White Throne Judgment:

Then death and Hades were
thrown into the lake of
fire. This is the second
death, the lake of fire.
And if anyone’s name was not
found written in the book
of life, he was thrown
into the lake of fire.
Revelation 20:14-15

End Times Judgment:

Rejoice over her, Oh Heaven,
and you saints and
apostles and prophets,
because God has
pronounced judgment
for you against her.”
Revelation 18:20

Note: Babylon is “her.”

The Last Judgment by Jean Cousin (b. 1560- d. 1589)

In 1 Peter 5:4, it says “And when the Chief Shepherd appears, you will receive the unfading Crown of Glory.” Likewise, in
175
1 Thessalonians 2:19 Paul states “For who is our hope or joy or Crown of Exultation (Rejoicing KJV)? Is it not even you, in
the presence of our Lord Jesus at His coming”? We shall receive a victory crown (not a crown of authority) after Christ
176
comes for His sheep. As we serve Him during His reign on this earth, for at least one-thousand years, there will
be opportunities for a reward. It is time to reward His bond-servants, prophets, and the saints who fear the Lord.

Revelation 11:18 “And the nations were enraged, and Your wrath came, and the time came for the dead
to be judged, and the time to reward Your bond-servants the prophets and the saints and those who fear
Your name, the small and the great, and to destroy those who destroy the earth.”
177

The context of this verse follows after Christ’s reign has begun in Revelation 11:17 which states “…You have
taken Your great power and have begun to reign.” Peter knew that this earth was destined to be burned-up with fire
upon the Day of Judgment and the destruction of ungodly evil men.

2 Peter 3:7-8 “But by His word the present heavens and earth are being reserved for fire, kept for
the day of judgment and destruction of ungodly men.”

8 “But do not let this one fact escape your notice, beloved, that with the Lord one day is like a
thousand years, and a thousand years like one day.”
