Corinthians
5:1-10
For we know that if the earthly tent which is
our house is torn down, we have a building from God, a house not made
with hands, eternal in the heavens.
2 For indeed in this house we groan, longing to be clothed
with our dwelling from heaven,
3 inasmuch as we, having put it on, will not be found naked.
4 For indeed while we are in this tent, we groan, being burdened,
because we do not want to be unclothed but to be clothed, so that what
is mortal will be swallowed up by life.
5 Now He who prepared us for this very purpose is God, who gave to
us the Spirit as a pledge.
6 Therefore, being always of good courage, and knowing that while we
are at home in the body we are absent from the Lord—
7 for we walk by faith, not by sight—
8 we are of good courage, I say, and prefer rather to be absent from
the body and to be at home with the Lord.
9 Therefore we also have as our ambition, whether at home or absent,
to be pleasing to Him. 10 For we must all appear before the
judgment seat of Christ, so that each one may be recompensed for his
deeds in the body, according to what he has done, whether good or bad.

John 5:24-28
“Truly, truly, I say to you, he who hears My word, and believes Him
who sent Me, has eternal life, and does not come into judgment, but has
passed out of death into life.
25 “Truly, truly, I say to you, an hour is coming and now is, when
the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God, and those who hear will
live.
26 “For just as the Father has life in Himself, even so He gave to
the Son also to have life in Himself;
27 and He gave Him authority to execute judgment, because He is
the Son of Man.
28 “Do not marvel at this; for an hour is coming, in which all who
are in the tombs will hear His voice,
