1) (John 5:29) ...those who did good things to a resurrection of life, and those who practiced vile things to a resurrection of judgment.

1/10 p. 11 - Will the judgment of resurrected ones be based on
what they did before their death? No. The Bible
teaches that “he who has died has been acquitted from his sin.”
(Romans 6:7) So, like those who survive the end of this
system, those resurrected to life on earth will be judged “according
to their deeds” during Judgment Day. [the

rs p. 338 par. 1 - Both those who formerly did good things and those who formerly practiced bad things will be “judged individually according to their deeds.” What deeds? If we were to take the view that people were going to be condemned on the basis of deeds in their past life, that would be inconsistent with Romans 6:7.
