At the end of time we are all going to face the final judgment and so lets take a look at what the bible teaches us on the topis.
The Judgment
As we ascend to meet the Lord in the air (1 Thess. 4:17), we shall put on new, incorruptible bodies (1 Cor. 15:35-54).
These bodies will be eternal in nature to make us suitable for our everlasting rewards. This body is one that pleases God (v. 38).
With only this information revealed, we must trust God, and prepare ourselves for the Judgment.
The Judgment will take place with "the dead small and great" (Rev. 20:12) before God.
We will be parted to the right and the left as the sheep and goats (Matt. 25:32-33).
We will be judged by our works and obedience to the Bible (Eccl. 12:13-14; Jn. 12:48; Rev. 20:12-13; 22:12).
If our name is written in the Book of Life, we can enter Heaven (Exod. 32:32; Psa. 69:28; Lk. 10:20).
If our name is not there, we will be cast into Hell (Rev. 20:15; 21:27).
In the song titled, "Is My Name Written There?" It brings meaning to the things we have studied. This song asks the question we must ask ourselves, "Is my name written there?" If our name is not written in the Lamb's Book of Life, we are promised an eternity in outer darkness forever punished in fire (Rev. 20:15; 21:8).
We all must examine ourselves, and make our life right with God in obedience to His word. We have been warned of our Lord' s coming, and that last day. Now, let us prepare for that day (Amos 4:12).
The next article will conclude our look at the last days I hope these have been of use to you.
