“The wicked will not stand in the judgment” (Psalm 1:4) “Behold, these are the wicked…I perceived their end. Surely You set them in slippery places; You cast them down to destruction” (Psalm 73:12,17-18) By the grace of God through faith in Jesus’s substitutionary death your end can be far different.
“The servant…will stand, for the Lord is able to make him stand.; (Romans 14:4) How? “the gospel…in which you stand.” (1 Corinthians 15:1) We participate in standing, though it is positively in his strength: “It was for freedom that you were set free, therefore keep standing firm.” (Galatians 5:1) Furthermore, “Put on the full armor of God, so that you will be able to stand firm against the schemes of the devil…, and having done everything, to stand firm.” (Ephesians 6:11,13)
