END TIMES | THE GREAT WHITE THRONE JUDGMENT

1. End Times

a) Many people are fascinated with thinking and studying about the end times. The study of Eschatology (or end times) is a very large subject. Deep down inside all of us we long to know what is next or what happens after this life.

b) If you have ever attended a funeral service for anyone you probably asked yourself this question. In fact, contemplation of what happens after this life will often lead someone to search their own faith and belief system. For us, it lead to making a decision to follow Jesus Christ as my Savior and Lord. He is the only answer that makes any sense in our mind. 

c) The Bible tells us much about not only Jesus but how this world will one day end. Major events like judgment, tribulation, abomination that leads to desolation, the rapture (or to be "caught up" according to Thessalonians), and the millennium will occur one day. 

2. The Great White Throne Judgment  

Revelation 20:11-15 
Then I saw a great white throne and him who was seated on it. From his presence earth and sky fled away, and no place was found for them. And I saw the dead, great and small, standing before the throne, and books were opened. Then another book was opened, which is the book of life. And the dead were judged by what was written in the books, according to what they had done. And the sea gave up the dead who were in it, Death and Hades gave up the dead who were in them, and they were judged, each one of them, according to what they had done. Then Death and Hades were thrown into the lake of fire. This is the second death, the lake of fire. And if anyone’s name was not found written in the book of life, he was thrown into the lake of fire.
