I. INTRODUCTION
A. COURT SYSTEM

1. IF A PERSON IS FOUND GUILTY HE CAN APPEAL. POSSIBLE
TO APPEAL TO WHAT WE CALL THE LAND'S HIGHEST COURT,
THE SUPREME COURT.

2. ONE COURT HIGHER. GOD'S COURT.

3. OUR SYSTEM IS AT BEST IMPERFECT. GOD'S IS PERFECT.

B. THE BIBLE TEACHES GOD IS THE ULTIMATE JUDGE AND EVERY
PERSON WILL ONE DAY STAND BEFORE HIM.

1. HEBREWS 9:27 "AND AS IT IS APPOINTED FOR MAN TO DIE
ONCE, BUT AFTER THIS THE JUDGEMENT."

2. THERE IS SOME BELIEF IN ALL CULTURES, AFTER THIS LIFE

C. THE BIBLE TALKS ABOUT 7 DISTINCT JUDGMENTS.

1. PAST: THE CROSS - MAN'S SIN WAS JUDGED AND SATAN WAS

3. I CORINTHIANS 3. JUDGMENT SEAT OF CHRIST FOR THE
