ADDITIONAL LESSON POINTS
Everlasting life is fellowship with God, that it begins in faith already in temporal life and that everlasting condemnation is final separation from God.
Those that believe in Christ do not need to fear Christ's second coming, for it is a day of joy and victory for His own.
On the Last Day all will be gathered before God’s judgement seat
