Some texts to think about:
1Jo 1:9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
Psa 103:10-13 He hath not dealt with us after our sins; nor rewarded us according to our iniquities. (11) For as the heaven is high above the earth, so great is his mercy toward them that fear him. (12) As far as the east is from the west, so far hath he removed our transgressions from us. (13) Like as a father pitieth his children, so the LORD pitieth them that fear him.
Isa 43:25 I, even I, am he that blotteth out thy transgressions for mine own sake, and will not remember thy sins.
Jer 31:34 And they shall teach no more every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know the LORD: for they shall all know me, from the least of them unto the greatest of them, saith the LORD: for I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more.
Jer 50:20 In those days, and in that time, saith the LORD, the iniquity of Israel shall be sought for, and there shall be none; and the sins of Judah, and they shall not be found: for I will pardon them whom I reserve.
Lastly these:
Isa 64:6 But we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousnesses are as filthy rags; and we all do fade as a leaf; and our iniquities, like the wind, have taken us away.
Rom 3:21-25 But now the righteousness of God without the law is manifested, being witnessed by the law and the prophets; (22) Even the righteousness of God which is by faith of Jesus Christ unto all and upon all them that believe: for there is no difference: (23) For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; (24) Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus: (25) Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God;
If God has promised to forgive our sins, and remember them no more, and because our righteousness is like filthy rags, thus we are covered by the righteousness of Christ, what is there to review in the pre-advent judgment?

Greetings,
The last call commenced when the apostles turned to the Gentiles, and is now being given to “every nation, and kindred, and tongue, and people.” This call brings in many, both “bad and good.” So there are many false professors of religion. Matt. 7:21-23. But there must be at some time a separation, for none can enter in to the marriage save those who have on the wedding garment—righteousness. This is done in the Investigative Judgment. The record of each professor’s life is examined to see who is worthy to be taken into the kingdom when Christ comes. Thus the king comes in to see the guests. This part of the parable corresponds to the parable in Matt. 13:47-50.
