The 'Crisis' No True Christian will ever have to Face

There is one horrible event that no true Christian will ever have to face. The Great White Throne Judgment Day. (The Greek word for judgment is 'krisis'.)

"Most assuredly, I say to you, he who hears My word and believes in Him who sent Me has everlasting life, and shall not come into judgment ('krisis', but has passed from death into life. (Joh 5:24)

Jesus said that there are two resurrections in the last day. The resurrection of life and the resurrection of 'damnation' ('krisis'), or judgment. This word 'judgment' is sometimes translated 'condemnation' and sometimes translated 'damnation' in the New Testament. The reason for this is that there is a judgment day in God's courtroom where resurrected unbelievers are going to be found guilty, condemned, and damned. It is a day foretold in the book of Revelation, chapter 20. A day in which all those that are not written in the Lamb's book of life will be judged, condemned, and cast into the Lake of Fire.

On the other hand, 1 Corinthians 3:13-15 describes the day when Christ followers will give account for their conduct. Here we are told that though the fire will try our works, we ourselves will be saved.

Praise God that Christ paid the penalty for our sins, and that through faith in His sacrifice we can be declared in right standing with God, and not be part of that second resurrection and the last 'Crisis' on planet earth.
