. The way of the wicked is as darkness: they know not at what they stumble.” (Proverbs 4:18-19)

Speaking of the resurrection the Apostle Paul wrote,

“There are also celestial bodies, and bodies terrestrial: but the glory of the celestial is one, and the glory of the terrestrial is another. There is one glory of the sun, and another glory of the moon, and another glory of the stars: for one star differeth from another star in glory. So also is the resurrection of the dead. It is sown in corruption; it is raised in incorruption:”

Discounting the Sons of Perdition which include Satan and his angels and some few others known only to God, who forever live outside the light of Christ because in their rebellion they rejected Christ knowing that he was the Son of God, in the final judgment we will all be assigned one of the three degrees of glory spoken of by Paul.

The three degrees of heaven are separated by light and truth. The highest degree of heaven is compared to the light of the Sun. The middle degree of heaven is compared to the light of the moon. And the lowest degree of heaven is compared to the light of the stars. Only those who shine like the sun will have a fullness of light and truth and will live in the presence of the Father and the Son.

That raises the question: What is light and truth? Light and truth are impossible to separate as they are in concomitant variation. As light increases so does truth; as truth increases so does light. John said

John 3:21

21 But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.

David equates light with truth.

Psalm 43:3

3 O send out thy light and thy truth: let them lead me; let them bring me unto thy holy hill, and to thy tabernacles.

Daniel equates light with knowledge and wisdom.

Daniel 5:14

14 I have even heard of thee, that the spirit of the gods is in thee, and that light and understanding and excellent wisdom is found in thee.

Truth is found in the very definition of God. God is omniscient. Omniscience means all knowledge of past, present, and future. That is the only way to have a fullness of truth. A fullness of truth means a fulness of light. In Matthew 13, it was Christ who said,
