The ONLY sin that condemns is that of unbelief??
Brother, I must go now ---
But you state doctrine that can bring to the loss of a soul's salvation.
James 3:1
YOU will be judge by God and I fear for those who heed your words.
The Holy Spirit is placed IN US.
This is why Jesus said He must GO AWAY so the HOLY SPIRIT can come to be our paraclete.
John 16:7
And are you going to exegete
John 5:28-29 for me ??
When are you going to understand that according to prophesy this age of grace (over 1900 years) is not the age of the law which has passed away.
This grace age will pass away too with the completion of the body of Christ (this age of grace)
When the children of God have been taken (caught up) out of this world God will go back to dealing with the Jews. There will be 7 years of God pouring out His wrath on those that refused to believe Him, both Jew and Gentile. This is the promised "Jacob's trouble", meaning Israel's trouble. After that 7 years Jesus will reign for a 1,000 years on this earth in a Jewish kingdom. At the end of the 1,000 years all those who have not already been resurrected will be resurrected and judged. But the children of God have already been taken out of the world before the 7 years because they will not go through the wrath of God on an unbelieving world.
John 5:28-30
28 Do not marvel at this; for the hour is coming in which all who are in the graves will hear His voice
29 and come forth — those who have done good, to the resurrection of life, and those who have done evil, to the resurrection of condemnation.
30 I can of Myself do nothing. As I hear, I judge; and My judgment is righteous, because I do not seek My own will but the will of the Father who sent Me.
NKJV
this will help;
First I wish to say that what is written in this post is what I believe. I do not write it to refute, or criticize anyone. I give everyone the right to believe as they wish. I also take that right for myself. I offer this post as food for thought.
My interpretation of 1 Cor. 15:20-28
20 But now Christ is risen from the dead, and has become the firstfruits of those who have fallen asleep.
*** No one had been resurrected into new bodies that will not die until Christ. He is the firstfruit.
21 For since by man came death, by Man also came the resurrection of the dead.
22 For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ all shall be made alive.
*** Indeed, "All men shall be resurrected from the dead (made alive)." The use of the word "all" is inclusive and means all. In John 5:27-29 below we see again that “all” men will be resurrected.
23 But each one in his own order: Christ the firstfruits, afterward those who are Christ's at His coming.
*** NOTE, NOTE; The statement "But each one in his own order" indicates that there is a set order (time) for each event. It is also important to notice the words "those who are Christ's at His coming." There is no mention of those who are not Christ's because they will not be resurrected at His coming. This is important and must not be overlooked. See John 5:27-29 below. --- It should also be noted that between verse 23 and 24 there will be an earthly kingdom rule of Christ for a thousand years.
24 Then comes the end, when He delivers the kingdom to God the Father, when He puts an end to all rule and all authority and power.
25 For He must reign till He has put all enemies under His feet.
26 The last enemy that will be destroyed is death.
27 For "He has put all things under His feet." But when He says "all things are put under Him," it is evident that He who put all things under Him is excepted.
28 Now when all things are made subject to Him, then the Son Himself will also be subject to Him who put all things under Him, that God may be all in all.

*** During the 1000 year rule of Christ (verse 25) there will be people who are still in the flesh living on the earth and Christ will rule over them. These people can still die (their first death). It should be noticed that those who died ""without"" Christ have not been resurrected because it is not yet their time. At the end of Christ's rule on earth all the remaining dead will be resurrected and death of the flesh will be destroyed. But not the "Second Death." Flesh bodies will no longer exist. Only resurrected bodies that do not die will exist. In the statement "The last enemy that will be destroyed is death" THERE IS NO MENTION OF "THE SECOND DEATH." At this time there will be the "Great White Throne Judgment." All names that are NOT found written in the "Book of Life" will be thrown into the Lake of Fire, which is "THE SECOND DEATH." (see John 5:27-29 and Revelations 20:12-15 below). If death and the second death are the same death then why call it by another name?
John 5:27-29 . (NIV)
27 And he has given him authority to judge because he is the Son of Man.
28 "Do not be amazed at this, for a time is coming when all who are in their graves will hear his voice
29 and come out-- those who have done good will rise to live, and those who have done evil will rise to be condemned.
Verse 29 Those who have done evil will rise from the first death of the flesh and then die the 'Second Death.'
*** Although "ALL" will be resurrected not "all" will be saved. Some will die the "second death" mentioned in the scriptures. The second death is being in the lake of fire separated from God. But they will finally know that God exists and that they rejected Him. They will know it forever. As the scriptures say "all men will be drawn to Christ," some to be the children of God and some to be judged by Christ. It is written in John 3:18; "He who believes in Him is not condemned; but he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. Jesus is the rightful judge. For those that say the word condemned does not mean that the person will not go to heaven let me give another reference; John 3:36, "He who believes in the Son has everlasting life; and he who does not believe the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God abides on him." The message is very clear 'shall not see life.'
Rev 20:12-15
12 And I saw the dead, small and great, standing before God, and books were opened. And another book was opened, which is the Book of Life. And the dead were judged according to their works, by the things which were written in the books.
13 The sea gave up the dead who were in it, and Death and Hades delivered up the dead who were in them. And they were judged, each one according to his works.
14 Then Death and Hades were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death.
15 And anyone not found written in the Book of Life was cast into the lake of fire.
