Paul's argument continues as he moves on to talk about God's judgement being just and good and will be the final judgement. He challenges his readers not to be caught in the position of judge, because it is not our place to judge. When we do we place judgement on others we state a fact: we too can be judged! We need to give God his place and allow him to be the judge of our lives and the world. Those who know and love Christ have nothing to fear, but those who don't follow Christ have everything to fear. But yet, grace remains. God's kindness should point us to him and his love and as Paul concludes this section he tells us a wonderful truth in verse 11: For God shows no partiality.
