2) These are the Bema Judgment Seat Of Christ, just for the saved.
The Judgment Of The Sheep and Goats, The Kingdom Age Now Made.
The Judgment Of The Great White Throne, only for the lost.
And, with every judgment there, all will pay a cost.
3) The Bema Judgment Of Christ, rewards lost or gained.
But, all there, believed on Christ, who washed away sin's stain.
Gold, silver, precious stones; the works for Christ inspired.
Wood, hay, and stubble; bad works now purged by fire.
4) But all at the Bema Seat, the saved in Heaven, there.
In their own mansions that; The Lord, did prepare.
They lay their crowns at His Feet, and bow on bended knee.
These will rule and reign with Christ, for all eternity.
5) The tasks that the saved will do in Millennium Of Peace.
Determined if they served The Lord; or let their sin, increase.
Salvation guaranteed when they accepted God's Love Gift.
Believing there on Jesus Christ, sin's burden, He did lift.
6) The Judgment Of The Sheep and Goats, when Christ returns to Earth.
Ravaged there for seven years, Christ will give new birth.
The combatants slain with just a Word, from The Lord's own breath.
All those who rejected Him, now face eternal death.
7) The Time Of Jacob's Trouble, survivors gathered there.
In Valley Of Decision where, the judgment is prepared.
Those who did protect the Jews, at risk of their own life.
They'll enter Millenium, of peace, without the strife.
8) For all those who did survive, but they took the Mark.
Eternity for all these souls, tormenting, pain, and dark.
Life as it was meant to be, as in Eden's Garden Place.
The Lord rules o'er all the Earth; and all see His Face.
9) The Judgment Of The Great White Throne, is only for the lost.
Eternally, all these will pay, their sin debts huge cost.
Every thought, word, deed, and motive, all will be laid bare.
No question of the guilt that's on, every person there.
10) No doubt many will there plead; in agony, there scream.
Eternity for these a nightmare, and not a joyous dream.
They'll be shown the chance they had, to accept The Lord.
Yet, they spurned God's Free Love Gift; His Son, they all ignored.
11) Because these all failed to do, the one thing God required.
They rejected Jesus Christ, preferring sin's desires.
So, all these hear the dreadful words, from Christ on His Throne;
''Depart From Me, Into Hell Fire; For You, I've Never Known''.
12) As for the lines at these judgments, different lengths exist.
Sadly, most reject The Lord; so Heaven, they will miss.
But for all those who are saved, no matter for how long.
They will praise the King Of Kings, in eternal song.
13) Wide the gate and broad the way, destruction is their fate.
The line is long for the unsaved, realize it's too late.
Before The Lord, the unsaved bow; not eagerly, but compelled.
Declare that Jesus Christ is Lord, before they plunge to Hell.
14) Straight the gate, narrow the way, leads to eternal life.
Rather there to serve The Lord, and not the sin and strife.
Few there be that find this line, the Bema; Heaven's shore.
Where The Holy Trinity, will reign forevermore.
15) The Judgment Of The Sheep and Goats, after Christ returned.
The eternal destiny, for all these, will be learned.
A line longer than the Bema Judgment, done before.
But shorter than the Great White Throne, billions by the score.
16) Which line will you there join, when life on Earth is done??
Will you repent of all your sin, accepting Christ, God's Son??
Either Bema, Sheep and Goats, or Great White Throne for you??
Will you accept, or reject Christ?? The choice is yours to do.
