"God created man(and woman) with free choice ;and that means each may choose good or evil, may choose to obey or disobey,and will be judged on his own choices."

Good post, although if I may offer some constructive criticism. Man was created with volition, although after the fall in the Garden of Eden we are dead in the spirit, a soulish people if you will also referred to as the natural man. We do have the ability to choose good or evil, but without Divine good, our good is merely a human good, which is parlayed into evil by the devil.

We are judged first by our name in the book of life and then by the Book of Works. Sin was judged on the cross. God is looking for righteous works in the coming jusgment. If one fails to have salvation, their works are good for nothing and burnt up. Those not saved are then discarded into the Lake of Fire.

Where is the "Book of Works" mentioned in Scripture?
