Introduction
"For we must all appear before the judgement seat of Christ; that every one may receive the things done in his body, according to that he has done, whether it be good or bad" (2 Corinthians 5:10)".
The Greek word for "Judgement Seat " means "raised platform."
At the Judgement Seat Of Christ, we will be rewarded for our works in earth.
So as a Christian one should prepare his life doing the work of God for when he comes he is going to reward us according on how each one of us has worked
A. SALVATION VERSUS REWARDS FOR CHRISTIANS
There is a vast difference between the doctrine of salvation for the lost, and the doctrine of rewards for the saved.
1. Salvation is free
Salvation is a gift from God got through his Son Jesus Christ. And one gets salvation by believing in him.
2. Rewards are earned
Rewards are according to the works of the believer ( Mathew 16:17).
Kinds of rewards given are:
a. Rewarded For Labor.
b. God's fellow workers.
c. Build on Christ.
d. Choice of Materials
Lord Jesus has given every Christian a job to do. If we ignore his commandments, we will be sad and frighten when we stand before him at judgement! Note John's warning:
"Little children, abide in him so that when he shall appear you will not be ashamed at his coming" (1 John 2:28).
MAY GOD BLESS YOU
