John 5:28-29 clearly shows "All" in the graves and the same "Hour", very simple the resurrection is on the Last Day, for both righteous and wicked.
Dave you dont want to see this simple truth, just as you desire to insert 1000 years between 1 Corinthians 15:23-24 that isnt there.
Matthew 25:31-46 your interpretation of Goat has removed all wicked from the left side, and you create an intermediate third group in 100% error.
Dave you create your own private interpretations that are not found in Scripture.
Now let us inspect Truth7t7's comments a bit closer.
Ttruth7t7 has shown that he (or, she, whichever) sees the resurrection of the "unjust" at John 5:28-29 as being synonymous with the "wicked." We need to be willing to investigate further to find out if that be true.
The KJV translates that verse: John 5:28-29 "Marvel not at this: for the hour is coming, in the which all that are in the graves shall hear his voice, And shall come forth; they that have done good, unto the resurrection of life; and they that have done evil, unto the resurrection of damnation."
So if we trust that the KJV translation is correct in its translation, then, we too agree with Truth7t7. But we need to make sure that the KJV (or, for that matter, any Bible version we prefer) has translated correctly.
The literal translation of those verses as given by the translators, Westcott-Hort, is as follows:
John 5:28
mee thaumazete touto hoti erchetai hwra en hee pantes hoi en tois mneemeiois akousousin tees phwnees autou
NOT BE YOU WONDERING AT THIS, BECAUSE IS COMING HOUR IN WHICH ALL THE (ONES) IN THE MEMORIAL TOMBS WILL HEAR OF THE VOICE OF HIM
John 5:29
kai ekporeusontai hoi ta agatha poieesantes eis anastasin zwees hoi ta phaula praxantes eis anastasin krisews
AND WILL COME OUT THE (ONES) THE GOOD (THINGS) HAVING DONE INTO RESURRECTION OF LIFE, THE (ONES) THE VILE (THINGS) HAVING PRACTICED INTO RESURRECTION OF JUDGMENT.
What we find is that there is no direct mention of the wicked in verse 29, but just, "THE (ONES) THE VILE (THINGS) HAVING PRACTICED." And if we are honest, we must admit that the vast majority of us have at one time been, "THE (ONES) THE VILE (THINGS) HAVING PRACTICED." Also if honest we must admit that even yet many Christians are ones practicing certain vile things, for they are yet Christian babes and still carnal in their thinking. Truth7t7 by his or her interpretation is hiding the mercy of God in giving these babes in Christ a chance during the thousand year recreation period of this earth and its symbolic ruling heaven.
I know that many are likely confused at my comment that the New Heaven God is bringing forth in the recreation period is the symbolic "ruling heaven." There is much Scriptural proof that our high officials (our countries presidents and so forth) are considered as ruling in a heaven over this earth. So pictured as heaven sometimes merely denotes a lofty or elevated position with respect to the common people of the earth, to which ones can be appointed. If you desire a discussion of that just ask me.
The next thing we see is that the translators, Westcott-Hort, have used the word, "judgement", rather than, "damnation", as the KJV. What is the Greek word being there translated? We see in the Greek text that the word is, "krisis", which our dictionaries tell us means "decision" and that by extension it can be applied as a tribunal and by implication can mean, "justice." It is Strong's Greek dictionary G2920 for any who wish to look it up.
So the question is appropriate to ask, 'Does this then infer that these ones who have dabbled in the practice of vile sins are to be tried before a tribunal of sorts? The obvious answer is yes.
Thew wicked have been condemned already according to Jesus at John 3:18. They cannot have already been condemned unless they have already been judged. So it is rediculous to think of the wicked needing further judgment. Judgement by a tribunal is for the purpose of deciding whether one is worthy of condemnation. And the judgment which is coming is a period of time wherein those who have dabbled in the practice of certain vile sins will be damned or if they recover themselves, be allowed everlasting life along with those who defeated sin in this life. (And there some people's poor understanding of Pauls words in Romans chapter 7 will flare up. We can discuss that also if you desire.) But this merciful judgment is good news for babes in Christ who have struggled with sin. Knowing about that judgment correctly can help them to not get too frustrated and give up all together. So surely we do not want to be hiding it through mistaken beliefs.
If you have questions on what I spoke to you here, just ask me. It is OK to be wrong so long as we are also willing to be found wrong and let that wrong receive correction. That is a part of how we all grow.
