When you hear the glorious trumpets,
And you will see Jesus descending on the clouds, here to take His sheep home.
I can't wait! God bless us all!

The book of Revelation shows that Judgment Day begins after the war of Armageddon, when Satan’s system on earth will be destroyed. (Revelation 16:14, 16; 19:19–20:3)Judgment Day is not some hurried event lasting only 24 hours. It lasts a thousand years.During that thousand-year period, Jesus Christ will “judge the living and the dead.” (2 Timothy 4:1) “The living” will be the “great crowd” that survives Armageddon. (Revelation 7:9-17) The apostle John also saw “the dead . . . standing before the throne” of judgment. As Jesus promised, “those in the memorial tombs will hear [Christ’s] voice and come out” by means of a resurrection. (John 5:28, 29; Acts 24:15) But on what basis will all be judged?
According to the apostle John’s vision, “scrolls were opened,” and “the dead were judged out of those things written in the scrolls according to their deeds.” Are these scrolls the record of people’s past deeds? No, the judgment will not focus on what people did before they died. How do we know that? The Bible says: “He who has died has been acquitted from his sin.” (Romans 6:7) Those resurrected thus come to life with a clean slate, so to speak. The scrolls must therefore represent God’s further requirements. To live forever, both Armageddon survivors and resurrected ones will have to obey God’s commandments, including whatever new requirements Jehovah might reveal during the thousand years. Thus, individuals will be judged on the basis of what they do during Judgment Day.

There are actually several of them.
1) When a person is Saved, God judges that person's sins, finds them guilty, but absolves them of guilt due to Christ's sacrifice;
2) When an unsaved person dies, it is ascertained that they are not saved and they are sent to Hell;
3) Following the Rapture of the Church, at which time the bodies of the righteous dead are resurrected and re-joined with their souls, which have been waiting in Heaven. Believers are judged for their WORKS, not their sins, and are given crowns of reward; some instead receive punishments for unacceptable behavior. The date of this judgement is unknown.
4) The righteous believers who are alive at the Rapture are also judged for their works in the same manner and at the same time. The date of this judgement is unknown.
5) At the end of the Jesus' Millenial Reign (roughly 1,000 years after His return), the souls of unbelievers will be reunited with their resurrected bodies and judged by Jesus. This is known as the Great White Throne Judgement. They will be judged guilty and thrown into the Lake of Fire.
I hope this helps. Peace.

Revelation 20:10-12 (King James Version)
10And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are, and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever.
11And I saw a great white throne, and him that sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away; and there was found no place for them.
12And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works.

It was supposed to have happened around 2000 years ago. Jesus talked of the Second Coming and his disciples asked him when it was going to happen. He said, before this generation has passed from this earth. (paraphrasing).
Matthew 16:28
Matthew 24:34
I guess Jesus F'd up!

I'm sorry but no one knows. And anyone who tells u he does is lying.
Be ever ready. No one knows the future but as long as we abide in the Lord, there's no need to worry about when judgment day would come

For the saved its when we go home in the rapture. We will be judged for our works. For the sinner its at the Great White Throne Judgement. Not sure when that is either.

Wasn't it back in 1997? Somewhere around August 25th, if I remember correctly.
