TEXT: 1 Timothy 5:24-25; Revelation 20:11-15
At the time of the Great White Throne Judgment, God will assemble before Him all the unsaved, “small and great,” regardless of what their status on earth might have been. The wicked dead are raised; death holding the body and Hades the soul, surrender their prisoners. In the agony and shame of their sins, they stand before a Throne which is described as “great” and “white.” Each sinner is face to face with God alone, and is doomed because he did not accept God’s salvation. The doom of the unsaved is a “lake of fire,” the place of isolation from God for all evil and sinners.
QUESTIONS
- When does the Great White Throne Judgment take place? What happens to the devil just prior to this time? See Revelation 20:5-10.
- The overcoming saints will not be judged at the White Throne Judgment. Why?
- What three words in verse 12 of our text show us that even a person who considers himself to be insignificant will be at the Great White Throne Judgment?
- How do we know that the sinner who has had his body cremated will still be at the Great White Throne Judgment?
- What is the importance of the record kept in the Book of Life? Why do you think this book will be opened at the Great White Throne Judgment?
- To get our names recorded in the Book of Life we must experience God’s forgiveness for our sins. How can we receive this forgiveness? See 1 John 1:9.
- How is it possible to have your name removed from the Book of Life? See Exodus 32:33.
- What is recorded in the “books” mentioned in our text?
- What is the second death? See Revelation 21:8.

THEME THOUGHTS
Time is running out! The human race today is facing a crisis that is literally unimaginable for most people. But indicators in God’s Word reveal that the dramatic events happening all around us signal the end time is at hand. In this quarter we will be delving into these events and their meanings in light of prophecy. In the heart of every true believer is the assurance that Jesus Christ will come back to earth and deal with the insurmountable troubles that face this globe, and will establish His dominion here upon earth. This quarter revolves around the statements made by a group of ancient Hebrew prophets, whose predictions and statements have the stamp of divine authenticity. Much of what they prophesied is yet to come. But we can have confidence in their predictions. All of their prophecies whose time for fulfillment has already come have been literally fulfilled with 100 percent accuracy. The events detailed by John in the Book of Revelation are interwoven with these earlier prophecies. The first lesson focusses on Christ. By establishing the validity of prophetic statements concerning Him, we provide a basis for the remaining lessons in the quarter and for our faith that soon the end-time prophecies will be fulfilled. The second lesson moves on to explore prophecies concerning the nation of Israel which have already been fulfilled. The third lesson, Signs of the Times, establishes where we now stand on the time-line of history. Succeeding lessons move on into events prophesied which are yet to come. The purpose of this quarter is to help us understand the events we are facing in this world and to recognize the urgency of being ready for the most exciting and glorious event of all—the Rapture of the Church.
