What Will Happen On The Day Of Judgment?

While there is no passage outlining the exact order of that final day, we can read of each of the following events and know that they will be included:

 First of all, that day will come at a time when we are not expecting it:

 For this reason you also must be ready; for the Son of Man is coming at an hour when you do not think He will. Matthew 24:44

 …you yourselves know full well that the day of the Lord will come just like a thief in the night. While they are saying “peace and safety” then destruction will come upon them suddenly like labor pains upon a woman with child, and they will not escape.  2nd Thessalonians 5:2-3

The Lord will descend with the shout of the archangel and the trum-pet of God:

 For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet of God…  2nd Thessalonians 4:16

All of the dead will be raised, the unrighteous as well as the righteous:  

Do not marvel at this; for an hour is coming, in which all who are in the tombs will hear His voice, and will come forth; those who did the good deeds to a resurrection of life, those who commit-ted the evil deeds to a resurrection of judgment.  John 5:28-29

Every knee will bow before the judgment seat of God, every tongue will give Him praise and then we will all give an account of our-selves and the deeds we have done while in the body:  

…we will all stand before the judgment seat of God. For it is written, AS I LIVE, SAYS THE LORD, EVERY KNEE SHALL BOW TO ME, AND EVERY TONGUE SHALL GIVE PRAISE TO GOD”. So then each one of us will give an account of himself to God.  Romans 14:10-12  

For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, so that each one may be recompensed for his deeds in the body, according to what he has done, whether good or bad.  2nd Corinthians 5:10

The entire physical universe will be destroyed with fervent heat:

But the day of the Lord will come like a thief, in which the heavens will pass away with a roar and the elements will be destroyed with intense heat, and the earth and its works will be burned up.  2nd Peter 3:10

Those who do not know God or have not obeyed His gospel, will be punished with everlasting fire:  

…when the Lord Jesus will be revealed from heaven with His mighty angels in flaming fire, dealing out retribution to those who do not know God and to those who do not obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus. These will pay the penalty of eternal destruction…   2nd Thessalonians 1:7-8  

Saved mortals will be changed into immortals:  

Behold, I tell you a mystery; we will not all sleep, but we will all be changed, in a mo-ment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet;; for the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised imperishable, and we will be changed.   1st Corinthians 15:50-54  

The saved will meet the Lord in the air:

…the dead in Christ will rise first. Then we who are alive and remain will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air, and so we shall always be with the Lord.   2nd Thessalonians 4:16-17

Kingdom will be delivered up to God:  

…then comes the end, when He hands over the kingdom to the God and Father… 1st Corinthians 15:24
