Exhortation to Christians on History Judging Them

History has been and is often invoked as a judge (perhaps the judge) of the morality of people and their actions.

At times, anti-Christians boldly assert that history will judge Christians as evil, stupid, backward, etc. because certain Biblical beliefs, according to them, will eventually be near-universally or universally seen as false, immoral, foolish, ignorant, outdated, etc.

In the face of that talking point, Christians must realize this fact: history, as many have aptly noted, is His story. So, what greater way to ensure that history will render a good verdict on your person and actions than to please its Author? Yes, if you please God, not only will history judge you well, but history will simultaneously condemn the ungodly who invoke it as their vindicator and your condemner!

So take heart, follower of the Lord Jesus Christ! Believe God, as He reveals Himself in His Word (Hebrews 11:6; 2 Timothy 3:15-17)! And, by that faith, love and obey Him (Galatians 5:6; John 14:21; 1 John 3:22)! Do that, and you can be absolutely certain that history will give you a good judgment!
