Pre-advent judgment

In Christian theology, the pre-advent judgment is a belief that the Last Judgment will occur before the Second Coming (or "Advent") of Jesus.

[1] This concept stands in contrast to the much more common Christian belief that the Last Judgment will occur at or after the second coming.

[1] The Seventh-day Adventist Church believes that a pre-advent judgment started in the year 1844,[2] known as the investigative judgment.

It will conclude at the "close of probation" prior to the return of Jesus.
