Won't be any Christians dying the second death... Born once, die twice...Born twice, die once...

Beautiful!

Another verse that I believe points out that Christians will not be judged at the Great White Throne Judgment is:

Rev. 20:12 ...And the dead were judged according to their works...

Christians are saved by Faith Alone, so we are not the ones being judged.

Amillennialilsm makes the mistake of trying to put all the different people, nations and Angels together into one judgement. As Walvoord points out:

It is obvious that the amillennial viewpoint is a combination of spiritualizing and literal interpretation. While they believe in a literal second advent and a literal judgment of all men, they do not apply the form of literal interpretation to the details of the many passages involved. It is because the premillenarians insist on literal interpretation of the details as well as the event that they find the various judgments differing as to time, place, and subjects.

It is obvious that the amillennial viewpoint is a combination of spiritualizing and literal interpretation.

I don't like to use the word spiritualizing in those cases...Even when a verse must be spiritualized, it is still understandable...

The Catholics and other must attach metaphor or allegory on to the phrase since they don't have a clue what it means...Most of the time it means, throw the phrase out since we can't understand it anyway, allegorized or not...

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.

I guess this is the 'is' of your interpretation.

For me; when I read 'each' it means EACH, and ALL, and EVERYONE.
