54
The dead before the throne of God and the books are opened
Revelation 20: 11 – 15
And I saw a great white throne, and him, that sat on it, from whose face heaven and earth fled away and nowhere was found place for them anymore.
And Death and Hades were cast in the sea of fire. This is the second death. And whosoever was not found written in in the Book of life was cast into the sea of fire.
And I saw the dead, small and great, stand for the throne, and books were opened and another book was opened, which is the Book of life, and the dead were judged; and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works. And the sea gave up the dead, which were in it; and Death and Hades delivered up the dead that were in them, and they were judged every one according to their works.
