Judgments
Compiled by WD Kemner March 2025
There are passages in scripture that talk about specific judgments that will occur.
Separation of the Good from the Evil
Judgment will ultimately result in the separation of those that are evil from those that are good. The Good and the Bad to stand before God for separate distinct judgment after death.
The Good Seed Parable told by Jesus regarding separating Good and Evil for Judgment
Jesus illustrates the separation of the Good and the Evil with the separation of Sheep and Goats like a shepherd.
John 5:28-29; Daniel 12:2
Those that have done good will be resurrected for life eternal. While those that have done evil will be resurrected for eternal damnation.
When we are in heaven there will be many (non-Israelites) from all over the world sitting with the “founding fathers” of Israel. However, there will be children of Abraham who will be cast into the Lake of Fire.
JUDGMENT ON THE NATIONS
Will be held in Valley of Jehoshaphat
After the restoration of Israel
Judgment of ALL nations of the world for their treatment of God’s children Israel.
Joel 3:1-2
“For, behold, in those days, and in that time, when I shall bring again the captivity of Judah and Jerusalem, I will also gather all nations, and will bring them down into the valley of Jehoshaphat, and will plead with them there for my people and for my heritage Israel, whom they have scattered among the nations, and parted my land.”
Verses 3-8 of the chapter are a full listing of the crimes that they are guilty.
Verses 9-14 punishments given out
And it shall come to pass in that day, that the LORD shall punish the host of the high ones that are on high, and the kings of the earth upon the earth. And they shall be gathered together, as prisoners are gathered in the pit, and shall be shut up in the prison, and after many days shall they be visited.
The Jews were warned repeatedly to come back to God by Prophets. They continued further from God with practicing the worship of idols. They would go into captivity for punishment. Prior to that happening God WARNED the nations that He would return and they would be held in judgment for how they treated the Jews that would be coming into captivity. PRIOR WARNING in Advance!
Zechariah 1:18-21 Those responsible for scattering Judah will be judged.
Judgment Seat of Christ
This is held for the believers. 2 Corinthians 5:10-13; Matthew 16:27
Everyone will stand before the judgment seat, then bow and confess Him, then give an account.
(Therefore, this does not include the evil, the evil have already declared their stand against God)
Includes judgment and rewards for all the “works” done.
Luke 14:14 – rewarded at the resurrection
Romans 2:16 – Every secret judged by God through Jesus
1 Corinthians 3:11-15; Revelation 22:12 - Believers works will be judged
Colossians 3:24 – receive reward of inheritance
Great White Throne Judgment
This is the Judgment of the evil dead for all sins, held in Heaven in front of God.
Occurs after the Millennial Kingdom ends. Results will be all in this judgment going to Hell.
Revelation 20:5-15; Daniel 7:10; 12:2
