What happens to a lost person who rejects Christ's atonement and turns back in unbelief?
A lost person who rejects Christ's atonement and turns back in unbelief must give an account for everything done in the body. Every unbeliever from Cain to the last will stand before the great white throne, where the Lord Jesus Christ judges the lost; believers will not be there.
Les explains that although all the world's sins are forgiven and atoned for by the blood of Christ, the lost person is not thereby exempt from giving an account. If he spurns that atonement and in unbelief turns his back on it, then he will have to give an account for everything he does in the body as a lost person. Revelation 20 shows that every unbeliever from Cain until the last one at the end of the ages will come before the great white throne. This judgment is only for the lost, only for unbelievers, not for Christians. John says he saw the dead, small and great, stand before God, and the God there will be the Lord Jesus Christ, the Judge.
