60 God’s Righteous End-Time Judgment Classifies Mankind
Verse 1
In His final work of ending the age,
God’s disposition is to chastise,
to reveal all that’s unrighteous
and publicly judge all people,
perfect those who love Him truly.
This disposition can end the age.
Verse 2
The last days are here, all creation
will be classed by their nature and kind.
This is the moment when God shows
all mankind’s fate and destination.
Without judgment, man’s disobedience
and unrighteousness can’t be exposed.
Chorus
Only through chastisement and judgment
will creation’s fate be seen,
and man’s true colors revealed.
Evil goes with evil, good with good.
Evil will be punished, good will be rewarded.
People will be classed by kind,
they’ll be subject to God’s sway.
Verse 3
Man’s corruption has reached its summit,
their disobedience is severe.
Only God’s righteous disposition,
one of chastisement and judgment,
can fully change and complete mankind,
expose evil, punish the unrighteous.
Verse 4
Such a disposition entails
the significance of the age.
God reveals His disposition
for the sake of each new age’s work.
He doesn’t do it at random
or without significance.
Chorus
Only through chastisement and judgment
will creation’s fate be seen,
and man’s true colors revealed.
Evil goes with evil, good with good.
Evil will be punished, good will be rewarded.
People will be classed by kind,
they’ll be subject to God’s sway.
Verse 5
If in the last days when man’s fate is shown,
God still pours out compassion and love,
not judging, but tolerant, forgiving,
no matter how grave man’s sins might be,
then when would His management plan end,
and man meet their proper fate?
Chorus
Only through chastisement and judgment
will creation’s fate be seen,
and man’s true colors revealed.
Evil goes with evil, good with good.
Evil will be punished, good will be rewarded.
People will be classed by kind,
they’ll be subject to God’s sway.
Outro
Only righteous judgment can class man by kind
and bring them into a brand-new realm,
so God’s righteous disposition
will bring this whole age to an end.
