Judgement

A friend asked me about last judgement. Here are the three judgements passages found in the Bible:

1. The separation of Sheep and the Goats (Matthew 25:31-46)
2. Bema Seat of Christ (Romans 14:10-12, 1 Corinthians 3:13-15, 2 Corinthians 5:10, 1 Peter 4:18)
3. Great White Throne Judgment (Revelation 20:11-15)

Some believed all these are actually one judgement. Some believed that there are two judgements, one for believers, one for unbelievers. Some believed in three judgements, the separation of sheep and goats is also called judgement of the nations.

Then we have to consider the chronology, if we assume it to be three. Everyone agrees that Great White Throne Judgment is the last judgement. Some believed that Bema Seat of Christ judgement occur after the rapture. If the separation of Sheep and the Goats is not the same as the Bema Seat of Christ judgement, then, it seem to occur at the Second Coming, to judge the nations after the great tribulation.
