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.

Funny, that word, "believer." What about the Parable of the Good Samaritan? Two "believers" passed the poor man by; but the Samaritan stopped and did something about it. He helped the man, not caring who he was.

I personally am tired of so many "believers" who take pride in their "belief" but are absolved from doing anything, on the premise that it will never be enough.
