Does not Revelation state that Jesus will return to judge all men? Catholics believe that we are judged in particular, that is, one-on-one when we die; Jesus' return to us as in Revelation is what we refer to add the General Judgement.

That is not what Scripture, that the Catholic church claims it wrote, teaches.

The Judgment seat of Christ is the judgment for believers.

The general judgment is for unbelievers, who, yes, will be judged by their works.

If someone rejects Jesus and the offer of forgiveness and eternal life He extends, and would rather go on their own merit, they will be judged as they want, (by their works) and it isn't going to end well because there is none righteous, and their sin will damn them.

People need to be careful what they ask for.
