As far as conflating; I', just posting what the Bible says about the GWT.
Revelation 20:11-15
"Then I saw a great White Throne and him who was seated on it. Earth and sky fled from his presence, and there was no place for them. And I saw the dead, great and small, standing before the throne, and THE BOOKS WERE OPENED. Another book was opened WHICH IS THE BOOK OF LIFE. The dead were judged according to their works as recorded in the books. The sea gave up the dead that were in it, and death and Hades gave up the dead that were in them, and each person was judged according to their works. Then death and Hades were thrown into the Lake of Fire. The Lake of Fire is the second death. If anyone's name was not found written IN THE BOOK OF LIFE, he was thrown into the lake of fire."
There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus. God has not appointed The Bride of Christ to wrath, but to obtain salvation to the Glory of Jesus their Savior. The coming Tribulation is not for The Brdie, for God Promises to not pour out His wrath upon those trusting Christ.
