Will the Bride Go Through the Great White Throne Judgement and Be Judged?
1) Direct answer
No. The Bride will not stand at the Great White Throne to be judged. She has already passed from judgment into life and will be with Christ in that hour.
2) Scriptural explanation
- John 5:24: “He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life.”
- Romans 8:1: “There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus.”
- Revelation 20:6: Those in the first resurrection “shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with him a thousand years,” and “on such the second death hath no power.”
- Revelation 20:11-15 shows the Great White Throne after the thousand years, where the dead are judged.
- 1 Corinthians 6:2-3: “Do ye not know that the saints shall judge the world? … we shall judge angels.”
- Revelation 3:21: The overcomer sits with Him in His throne.
3) Simple clarifying logic
Now notice, the White Throne comes after the Millennium. By then the Bride has already been caught up, united to the Bridegroom, and has reigned with Him a thousand years. The Scripture says the saints will judge the world, not be judged with the world. The Bride’s sins were judged at Calvary; she stands justified. She may appear at the judgment seat of Christ for reward and placement (2 Corinthians 5:10; 1 Corinthians 3:13-15), but not for condemnation at the Great White Throne.
4) Reinforcing statement
It’s not the Bride on trial there; it’s the rejected Word judging the unbelieving. The Bride is with the Judge.

An Exposition Of The Seven Church Ages
CAB 8:E-86
"I will keep thee from the hour of temptation, which shall come upon all the world, to try them that dwell upon the earth." This verse is not a declaration that the true church will go into and through the tribulation. If it meant that it would have said that. But it said, "I will keep thee from the hour of temptation." This temptation is exactly like the temptation in Eden. It will be a very inviting proposition held up in direct opposition to God's commanded Word, and yet from the standpoint of human reasoning it...

...nity. See it swung right back to the first day again, see. Eternity's like a ring; you can't find no corner to it; you can't find no stopping place in a perfect circle. You go on and on. I don't care how far you go, you're still going. You start going around like this; go through the floor; go through the earth; go beyond the earth; you are still going [Gap in the audio] ... was created down here a perverted (not created) by Satan, will drop out when the great golden bell rings and a trumpet sounds.

How striking, now! He takes the place where we are to dwell in through the same process. Now He's called the church through justification; called it through sanctification; then filled it with the Holy Ghost and fire, and He took it through a process that He Himself, the Holy Spirit Himself, the Son of God, could dwell in the human heart. Now it has to go through that before He can come into it. Notice, He done the world (where that bride is going to live in) the same way---his same plan of salvation.

And there that bride's looking to the coming of the Lord Jesus, with that secret, secret coming of Christ shall come and catch away his bride in the night. Like a book I read of Romeo and Juliet one time, how he come with a ladder and got his bride out among them. That's what ... Jesus will come some day and looking for that. He's not looking to his creeds, but looking to Christ, waiting for Him to come, with his heart centered. They come blood relation like Isaac and Rebekah---own blood relation. That's what we ha...

Watch now. The original Word, she has to repent to go back there. So her daughters has been asked ... to be forced... They will be judged and throwed into the same bed and killed with her. They've been asked to turn back to the original Word, go back to the apostolic doctrine. But they're so tied down with their creeds and things, they won't do it. They only make fun of it. Then what do they do? They finally form up in the image unto the beast, another power (notice), and act to the Lamb's bride like she did in Rev...
