They present me with their sacrifices, and they eat the meat, but I, the Lord, do not accept them. Now he will remember their wickedness, and punish them for their sins. They will return to Egypt.
So don't judge anything before the right time—when the Lord comes. He will bring to light all the darkest secrets that are hidden, and he will reveal people's motives. God will give everyone whatever praise they deserve.
For all of us must appear before Christ's seat of judgment. Each of us will receive what we deserve for what we have done in this life, whether it is good or bad.
