11 Then I saw a great white throne and One who was seated on it, from whose presence earth and sky fled away, and no place was found for them.
12 And I saw the dead, the great and the small, standing in front of the throne. And books were opened; and so was another book–namely, the Book of Life; and the dead were judged by the things recorded in the books in accordance with what their conduct had been.
13 Then the sea yielded up the dead who were in it, Death and Hades yielded up the dead who were in them, and each man was judged in accordance with what his conduct had been.
14 Then Death and Hades were thrown into the Lake of fire; this is the Second Death–the Lake of fire.
15 And if any one's name was not found recorded in the Book of Life he was thrown into the Lake of fire.
36 But I tell you that for every careless word that men shall speak they will be held accountable on the day of Judgement.
37 For each of you by his words shall be justified, or by his words shall be condemned.«
12 »I am coming quickly; and My reward is with Me, that I may requite every man in accordance with what his conduct has been.
27 And since it is reserved for all mankind once to die, and afterwards to be judged;
28 so the Christ also, having been once offered in sacrifice in order that He might bear the sins of many, will appear a second time, separated from sin, to those who are eagerly expecting Him, to make their salvation complete.
31 »When the Son of Man comes in His glory, and all the angels with Him, then will He sit upon His glorious throne,
32 and all the nations will be gathered into His presence. And He will separate them from one another, just as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats;«
33 and will make the sheep stand at His right hand, and the goats at His left.
37 For there is still but a short time and then »The coming One will come and will not delay.
38 But it is by faith that My righteous servant shall live; and if he shrinks back, My soul takes no pleasure in him.«
39 But we are not people who shrink back and perish, but are among those who believe and gain possession of their souls.
16 For so greatly did God love the world that He gave His only Son, that every one who trusts in Him may not perish but may have the Life of Ages.
17 For God did not send His Son into the world to judge the world, but that the world might be saved through Him.
18 He who trusts in Him does not come up for judgement. He who does not trust has already received sentence, because he has not his trust resting on the name of God's only Son.
19 And this is the test by which men are judged–the Light has come into the world, and men loved the darkness more than they loved the Light, because their deeds were wicked.
12 »I am coming quickly; and My reward is with Me, that I may requite every man in accordance with what his conduct has been.
13 I am the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last, the Beginning and the End.«
16 For so greatly did God love the world that He gave His only Son, that every one who trusts in Him may not perish but may have the Life of Ages.
31 »When the Son of Man comes in His glory, and all the angels with Him, then will He sit upon His glorious throne,
32 and all the nations will be gathered into His presence. And He will separate them from one another, just as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats;«
33 and will make the sheep stand at His right hand, and the goats at His left.
34 »Then the King will say to those at His right,« Come, my Father's blessed ones, receive your inheritance of the Kingdom which has been divinely intended for you ever since the creation of the world.
35 For when I was hungry, you gave me food; when I was thirsty, you gave me drink; when I was homeless, you gave me a welcome;
36 when I was ill-clad, you clothed me; when I was sick, you visited me; when I was in prison, you came to see me.'
37 »When, Lord,' the righteous will reply, did we see Thee hungry, and feed Thee; or thirsty, and give Thee drink?«
38 When did we see Thee homeless, and give Thee a welcome? or ill-clad, and clothe Thee?
39 When did we see Thee sick or in prison, and come to see Thee?'
40 »But the King will answer them,« In solemn truth I tell you that in so far as you rendered such services to one of the humblest of these my brethren, you rendered them to myself.'
41 »Then will He say to those at His left,« Begone from me, with the curse resting upon you, into the Fire of the Ages, which has been prepared for the Devil and his angels.
42 For when I was hungry, you gave me nothing to eat; when thirsty, you gave me nothing to drink;
43 when homeless, you gave me no welcome; ill-clad, you clothed me not; sick or in prison, you visited me not.'
44 »Then will they also answer,« Lord, when did we see Thee hungry or thirsty or homeless or ill-clad or sick or in prison, and not come to serve Thee?'
45 »But he will reply,« In solemn truth I tell you that in so far as you withheld such services from one of the humblest of these, you withheld them from me.'
46 »And these shall go away into the Punishment of the Ages, but the righteous into the Life of the Ages.«
6 So then let us not sleep, like the rest of the world, but let us keep awake and be sober.
7 For those who sleep, sleep at night, and those who drink freely, drink at night.
8 But let us, belonging –as we do– to the day, be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love, and for a helmet the hope of salvation.
9 For God has not pre-destined us to meet His anger, but to obtain salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ;
16 on the day when God will judge the secrets of men's lives by Jesus Christ, as declared in the Good News as I have taught it.
16 And, as for us, we know the love which God has for us, and we confide in it. God is love, and he who continues to love continues in union with God, and God continues in union with him.
17 Our love will be manifested in all its perfection by our having complete confidence on the day of the Judgement; because just what He is, we also are in the world.
18 Love has in it no element of fear; but perfect love drives away fear, because fear involves pain, and if a man gives way to fear, there is something imperfect in his love.
31 seeing that He has appointed a day on which, before long, He will judge the world in righteousness, through the instrumentality of a man whom He has pre-destined to this work, and has made the fact certain to every one by raising Him from the dead.«
7 »Yet it is the truth that I am telling you–it is to your advantage that I go away. For unless I go away, the Advocate will not come to you; but if I go, I will send Him to you.«
8 And He, when He comes, will convict the world in respect of sin, of righteousness, and of judgement; –
9 of sin, because they do not believe in me;
10 of righteousness, because I am going to the Father, and you will no longer see me;
11 of judgement, because the Prince of this world is under sentence.
10 For we must all of us appear before Christ's judgement-seat in our true characters, in order that each may then receive an award for his actions in this life, in accordance with what he has done, whether it be good or whether it be worthless.
