THE ENDZONE PART 3
What Happens After the EndZone?

16 For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of an archangel, and with the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first. 17 Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And thus we shall always be with the Lord. 18 Therefore comfort one another with these words. 1 Thessalonians 4:16-18 (NKJV )

• BE ______________________

• BE ______________________

How you live now will ________________ the New life that you will live.

What we do in life ___________________________________

TWO FINAL JUDGMENTS
1. JUDGEMENT SEAT OF CHRIST – _____________

9 So whether we live or die we make it our life’s passion to live our lives pleasing to Him. 10 For one day we will all be openly revealed before Christ on His throne so that each of us will be duly recompensed for our actions done in life, whether good or worthless. 2 Corinthians 5:9-10 (TPT)

Remember __________________ determines where we will spend eternity,

and our ___________________ determines how we will spend eternity.

So don’t make judgments about anyone ahead of time – before the Lord returns. For He will bring our darkest secrets to light and will reveal our private motives. Then God will give to each one whatever praise is due. 1 Corinthians 4:5 (NLT)

2. GREAT __________________________ JUDGEMENT

11 Then I saw a great white throne and Him who sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away. And there was found no place for them. 12 And I saw the dead, small and great, standing before God, and books were opened. And another book was opened, which is the Book of Life. And the dead were judged according to their works, by the things which were written in the books. 13 The sea gave up the dead who were in it, and Death and Hades delivered up the dead who were in them. And they were judged, each one according to his works. 14 Then Death and Hades were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death. 15 And anyone not found written in the Book of Life was cast into the lake of fire. Revelation 20:11-15 (NKJV)
