A NUGGET OF TRUTH.
The investigative judgment is biblical. Jesus taught it in the parable of the wedding feast.
In Matthew 22, the guests are already inside when the King comes to investigate. They represent those who profess faith in Christ.
When the King arrives, He is not dealing with those who rejected the invitation, but with those who accepted the gospel call. He is looking to see who is wearing the wedding garment.
This is the reality of the judgment now taking place in heaven. Those who have professed faith in Christ are being investigated. The issue is not mere profession, but whether they are truly clothed in His righteousness.
Daniel 7 reveals the same investigative process: “the judgment was set, and the books were opened” (Dan. 7:10). Peter adds, “judgment must begin at the house of God” (1 Pet. 4:17).
God does not investigate because He needs information, but so His justice may be openly seen by all.
The wedding garment is the righteousness of Christ, received by faith and revealed in obedience. The man wanted the feast without the garment, the kingdom without the character, acceptance without surrender.
Jesus could not have made it clearer: first the investigation, then the reward according to our works.
