Die Once, Face Judgment

“People are destined to die once, and after that to face judgment.” Hebrews 9:27. When most people read this text, they just take it to mean that the present life of every human is some kind of test that each of us undergoes, at the end of which we die and then face God to be sentenced with reward or punishment based on our performance. Is this understanding scriptural? What is judgment according to the Scriptures?

Judgment Day

Those of the second resurrection wake up to a "krisis" i.e. Judgment. It is indeed Judgment Day for them. But what exactly is Judgment Day? Why do Scriptures link it to the Kingdom of God? And how long is it? Is it a 24-hour day? And why does the Bible say the inhabitants of the world will learn righteousness when God's judgments come upon the Earth?

Tartaroo – Bad Angel Lockdown

The Greek word tartaroo occurs only once in the Bible and has been translated as hell. "God spared not the angels that sinned, but cast [them] down to hell, and delivered them into chains of darkness, to be reserved unto judgment." (2 Peter 2:4). – Here, the entire phrase ‘cast down to hell’ is translated from the one Greek word tartaroo. Some misuse this verse to support a netherworld where fallen angels and sinners are held forever. But there are obvious problems with that view.

The Times of Restitution of All Things

God is the Savior of ALL men, SPECIALLY of those that believe (1Tim 4:10). This scripture promises God's redemption for ALL humans and also a SPECIAL salvation for the believers. How does that work? And Jesus says, 'To the one who does my will to the end, I will give authority over the nations' (Rev 2:26). What are these nations and why are they going to be ruled by the followers of Christ?
