Judgment (theology)
God's judgment, in religious contexts, refers to the idea that God punishes people in a just manner concerning their sins and that He will also eventually judge humanity as a whole. God judges people based on their actions, inactions, thoughts and beliefs. The concept of God's just judgments is central to many religions - including Christianity, Islam, and Judaism. And it frequently involves the idea of a final judgment.

Last Judgment
See also: Last Judgment
The Last Judgment is that time where all humanity comes before God to be judged, including even infants and those not yet born who have died. Those who pass will be with God in heaven for all eternity, while those who do not will be sent away to Hell. In Christian theology, God is not willing that anyone should perish, and those who do not resist the free gift of salvation made available to all will be saved, even infants and those in the womb (Job 31:18; Psalm 8:2; Psalm 139:16; Isaiah 49:1; Jeremiah 1:5; Matthew 21:16; Luke 1:41; Luke 18:15; Acts 2:39; Acts 17:27; 2 Peter 3:9; compare Psalm 58:3; Ezekiel 18:4; Romans 9:13).
