2 Corinthians 5:9-10; Christ Our Judge
2 Corinthians 5:9-10 Wherefore we labour, that, whether present or absent, we may be accepted of him. 10 For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ; that every one may receive the things done in his body, according to that he hath done, whether it be good or bad.
A time will come when believers will be presented before Christ to receive a judgment on our life of service for Him. Christ will give the verdict. William MacDonald said well, “The judgment seat of Christ will reveal our lives of service for Christ exactly as they have been. Not only the amount of our service, but also its quality, and even the very motives that prompted it will be brought into review.”
