24. That at the appearing of Christ prior to the establishment of the Kingdom, the responsible (namely, those who know the revealed will of God, and have been called upon to submit to it*), dead and living -- obedient and disobedient -- will be summoned before his judgement seat 'to be judged according to their works', and 'receive in body according to what they have done, whether it be good or bad.'

* Clause 24 was clarified in Jan., 1898, with bro. Roberts' full agreement and support, because of the teaching of the error that one may avoid being raised for judgment by refusing baptism.

ROM 2:16

In the day when God shall judge the secrets of men by Jesus Christ according to my gospel.

ROM 14:10-12

But why dost thou judge thy brother? or why dost thou set at nought thy brother? for we shall all stand before the judgment seat of Christ. For it is written, As I live, saith the Lord, every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall confess to God. So then every one of us shall give account of himself to God.

 

1CO 4:5

Therefore judge nothing before the time, until the Lord come, who both will bring to light the hidden things of darkness, and will make manifest the counsels of the hearts: and then shall every man have praise of God.

REV 11:18

And the nations were angry, and thy wrath is come, and the time of the dead, that they should be judged, and that thou shouldest give reward unto thy servants the prophets, and to the saints, and them that fear thy name, small and great; and shouldest destroy them which destroy the earth.
