Revelation 20:11-15

To my mind this is the most awesome scene in all of the Bible. It is the Great White Throne judgment. It is enough to sober the most frivolous mind. It is a frightening, a serious, a solemn scene. I take no pleasure in dealing with this particular subject. But it is Bible truth and we must always face Bible truth. We must always study what God has to say about truth.

"Verily, I say unto you, it shall be more tolerable for the land of Sodom and Gomorrah in the day of judgment than for that city." In Hebrews 9:27 it says, "And as it is appointed unto men once to die and after this the judgment."

Daniel Webster, the great statesman, toward the end of his life was attending a luncheon. One of the people asked him a question. "What was the greatest thought to ever pass through your mind?" To which he replied, "My accountability to God."
One of my favorite preachers was Dr. R. G. Lee, for many years pastor of the Bellevue Baptist Church in Memphis. He has a famous sermon entitled, "Payday Some Day." All we young preachers used to try to preach that sermon. In that sermon he tells the truth story about a girl named Toni Jo who has committed murder. She was on death row and she was going to be electrocuted for her crime. On the day of her execution she was quoted as saying these words. "Somehow I knew all along that ...
