THE LAST GREAT DAY


The Last Great Day features the great judgment that will occur at the end of the millenial reign of Jesus Christ on earth (John 7:37; Leviticus 23:36, 39, 33-34; Revelation 20:11-12).


The Great White Throne Judgment

What will happen to the billions who have lived and died without ever having really known the truth of God? Are they doomed to eternal damnation, even though they never had a chance for salvation? The answer to this often-pondered but much-misunderstood question is revealed through the meaning of the final Holy Day in God's great plan.

Following 1,000 years of Christ's government on this earth, "the rest of the dead" - who lived and died throughout mankind's first 6,000 years - will be once more restored to life. The books of the Bible - the criteria by which all must be judged - will be open to their understanding, and the Book of Life will be reopened so that their names might be inscribed there. Only after every human being has had a chance to accept or reject salvation will God's final judgment take place, and destroy the unrepentant wicked. After this judgment, the New Heavens and the New Earth will come into being, representing the end of the beginning and the very threshold of eternity!

Key Scriptures

John 7:37-38 On the last day, that great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried out, saying, "If anyone thirsts, let him come to Me and drink. He who believes in Me, as the Scripture has said, out of his heart will flow rivers of living water."

The Holy Days: God's Master Plan
By Roderick C. Meredith
What are the most important days on the Christian calendar? Most would say Christmas and Easter. But the first followers of Jesus Christ observed NEITHER of these days. They followed Christ's example and observed the SAME Holy Days that Jesus Christ Himself observed! The Holy Days are not obsolete "Jewish" observances, but in fact picture, in sequence, the destiny God has planned for ALL humanity. God Himself ordained these Holy Days for ALL of His people to observe.   View >>
