Bible Note: Beja Okay I go with your idea but instead of starting with your proof text let us start with mine. Let us start in John 3:16 and apply the same form of study you want to apply to your text in Rev 20. Individual passages??? I believe my position and not yours is supportted by the the whole of the New Testament. That Jesus came not to Judge the world but to free it from Sin. Ask yourself what one condition decides the fate of person in eternity. The whole of the New Testament says it is his or her belief or lack of belief in Jesus Christ dying for their sins. In other words is their name written in the book of life since we know the instant you believe in Jesus Christ as your personal Lord and Savior you name is recorded there. This and this alone decides the unrigtheous' fate. Jesus either died for our sins or He didn't. If He did what is left to judge as far as salvation? Does that mean the unrighteous never have to face their sins? Absolutely not, I believe the instant they die they become fully aware of their sins and their eventual reckoning. |
