Who are left to be judged after the old earth and the new heavem flee away? Not the anointed remnant of the 144,000, for these have been judged and sealed. Those still alive on earth after Armageddon must shorty thereafter die and receive their heavenly reward by resurrection. (1 Peter 4:17; Revelation 7:2-4) However, the millions of t he great crowd who have come out of the great tribulationb stand conspicuiculously "before the throne." These have already been counted righteous for survival because of their faith in Jesus' shed blood, but their judging must continue through the thousand years as Jesus keeps on guiding them to "fountains of waters of life." Then, having been restored to human perfection and thereafter tested, they will be declared righteous in the fullest sense. (Revelation 7:9, 10, 14, 17) Children who surivive the great tribulatiob and any children born to the great crowd during the Millennium will similarly need to be judged during the thousand years. - Compare GENESIS 1:28; 9:7; 1 CORINTHIANS 7:14.
