But when the last day of reckoning comes, nothing can be changed any more. Then the result of our lives will be determined for all time to come.
We need this reminder about the final reckoning because we are all thoughtless and indifferent. Jesus reminds us today that all of us, without exception, must give a very accurate and detailed account of everything in our life, even the most insignificant words that we have spoken.
He would let us know that nothing of all that we have done is forgotten. We forget quickly. But in heaven nothing is forgotten.
Is it to frighten us that Jesus comes to us with this earnest message?
Nay, anyone who knows Him knows that He does not come to frighten anybody. But among the many things He has to tell us, He has to leave with us a word also about the seriousness of life.
