Hello everybody, it's minister tall23 back to our video. This is another video on the
basic doctrines of the Bible. In this video I want to talk about the subject
of the final judgment. So we believe also in the final judgment of the
unbelievers, that is that one day the Lord God will judge all the
unsaved according to their works and will cast them finally into the
lake of fire where they will burn forever and ever. This final judgment
is described in the book of Revelation as taking place after the
thousand years in which Christ reigns and rules upon this earth with his
saints. In Revelation chapter 20 verse 11 to 15 it says,
So Jesus Christ, who is called in the Bible, judge of the quick and the dead, shall sit in a great white throne and all of the dead, all those who have died in their sins, who have not been saved, will stand before the throne of judgment, before the face of God. These are those who are dead, who are once burning in hell, but will be delivered out of hell for this short period of time so that they could be judged. At this time every person who has ever died, who is
unsaved, shall be before the Lord God in heaven. At this time no matter what
they felt about God in their earthly life, they shall all bow down to the
name of Jesus Christ. In Philippians chapter 2 verse 10 11 it says that if
the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth,
and things under the earth, and that every tongue should confess that Jesus
Christ is Lord to the glory of God the Father. So at the great white
throne judgment every person in heaven, in earth, and under the earth, that would
be those in hell, will bow the knee unto the name of Jesus and confess that he
is the Lord. However for them who trust in their works it's too late.
Unlike the saved, who Jesus promised will never come into condemnation, these
people who have died in their sins will be judged according to their works.
And since the Bible teaches that our righteousnesses are as filthy rags, and
since the Bible says that all have sinned and come short of the glory of God,
not a single one of these untold billions of people shall attain to the
standard which God has set, but they will all be condemned. Jesus mourned in
Matthew chapter 12 verse 36 but I say unto you that every idle word that men
shall speak they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment. Not a
single thing shall escape from the knowledge of God but every deed done
by man and every word spoken the Lord knows and he will judge them
according to their wickedness. As it's written in Proverbs 15 verse 3 the
eyes of the Lord are in every place beholding the evil and the good. So
Jesus promised unto the unsaved Jews of his day that they would be condemned
because they trusted in the law of Moses instead of in the Lord. In John
chapter 5 verse 45 it says do not think that I will accuse you to the
Father there is one that accuses you even Moses in whom you trust. Not a
single person has ever followed the law of Moses and therefore they will be
accused by that very law which they trust in. These are the books that are
opened up at the throne of God alongside the book of life. As it says in
Revelation 20 15 whosoever was not found written in the book of
life was cast into the lake of fire. So those who had not been given the gift
of life through the Lord Jesus Christ will be cast in the lake of fire which
is the second death because they've not had their sins forgiven through
faith on the Lord Jesus Christ they're condemned already. Jesus says in John
3 18 he that believeth on him is not condemned but he that believeth not
is condemned already because he hath not believed in the name of the only
begotten Son of God. The Lord knew from the beginning who would not
believe and therefore their names are blotted out of the book of life. God
will righteously judge all of mankind and all those who did not
trust Christ as their Savior shall be thrown into the lake of fire based
on their wicked deeds where they will burn forever and ever. So thank you
everybody for watching and goodbye.
