“You and I Shall Stand Face to Face Before His Bar”

Bryan Richards

We always imagine that Christ will be our judge. However, He is not the only one who will judge us at the judgment-seat. Nephi declared, I shall meet many souls spotless at his judgment-seat…and you and I shall stand face to face before his bar; and ye shall know that I have been commanded of him to write these things (2 Nephi 33:7,11). Moroni also will be at the judgment-seat, we shall meet before the judgment-seat of Christ, where all men shall know that my garments are not spotted with your blood (Ether 12:38). The Savior gave the responsibility of judging the twelve tribes of Israel to his apostles (Matt 19:28) and the responsibility of judging the descendants of Lehi to the disciples of the Americas (3 Nephi 27:27). Therefore, the Savior and his servants, who wrote the scriptures we have today, will judge us according to our faithfulness to the light we had received in mortality.
