Q&A Home > J > Judgment / Judgment Day

When Jesus Christ comes down to Earth on the last day, is He going to send the rest of the people that have lived until that day to hell, or are some people going to be sent to heaven as well?

The people that remain alive until the coming of the Lord, if they are righteous, they will go to heaven with Him; those who are ungodly, will go to hell. When our Lord Jesus Christ returns in His glory, then Judgment Day will be at hand. Until this time, all who have died in the Lord have gone to Paradise waiting this Day. All who have not repented and died have gone to Hades, also waiting this fearful Day. Those in Paradise will live with Christ eternally in heaven, and those in Hades will also live eternally, but in Hell. We pray and ask for God's mercy. In addition, those who will be alive at the Second Coming of the Lord, then the righteous will change to the glorified body (1 Corinthians 15: 51-54), and then, they will be caught to meet the Lord on the clouds (1 Thessalonians 4:17) and this will happen after the resurrection of the departed (1 Thessalonians 4:15,16), and the ungodly who will be alive at the Second Coming of the Lord will go to Hell.
