--we are not conscious; hence, we have no awareness of the passing of time (Eccl. 9:5).
--Our first conscious thought after death is of being resurrected from the dead. (1 Thess. 4:16; Rev. 20:4-6).
--Since Jesus is coming for each one of us very soon, let us concentrate on the perfecting of our characters in preparation for the judgment.
--For it is written, “each person is destined to die once, and after that to face the judgment.” (Heb. 9:27).
--Our job is not to worry about when Jesus is coming back, but to perfect our own characters in preparation for the judgment, which each of us will soon face. (....for we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ2 Cor. 5:10; This will take place on the day when God judges people’s secrets through Jesus Christ... Rom. 2:16 NLT)."
