Judgment Day / More Than One?
Scripture teaches final accountability before God. Jesus speaks of a resurrection of life and a resurrection of damnation; Paul says God appointed a day to judge the world by the risen Christ; all must appear before Christ's judgment seat. Historical covenant judgments elsewhere must be distinguished from this final resurrection and judgment.
