Divine judgment

Divine judgment is when someone believes that a god or higher power is going to judge them for their actions or behavior in life. It's like when you do something you know you shouldn't do or when you behave badly, you might feel like someone is going to punish you.

In some religions, people believe that the god they worship is the one who judges them after they die. If they have done good things, they will go to a good place or heaven, but if they've done bad things, they will go to a bad place or hell.

But divine judgment isn't just about what happens after we die. It can also refer to the idea that we are judged by God or a higher power during our lives for our actions and behavior. Some people believe that if they don't follow certain rules or behave in a certain way, they will be punished either in this life or the next.

So think of it like this: Just like how your parents might punish you if you behave badly, some people believe that a god or higher power will do the same thing. But it's up to each person to decide what they believe and how they want to behave.
