John Nevins Andrews in the late 1800's released this classic study on The Judgment, outlining its events and their order. This work covers the following points: "The "Investigative Judgment", "Examination of the Books", "God the Father the Judge", "Offices of Christ", "Messages to the World", "The Sanctuary in Heaven", "The Crowning of Christ", "The Executive Judgment", and "The Saints Sitting in Judgment". Andrews clearly explains and disproves many long-held misbeliefs about God's work to remove sin from His people. His greatest desire was to explain Christian beliefs from the scriptures in a logical and easily understandable manner.
