I didn't know I was going to stir up so many concepts just by not agreeing that...
'true' Christians will NOT be at the GWT.

Now we're getting somewhere, although a simple "yes" on question (2) would have done it.

Your statement above seems to mean that true Christians will be at the GWT, right?

But do you agree with MHG and me that they will not be judged at the GWT?

Without a dispensational perspective it is difficult to reconcile all of Paul’s teachings. One in particular, telling his readers that those in Christ have passed from condemnation into life is especially tricky and leads to such notions that Christians will be judged at the GWT at the end of the millennium. Nobody will be Heaven except they be cleansed by the blood of Jesus. There will be a number so large no man (in Paul’s epoch) could number them, and that BEFORE the GWT of Judgment. Those in Heaven will be there because of the Righteousness of Christ imputed to them, so there is therefore now no condemnation thus no being ‘judged’ at the GWT ... additionally, in technical terms, those Raptured or brought to Heaven during the Tribulation due to their calling upon The Savior are no longer among ‘all men great and small’ for they are a new creation. For the New Creatures there is no Second death for their spirit Bodies are alive forever more.

I might as well throw in my two cents. My opinion, and it's ONLY my opinion, because I don't think it matters a bunch. I think we born again Christians WILL be at the GWT, not to be judged, as our sins have already been forgiven.
I think we will all be there, either as observers, or witnesses for the prosecution. I think we will rise in Judgement, along with the men of Nineveh, and the Queen of the South, and condemn the lost sinners. I don't believe we have the power to "condemn" anyone. I think it is simply that we will agree with God's judgment, as He condemns them.
My opinion only, not dogmatic about it. 😀
