Lessons from a jury trial (part 1)

Jury Trial

 

  • JURY SELECTION.
  • 2 Cor. 5:10 says we must ALL stand before the judgment seat of Christ.
  • Have we ever wondered if people will be praying at the end of time judgment?
  • 2 Cor. 5:10 tells us prayers will have no effect at the end of time.
  • Acts 17:30,
  • Paul said God has appointed “a day” in which He will “judge the world.”
  • The trial at the end of time will not be rescheduled. No one will be excused for a short or long time.
  • The trial took place as scheduled and it contained A LOT of details; LOTS of notes were taken.
    1. Imagine being judged for things DONE IN THE BODY which are embarrassing, sinful, and public.
    2. We have expressions about “airing dirty laundry in public.”
    3. 1 Cor. 4:5 says Jesus will bring the “secret things to light.”
    4. What men thought would be hidden from all and forever will be clearly revealed.
  • The alleged victim was asked for some details she could not remember.
  • God is not like us; He never forgets anything because He knows all.
  • With the judgment at the end of time, there will be no “hard cases” –
  • The judgment bar of Christ will not have all the back and forth bickering seen in human courts.
  • Some will try to object on the Day of Judgment (Mt. 7:22 – Lord, “but DID WE NOT”) –
  • The case being described had a key witness recalled to rebut the defendant’s testimony.
  • At the end of time there will be no need to find or recall witnesses; any necessary facts will be available.
  • I was surprised at the small number of people in the courtroom for every day of this trial.
  • At the end of time, we will find a lot of people present.
  • Paul (2 Cor. 5:10) said ALL will be there. From the first person born to the last; no one will be absent.
  • For the most part, the jurors I sat with believed the prosecutors failed to prove their case.
  • The difference between reasonable doubt and NO POSSIBLE DOUBT.
  • 2 Cor. 5:10 says judgement will be based on THINGS DONE IN THE BODY.
  • Judgment will not be based on what people claim or want someone to think.
  • Behind the judge was a wall; on this wall was nothing but a sign with one word: INTEGRITY.
  • God has integrity, but much, much more. His judgment will be perfect in every possible way.
  • Jurors were asked if they could and would vote based on the law instead of feelings.
  • If we are not in a right relationship with God, we need to correct that and correct that today.
  • SLIDE
  • The jury room where I spent several hours buzzed with activity.
  • People were allowed to think, dig, ask questions, and likely walk away with newfound knowledge.
  • The Bible class can be and should be one of the greatest highlights of our week.
  • We can calmly think, reason, discuss, and draw conclusions about a book better than any civil/criminal trial.
  • I would strongly encourage you to take each of those reasons and find a way to overcome them.
  • SLIDE – the judgment is coming – are we ready?
