Is the investigative judgment actually taught in the Bible, or is it something invented? Jason Thomas takes on that exact question directly, working from Daniel 7, Revelation 14, and 1 Corinthians 4 to show that Paul himself expected to be investigatively judged — using a Greek word that means to scrutinize or examine before rendering a verdict.
Jason Thomas connects the judgment scene in Daniel 7 to the sanctuary's Day of Atonement, explains why the 70-week prophecy of Daniel 9 (which clearly points to the Messiah) is tied to the larger 2,300-day prophecy that lands on 1844, and shows how this judgment work is really about blotting out sin — the same thing Scripture calls justification. Along the way, he answers the most common objections people raise: that judgment isn't part of the gospel, that the righteous aren't judged, and that the investigative judgment isn't biblical at all, closing with an appeal to be found among those Revelation describes as receiving judgment in their favor.
