All over the year, Orthodox Christians remember historical biblical events such as Christmas, Epiphany and His glorious Resurrection from the dead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But there is an event that has yet to happen, which we await with trepidation and at the same time with joy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This event is the Last Judgment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Lord will come again in glory. He will come to judge the living and the dead, placing some at His right side, others at His left. Therefore, a Christian should constantly judge himself, if he lives in the light of the Gospel or nor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cRemembering the Last Judgment, we strive to bring active repentance and through this change for the better.
