<TITLE>25. Par 198-210</TITLE>L-198 And here He comes back for the judgment upon the nations. Paul said, "Dare any of you all go to court that has a matter against one another, can't take care of these little things, knowing not that the saints shall judge the earth?" Here's the judgment that had been given over to Christ and His saints; they're the attorneys in the box; there He sets at the throne. Here's the Bride, the attorney.
And here comes these up. The Books were opened, and another Book which is the Book of Life.
Now, the first Book was the Book of the sinner; that was cast away. All right. He's condemned to begin with. There's the--there's the goats. He don't even have a chance (See?); he's a sinner to begin with. All right, now, he's cast away.

L-201 And to the sheep, they stood the judgment. They had to be judged, and the saints had to judge them. God is not unjust. If a heathen's down in the land, and we are building eight and ten million dollar gold shrines here in America instead of taking the message to them over there, God's going to hold us responsible, but spare them. Sure. God is not unjust.
You--you here, if you never seen this before, you--you may not be held responsible; but you're responsible now. See? You're only responsible... And we're responsible for taking the message; you're responsible whether you hear it or not.

L-203 Now, the heathens will rise, them people who's out there worshipping a shrine. They don't know no better. They don't know nothing about it. God's not unjust; He would not condemn them unless they'd had a chance. And they will be allotted a place.
And so in the church, that each age down through this church age, from--from Ephesus on down to down here, the message, the true message of Christ like it was at the beginning (the baptism of the Holy Ghost, the power, the resurrection, speaking with tongues, interpretation of tongues, gifts of healing, baptism in the Name of the Lord Jesus, all those things that He taught), each one that's in that Bride will stand as an attorney.

L-205 Here comes somebody's case up: "You had a meeting at So-and-so, did you tell him?"
Now, the attorney: "Yes, I told him." There it is on the Book; you can't deny it; even our thoughts are on That. See? You can't deny it. "Yes, I told him that he must be baptized."
"In Jeffersonville, there in the Tabernacle?"
"Yes, sir, I--I... You..."
"Yeah, here it is on the Book; you told them that they must do it. They--he even searched the Scripture and found out it was right, but didn't do it."
"Depart from Me, you worker of iniquity; I didn't even know you." See? There's where He separates the goats from the sheep (You see?), casts some on the right side and some on the left side. There brings your three classes back again.

L-210 But this class will never be with that class; that's the Bride. And, you notice, the Bride is with Him in the temple. The others labor and bring their glory into the Kingdom, but the Bride is with the Bridegroom continually. The others will never be 'lotted like these down here; they'll serve; they'll not be cast away (because He separated them as sheep from goats). But he...
But the goat had no understanding of it; he didn't care about it. He was a goat and satisfied as a goat, and so he just died as a goat, and that was the end of him. That was all. See?
But the sheep, if he has... If God hold it... There standing there was the heathens that never heard a thing. So if you preach this Gospel to the people...
