32. Judgment of Sheep.Goat.Nations God's Purpose for Man

Chapter 32
The Judgment of Sheep and Goat Nations

Some time after the Battle of Armageddon, when Jesus takes His rightful place on the throne, God will pour out another judgment upon the earth.  The Judgment of the Sheep and Goat Nations will take place.  All nations of people who have survived the Tribulation Period who turned against Jesus and His people the Jews, throughout time without repenting, will be wiped out.  Nations of people who survived, or who did not participate in the Battle of Armegeddon will be separated and judged. The sheep nations of people who treated the Jews with respect were given the privilege of living on in the Millennial period of time as Jesus reigns the earth. The goat nations of people, however, who did not give honor to the Jewish people will be punished and thrown into the Lake of Fire.

These goat nations will no longer exist, with most of its people bound for the Eternal Lake of Fire.  Will there be some individuals from those nations who survived the Tribulation Period and the Battle of Armegeddon who will be allowed to live?  Very possibly.  These individuals will then be allowed to remain and become part of a sheep nation of people.

Matt 25:31-46 When the Son of Man comes in His glory, and all the holy angels with Him, then He will sit on the throne of His glory. All the nations will be gathered before Him, and He will separate them one from another, as a shepherd divides his sheep from the goats. And He will set the sheep on His right hand, but the goats on the left. Then the King will say to those on His right hand, 'Come, you blessed of My Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world: for I was hungry and you gave Me food; I was thirsty and you gave Me drink; I was a stranger and you took Me in; I was naked and you clothed Me; I was sick and you visited Me; I was in prison and you came to Me.' "Then the righteous will answer Him, saying, 'Lord, when did we see You hungry and feed You, or thirsty and give You drink? When did we see You a stranger and take You in, or naked and clothe You? Or when did we see You sick, or in prison, and come to You?' "And the King will answer and say to them, 'Assuredly, I say to you, inasmuch as you did it to one of the least of these My brethren, you did it to Me.' "Then He will also say to those on the left hand, 'Depart from Me, you cursed, into the everlasting fire prepared for the devil and his angels: for I was hungry and you gave Me no food; I was thirsty and you gave Me no drink; I was a stranger and you did not take Me in, naked and you did not clothe Me, sick and in prison and you did not visit Me.' "Then they also will answer Him, saying, 'Lord, when did we see You hungry or thirsty or a stranger or naked or sick or in prison, and did not minister to You?' "Then He will answer them, saying, 'Assuredly, I say to you, inasmuch as you did not do it to one of the least of these, you did not do it to Me.' "And these will go away into everlasting punishment, but the righteous into eternal life." NKJV

This judgment will also include those who turned against God, meaning those who took the mark of the beast during the Tribulation Period, as well as those who have turned against the Jews and the Christians.  They will be cast into the Eternal Lake of Fire.

Rev 19:20  And the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet that wrought miracles before him, with which he deceived them that had received the mark of the beast, and them that worshipped his image. These both were cast alive into a lake of fire burning with brimstone.

Another judgment of God will have now taken place.
