Resurrection of Judgment

The resurrection for the great white throne judgment will not consist of a mixture of saved and lost, or of just and unjust. Scripture calls them "dead"-"I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God." Rev. 20:1212And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works. (Revelation 20:12). This resurrection is called by our Lord, "the resurrection of damnation," or judgment, in contradistinction to the "resurrection of life," or "the resurrection of the just."
We are further told that all
who appear before the great white throne will be judged "every man according to his works"; and who could be saved if judged according to his works? There is no account, therefore, of any being saved who are judged at the great white throne. Those who are taken to glory at the coming of our Lord, will be raised from among the dead a thousand years before the great white throne judgment. See Rev. 20:55But the rest of the dead lived not again until the thousand years were finished. This is the first resurrection. (Revelation 20:5) Thess. 4:16, 17.
