God's judgements are always just and right:

for you will judge the peoples with equity, 
and govern the nations on earth.

God has now given Jesus Christ the authority to judge:

30 The times of ignorance therefore God overlooked. But now he commands that all people everywhere should repent, 31 because he has appointed a day in which he will judge the world in righteousness by the man whom he has ordained; of which he has given assurance to all men, in that he has raised him from the dead.”
 

Jesus will judge his followers when he returns to the earth:
