John 5:24 “Very truly I tell you, whoever hears my word and believes him who sent me has eternal life and will not be judged but has crossed over from death to life.

Yes. Paul addresses the believers in Romans 14:


The Greek word is G968 bema for judgment seat. HELPS Word-studies:

Dan 7:22 is the event in Judgment happens where "Judgment is passed in favor of the saints".
But that is inclusive of the scenario Christ describes in Matt 7 where a great many so-called saints are deemed to be unsaved at the end.

Rom 11 says "you stand by your faith.. you should not be conceited but fear..for if God did not spare them neither will He spare you. "

18 do not be arrogant toward the branches; but if you are arrogant, remember that it is not you who supports the root, but the root supports you. 19 You will say then, “Branches were broken off so that I might be grafted in.” 20 Quite right, they were broken off for their unbelief, but you stand by your faith. Do not be conceited, but fear; 21 for if God did not spare the natural branches, He will not spare you, either. 22 See then the kindness and severity of God: to those who fell, severity, but to you, God’s kindness, if you continue in His kindness; for otherwise you too will be cut off.

Matt 18 describes it as "forgiveness revoked".

The Bema is different from the Great White Throne, Revelation 20:

yes and no.

The Judgment in Dan 7:9-10 takes place before Christ's appearing and it is there in that pre-advent judgment of Dan 7 that we stand before the judgment seat of Christ.

IT is that judgment that determines who will be raised at the appearing of Christ - at the rapture.

By contrast - those in the second resurrection in Rev 20 are NOT those who were in the first resurrection that happened 1000 years earlier. It is that Dan 7 judgment that determines who is saved and who is not at the level of formal judgment.

The Rev 20 judgment is also "out of books" just as the case in Dan 7 -- but it results in lake-of-fire judgment on the wicked not in eternal life.

At the Great White Throne's judgment, true believers will not be thrown into the lake of fire.

because their judgment happened 1000 years before that as Dan 7 points out. And in that judgment "Judgment is passed in favor of the saints" Dan 7:22.
