But whilst we are judged, we are chastised by the Lord, that we be not condemned with this world.
John Chrysostom
"Do not ye judge them that are within, whereas them that are without, God judgeth?" For since he had said, "What have I to do with judging those without;" lest any one should think that these were left unpunished, there is another tribunal which he sets over them, and that a fearful one. And this he said, both to terrify those, and to console these; intimating also that this punishment which is for a season snatches them away from that which is undying and perpetual: which also he has plainly declared elsewhere, saying, "But now being judged, we are chastened, that we should not be condemned with the world."
