At the final judgment, all will be resurrected; those who have done good will be granted eternal life, while those who have done evil will face condemnation.
The final judgment is described by Jesus in John 5:29, where He clearly states that there will be a resurrection resulting in two distinct outcomes. Those who have done good will rise to a resurrection of life, indicating their acceptance and eternal fellowship with God. In contrast, those who have done evil will experience a resurrection of condemnation, reflecting their rejection of God's grace. This resonates with the wider biblical narrative about God's justice, where accountability for one's response to the Gospel is of utmost importance. The doctrine emphasizes the sovereign grace of God in choosing some for salvation while affirming the reality of judgment for the unrepentant.
