Will Christians stand before God in Judgment one day? We have all heard people say things like, "you will stand before God for that..." But is this true? The Bible teaches us about two judgments. One for the saved and one for the lost. It is important that we know what the Bible says about these very different judgments!

 

Bible Study Description:

Women riding many-headed beasts?  Talking eagles? Many-faced creatures that sing on a sea made of glass? The Book of Revelation can be confusing, and even a little frightening.

Although we often focus on the prophetic nature of the Revelation, it is meant to give hope to believers in every age. Let's study this often-misunderstood part of the Bible.
