Rosie:

As soon as we die, our soul immediately goes to either Heaven or Hell.

Since you are saved, you will go to Heaven.

You ask : "...when will we be judged...". Who are you referring to when you say "we"?

Because everyone will be judged, whether saved or unsaved, but there will be 2 different judgments, one for the saved, one for the unsaved, and they occur at different times, and with different results....

If you are referring to believers(saved), we will appear before the Judgment Seat of Christ, to receive our rewards when Christ returns with the saints to rapture the believers, which I think, (according to Matthew 24 & 1 Thessalonians 4:13-17 & other verses), will be immediately after the tribulation but just BEFORE God pours out His wrath.

"Now he that planteth and he that watereth are one: and every man shall receive his own reward according to his own labour.

For we are labourers together with God: ye are God's husbandry, ye are God's building.

According to the grace of God which is given unto me, as a wise masterbuilder, I have laid the foundation, and another buildeth thereon. But let every man take heed how he buildeth thereupon.

For other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ.

Now if any man build upon this foundation gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, stubble;

Every man's work shall be made manifest: for the day shall declare it, because it shall be revealed by fire; and the fire shall try every man's work of what sort it is.

If any man's work abide which he hath built thereupon, he shall receive a reward." ....1 Corinthians 5:8-14

The passage above is speaking on the rewards given during the Judgment Seat of Christ. Not sins *Jesus paid for our sins, past, present & future on the Cross*, just our works we've done , and the ones that glorify God, like getting people saved, suffering persecution for His sake, etc., will be rewarded. All the ones that didn't further His Kingdom, like watching the Superbowl, are likened to wood, hay & stubble, and will burn up (no reward for those things).

"For we know that if our earthly house of this tabernacle were dissolved, we have a building of God, an house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens.

For in this we groan, earnestly desiring to be clothed upon with our house which is from heaven:

If so be that being clothed we shall not be found naked.

For we that are in this tabernacle do groan, being burdened: not for that we would be unclothed, but clothed upon, that mortality might be swallowed up of life.

Now he that hath wrought us for the selfsame thing is God, who also hath given unto us the earnest of the Spirit.

Therefore we are always confident, knowing that, whilst we are at home in the body, we are absent from the Lord:

(For we walk by faith, not by sight:)

We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord.

Wherefore we labour, that, whether present or absent, we may be accepted of him.

For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ; that every one may receive the things done in his body, according to that he hath done, whether it be good or bad.

Knowing therefore the terror of the Lord, we persuade men; but we are made manifest unto God; and I trust also are made manifest in your consciences.

For we commend not ourselves again unto you, but give you occasion to glory on our behalf, that ye may have somewhat to answer them which glory in appearance, and not in heart.

For whether we be beside ourselves, it is to God: or whether we be sober, it is for your cause.".......2 Corinthians 5:1-13

Now, the Judgment at the Great White Throne of God is for the unsaved ONLY.

That is after the Millenial Reign , and since they are the unsaved, they will be judged by their works, and since they didn't believe on Christ during their life, they are all judged guilty and will be thrown into the Lake of Fire.

That is tragic, and why we must win souls to the Lord, so they can hear (& hopefully, believe) the Gospel of Jesus Christ & be saved.
