If you have ever looked inside yourself then you know that you can do no wrong. There are experiences and that is all. No judgement will fall on you. Maybe from humans but not any god.

To clear some things up, I was raised in the catholic church and I have surely read the bible. I didn't let my education be limited to just the bible. I continue to read many different things and educate myself on many subjects. Education is a continual process and should be expanded throughout our entire life.

I also love that everyone just assumes that I do not believe that God and Jesus are real. Well I do, but I also know that they never intended for us to worship them. I really feel it was more "lead by example".

And by the way, right and wrong are merely perceptions of any individual. Some things that I think might be wrong, you might not. Individual perceptions.

From my experience, there's no escaping the law of cause and effect. If you plant corn and water it, chances are good that corn will grow right there. I don't necessarily see God judging each action, although it could be. What I perceive is a rather mechanical universe (that perhaps God set that way) that returns everything you do with absolute mechanical precision.
I read about this sowing and reaping thing and wasn't sure. But over many years, I've gotten to see it in action. I watched good people reap harvests of good stuff, and seen meanness come back at the doer like lightening.
Can we really do no wrong? Hey, you could be right about that. But if the individual reaps a harvest of pain, then they'll definitely be asking themselves, 'ouch! how did this happen?"

I don't know that we can all do no wrong. I have done plenty of wrongs but the belief of the Gods judging us upon our demise has existed for centuries. Clear back to Ancient Egyptian times when your heart was weighed against the feather of Maat by the great guardian and God of embalming, Anubis. I agree that everything that we do is an experience and that we are not going to burn in fire and brimstone for eternity for our wrong doings. Humans cast the greatest judgement.

Everyone does not God will judge us. Many deny His existence and hate any mention of His name (just look at the vitriol spilled on some of these Q&As).
The Bible says He will:
"And I saw a great white throne, and him that sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away; and there was found no place for them. And I saw the dead, both small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works. And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works. And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death. And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire." (Revelation 20:11-15)

I really didn't know if there really was a God either, but I thought I had better find out. So I prayed and told Him that I was going to search with all I had and if I found Him I would serve Him and if not then I would know I really tried. It didn't happen overnight, I searched many Church's, I prayed, I read the bible. One day I read about the infilling of the Holy Ghost, I told God if I need that I want that. The next Sunday morning in a church that didn't even really preach on it, I lifted my hands and began to speak in another language. I understood at that moment that it wasn't me it had to be Him. If that part is true all of it is true. Yes He is going to judge us but if we truly know Him.

Not everyone believes it, but those that do put a lot of faith in the bible. The fact that someone would believe a God would judge them is easily compared to someone believing that ghosts exist. There is no proof of such events, there are beliefs in this, hoaxes and such but no hard evidence and to make this point justifiable, people will always turn and say it's all about faith.

God has said numerous, too numerous to count, that he will judge us all. You will stand before the throne of God and he will show you the bad things you did in your life that you haven't repented of. He doesn't only do it for punishment, it is to teach us, to make us better. No one is perfect. If you say you can do no wrong, then you are only lying to yourself. Everyone does wrong, it is human nature to make mistakes. That is why we are here, to learn from our mistakes, to make ourselves better. If I can't do wrong, then why is it that I do something and then feel bad about it for days on end?? It isn't because I've been taught all my life that that one thing is wrong, it's because I have a consience.

Um you have definitely not read the Bible.
It clearly states that it is appointed once for man to be born and then then JUDGEMENT.
I am afraid that you are going to very surprised after death.
Jesus Christ is real and so is God and the Holy Spirit.
It makes absolutely no difference if you believe me or not.
God exists and you will be judged.

It sort of depends if you believe on a god or not. People say that god doesn't exist because no one's ever touched, smelled, or seen him. But I have to ask a question: can you see, hear, touch, or smell your brain? If not, then it doesn't exist. If you have faith in god, then you will believe, and eventually KNOW that he does exist, is all powerful, and can indeed bring judgement upon the righteous and the wicked. Hey, I believe my brain exists, so why shouldn't I believe God exists as well?

We all do wrong every day. We are imperfect and sinful, so we all sin. That's why only God can be the judge, we can't judge eachother. The only way we can do no wrong is if we have no morals.

Because God id a fair and a just God. If He lets you go to Heaven because you think you have done good, think again. No one can do good while living in the body of sin that every body inherited from Adam. Justice of God must be taken, and guess who paid for your sins and justify you before God. I leave it open for you to guess.
