THE GREAT WHITE THRONE JUDGMENT - At the end of the Millennium, all unbelievers will appear before the Great White Throne of God, where they will be judged according to their works (not sins). At this time, all unbelievers will be ultimately condemned based upon their unpardonable sin of rejecting Jesus Christ as Savior. Having in effect made the decision to stand on their own human merits, God will judge their human good and find no righteousness. (Rev 20:11-13) These verses describe the final event of all of human history. God is putting the last period on the last sentence of the last paragraph of the last page. This is the final judgment of all who die lost, never having repented and never having received Christ as their Savior.
The awesome and final judgment. There is no pleasure whatsoever in even thinking about ANYONE being thrown alive into a lake of fire for all eternity. Also: God takes no pleasure in it either…God never made hell for people…hell was created for the devil and his angels, and the people who end up in hell will be those who reject God’s way of escape, and never get saved. God doesn’t send people to hell…sin does…and so all must accept His salvation from sin!
It will be the darkest hour of human history…this is the supreme court of the universe! All the lost will be judged, and after the verdict is read, it is final…there will be no appeals. The sentence is a life/death sentence—a death row and torture chamber wrapped up in one, with no end for all eternity.
The lost will be standing before this throne and will be overcome with Gods incredible sense of power. Some talk in this life about what they’re gonna tell God when they see Him face to face…oh no they won’t! The person who never got saved will not be able to do anything but weep and tremble. Their mind may go back to each time they took His Name in vain, but they won’t be able to use it in vain on this occasion. They may think of jokes they told about hell, but there will be no joking on this day. They may remember the way they used to think about hell, but the reality of what it’s really like will now sink in.

All will realize that everything they ever lived for on earth is gone forever, everything they put before God is gone, all their possessions, all their pleasures, popularity, prestige, all their family, their children…gone…disposed of…and they are left with God alone, Who now must dispose of them!
Many on that day will stand before God and want to say, “I’m a good person.” But that will mean nothing compared to His unapproachable purity. The only way you can be pure enough to stand before God is to be washed in the blood of His son Jesus! You either put Him on the throne of your heart in this Life, or you’ll stand before His Great White Throne on THAT day.
