Matthew 25:31-46

1. No resurrection
2. Living nations judged
3. On the earth (Joel 3:2)
4. No books described
5. 2 Groups named- Sheep, Goats, and Brethren
6. Time is before the millennium

Revelation 20:11-15
1. A resurrection is named
2. The DEAD are judged
3. Heaven and earth are gone
4. BOOKS mentioned and opened
5. Only one group- the DEAD
6. Timing is after the millennium whether a literal 1,000 years or not.

These 2 need to be distinguished and hope this helps.

Hi aw Smiley Matthew 25:31-46 is a prophetic parable about the judgement. As Jesus is not really going to judge real sheep and goats.

God bless you

I guess one of the points I was attempting to make is that neither passage is related to "BELIEVERS."

We arae never judged as to CONDEMNATION. (Romans 8:1,2; John 5:24, et. al.)
