terryt:

This indicates to me that there are some saved at this judgment. It could possibly be those who had passed through the millenium and during the millennium had accepted the Lord.

This is where we get the idea that those who are saved will be observers of this judgment. I do not want to use the word "spectator" because that connotes sport, as if we would be watching this for enjoyment. There will be no pleasure when God casts those for whom He died into the Lake of Fire forever.

But I do believe that we will be there at the Great White Throne, not to be judged, but to watch the judgment.

terryt,

Can you elaborate on this?

"Those who had died under the law were judged under the law and became the "first fruits"."

Are you saying that the OT saints were justified and sanctified by observing the law under the old covenant?
