Pastor Richard "Buddy" Wimberly "Two Things are Certain" Hebrews 9:27

And they’re not Death and Taxes. Many have avoided some of their legal tax responsibility in one way or another. Some may get caught eventually but will get away with it. Although some people avert even death for a time, the truth is death is one of those things that are certain and I know that you already know that. What’s the other certain thing?
Heb 9:27  And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment:
Judgment. Judgment before God the Great and Mighty Judge.
Who will have to stand? Everyone! Every man, woman, boy and girl who has ever lived or ever will live will stand before the Mighty Judge.
That’s the other Certain thing and now everyone here knows that too. But what you may not know is that not everyone will stand at the same judgment. For there is not just one general judgment but two separate and distinct judgments, one for the believer and one for the unbeliever. The Scripture refers to the believer’s judgment as “The Judgment Seat of Christ (JSOC)” (I Cor 3:12-15) and the unbeliever’s judgment as “The Great White Throne Judgment” (GWTJ).(Rev 20:11-15) At both of these judgments the subjects are all judged according to their works (I Cor 3:12 & Rev 20:12) So what’s the difference? Only believers (saved folk) will be at the JSOC and they will all still go to Heaven when it is all said and done and only unbelievers (unsaved folk) will be at the GWTJ and they will all be cast into Hell when it is all said and done at their judgment. The question is “How to get to the JSOC?” The 2nd certain thing is that you will have to stand at the judgment. Now let me help you choose which judgment that will be. Please note: there is no where in the Bible that tells of another judgment after death that determines where you will stand before God. So this choice is made while you are still living here on this earth. You choose the destiny of your 2nd appointment before you keep your first appointment!
Heb 9:28  So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation.
Rom 10:13  For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.
Trust Christ today as Savior and reserve a place at the JSOC and a home in Heaven with Jesus and all the other believers or just do nothing at all and remain destined for the GWTJ and the Lake of Fire with Satan and all the other unbelievers.
Rev 20:15  And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.
If you will come today I will help you make your reservation for Heaven.
