St. John Chrysostom, whom we often refer to
St. John Climacus, of the Ladder, he said
St. Cyprian of Carthage
St. Augustine, Blessed Augustine of Hippo
St. Simeon the New Theologian
The judgment really is: How do we relate to every single human being? Because for us, every single human being is Christ himself.
At the end of our earthly life and at the end of the age, every single human being will stand before the judgment seat of Christ. As Chrysostom said, “No judge, no jury, no prosecuting attorney, no defense lawyer—just Christ and me.” Christ and us. And the question that will be asked: “Were you a lover? Did you love in concrete acts of righteousness?” And: “Were your acts of righteousness, your good deeds, filled with love? Were they done out of love? Because if they were done to the least, lowliest human being,” God almighty says to us in the Person of his Son, Jesus, “then they were done to me.”
