> [!title|noicon] **On Judgment and the End of the World**
<br>
✏ Judgment Day is NEAR:
- [Ezekiel 7:7](Ezekiel%207.md#^7), [12](Ezekiel%207.md#^12); [11:2](Ezekiel%2011.md#^2), [3](Ezekiel%2011.md#^3); [12:26](Ezekiel%2012.md#^26), [27](Ezekiel%2012.md#^27), [28](Ezekiel%2012.md#^28); [30:3](Ezekiel%2030.md#^3)
- [Zephaniah 1:14](Zephaniah%201.md#^14)
✏ Only the *elect* will actually rise in the resurrection because their sins have been covered by Christ:
- [Mark 12:26](Mark%2012.md#^26), [27](Mark%2012.md#^27)
✏ The unsaved do not go to an eternity of torment at death:
- [Psalm 115:17](Psalm%20115.md#^17)
- [John 5:28](John%205.md#^28), [29](John%205.md#^29)
- [Revelation 20:5](Revelation%2020.md#^5)
✏ When the unsaved die they are *eternally* dead:
- [Deuteronomy 25:1](Deuteronomy%2025.md#^1), [2](Deuteronomy%2025.md#^2), [3](Deuteronomy%2025.md#^3) (Principle that God limits punishment)
- [Job 14:12](Job%2014.md#^12)

- [2 Peter 2:4](2%20Peter%202.md#^4) (Hell itself is cast into the lake of fire at the end - [Revelation 20:14](Revelation%2020.md#^14))
✏ The Rapture is neither *silent* nor *invisible*. The dead in Christ shall rise first before those who are living are caught up to be with Christ, and that will be a worldwide event:
- [1 Corinthians 15:52](1%20Corinthians%2015.md#^52)
- [1 Thessalonians 4:16](1%20Thessalonians%204.md#^16), [17](1%20Thessalonians%204.md#^17)
- [Revelation 11:11](Revelation%2011.md#^11), [12](Revelation%2011.md#^12), [13](Revelation%2011.md#^13)
✏ The Rapture takes place on the LAST DAY into eternity, which is Judgment Day:
- [John 6:39](John%206.md#^39), [40](John%206.md#^40), [44](John%206.md#^44), [54](John%206.md#^54)

- [1 Thessalonians 5:1](1%20Thessalonians%205.md#^1), [2](1%20Thessalonians%205.md#^2), [3](1%20Thessalonians%205.md#^3), [4](1%20Thessalonians%205.md#^4), [5](1%20Thessalonians%205.md#^5), [6](1%20Thessalonians%205.md#^6) ... [9](1%20Thessalonians%205.md#^9)
✏ By principle, the true believers have knowledge concerning the end:
- [Genesis 7:4](Genesis%207.md#^4) (God informed Noah about the coming flood)
