Judgment happens to all.

I’ve already been judged. That all happened when I was born again.

Everyone has a choice. Accept Christ and His forgiveness and let Him be your righteousness, or stand on your own works and Scripture is clear where that will end up.

Anyone who is waiting for their judgment later to be judged on their works will get it, sure enough, but really has got some worrying to do. Their works will damn them.

Romans 2: 5 But in accordance with your hardness and your impenitent heart you are treasuring up for yourself wrath in the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgment of God, 6 who “will render to each one according to his deeds”:[a] 7 eternal life to those who by patient continuance in doing good seek for glory, honor, and immortality; 8 but to those who are self-seeking and do not obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness—indignation and wrath, 9 tribulation and anguish, on every soul of man who does evil, of the Jew first and also of the Greek; 10 but glory, honor, and peace to everyone who works what is good, to the Jew first and also to the Greek. 11 For there is no partiality with God.

That's not what Paul says. He says future Judgement.

Anyone who is waiting for their judgment later to be judged on their works will get it, sure enough, but really has got some worrying to do. Their works will damn them.

Anyone who relies on works alone, sure.
