    It seems both Matthew 7 and Luke 13 speak to the same event. Luke 16 speaks of death and the consequences of how we live it. So if Matthew 7:21-23 is not after death, where did He tell them to depart from His presence?

    Please expound this. I’m not sure what you’re meaning here. TIA

    I agree. I'm saying that we will experience the final judgement immediately after we die. In the timeless Kingdom of Heaven this is the same moment that someone who died in 65 B.C. or in 2075 AD will be judged.

    There will be only one judgment as described in Mat. 24.
