"For this cause came I [Jesus] into the world."- John 18:37
The first judgment day was in Eden when Adam was tested and failed to be obedient. His punishment was death. Ever since, the human family has all been dying, as part of that penalty. Jesus came to earth and gave his life to release all from that punishment. 1 Corinthians 15:22

By love serve one another. Galatians 5:13
LET us judge of our love for others, for the Lord, for the brethren, for our families, for our neighbors, for our enemies even, by our willingness to sacrifice in their interest and for their highest welfare. If we find ourselves sacrificing nothing in the interest of the Lord's cause, let us not delude ourselves by saying that we love the Lord. If we find ourselves unwilling to endure, to sacrifice in the interests of the brethren and others dear to us, let us not mistake the matter and call it love. If we find ourselves unwilling to do kindness even to our enemies when they are in need, let us make no mistake; for the Lord hath declared that a course of goodness and mercy and self-denial is the only index of a loving heart.
