but judge righteous judgment

Here, lets expound on this .     Notice it says RIGHTEOUS judgment.   carnal judgment is NOT RIGHTEOUS its sensual and it wont correct the errors, it will justify them instead. 

YEAH ,  that sums it up.

The difference between carnal judgement and righteous spiritual judgment

IS SO CLEAR.       When the carnal sees one in sin , at BEST it says OH GOD IS LOVE , he understands, hey DONT JUDGE

at worst it calls the sin LOVE .   either way ITS DUPED .   true judgment will both warn and show the way OUT .   PEROID .

This scenario is completely hypothetical, so I don't want to see people changing it for whatever reason. Answer it as it is.

 

EX: John(non-believer/not saved) has always had a good heart from birth. He was always obedient to his parents, helped others, and rarely sinned. From age 19-23, John went out into the world and was deceived into great sin. But he realized it was no good for him. 

So John went out, got a Bible and read the whole book. He decided to give his life to Jesus, he took every step he could to be saved. To receive the Holy Spirit and to seek the kingdom. At the point where he accepted Jesus and began reading the Bible, his life changed. BUT his obedience didn't come from the Spirit, it came from his good heart/intentions(he still wasn't saved).

Every day John read the Bible and did Gods will to the best of his ability. But he was worried he was not saved, so he would continue genuinely asking Jesus into his life. He believed Jesus was his savior, he had faith, he did everything the scriptures taught to be saved. He did not doubt his faith, he knew his faith was strong, he was genuine. (He was not possessed or anything, he was a normal person).

For the last 60 years of his life, John thought he was saved, but he was not. He thought because his life changed, he was saved. All his life, all he wanted to do was love God and go to heaven, so for 60 years he read scripture, prayed and obeyed Gods word. But again, he wasn't saved.

When he dies(not saved) and stands in the presence of God, will God reject him? 

 

Again, answer it how it is, assume every detail is 100% true. Don't make me reply to your comment with this sentence.

None of these quotes either: “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.”

The very premise of this story is wrong.........because there is no one good but God.........all our righteousness is filthy rags.  Nevertheless if someone is sincerely seeking the Lord and attempting to live pleasing to Him, He will answer because He has promised to.  Ask and you will receive, seek and you will find, knock and the door will opened.  But only the Lord is judge of who is really sincere, who is really asking, seeking, knocking, as well who is willing to pay the price for following Him.  There is an example in scripture of someone named Cornelius, a Roman centurion, who feared God and gave alms to the poor, but did not yet know the Lord....and the Lord responded by sending Peter to bring him the gospel......Acts 10.

The answer to this 'hypothetical' scenario is only God knows. It isn't a true, false or I don't know answer. God alone knows the heart. Jeremiah 17:10. So regardless of the intent of this post the correct answer has been given and we all will stand before God and Will be judged based upon whether we trusted in Christ as our Savior or not. 

In the end I can't answer for someone else whether they are saved or not. I need to make sure that I myself have put my faith in Christ and then go out and tell others do what Christ has done for me.
