In the last couple of years, it has been brought to my attention (which makes sense to me btw) that Jesus was talking to the Jews in Matthew 25. Remember Jesus said He had sheep from a different fold meaning the gentiles.

Since I believe there is a rapture of the bride of Christ before the Trib begins, it is clear to me now that Matthew 25 is talking about the 2nd coming of Christ at Armageddon. The Jews did not know there was going to be a gentile bride then.

They still don't!

Matthew 25 sheep enter to live in the millennium kingdom. (reward) Sheep and goats separated out from the nations. (gentiles)

Ohio: Were they judged according to the "eternal gospel" (Rev 14.6) warning the inhabitants of the earth to "fear God and give Him the glory?"
I think so. Themselves fear God and give Him glory. Fed and clothed and cared for the Lord's brethren (Jews).

faith here- believe and obey God according to the eternal gospel. (different criteria)
enter the kingdom (millennium kingdom), not part of the bride.

Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels:

Here the goats already sent 'into everlasting fire'. The false prophet included?


Pls correct me if I'm wrong. I'm only trying to understand more on the topics concerning judgement.
