The Judgment Seat of Christ

The New Testament is explicit that a day is coming when believers “must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ” (2 Cor. 5:10). There could hardly be a more sobering reality. Indeed, Daniel Webster, a famous 19th-century American statesman and orator, once said, “The greatest thought that has ever entered my mind is that I will have to stand before a holy God and give an account of my

    Luke 17:10
    So likewise after you have done that which are commanded of you, say, “We are unworthy servants, we have done that which was our duty to do.”

    Of course, our God is generous beyond imagination and takes delight in rewarding those who choose to honor and serve Him wholeheartedly. We can always take comfort in knowing we have a good Master who regards us as His friends.

Multitudes of sincere, yet misinformed Christians are forfeiting precious opportunity to use the gifting and the calling the Holy Spirit has equipped them to become Jesus’ servants. This is a false humility at best, and at worst, a derelict contrivance by the enemy of our souls to weaken and diminish the Body of Christ.

    One more thought occurs to me, Doug………..just as earthly ‘mortal’parents delight in bestowing gifts upon their children at Christmas, birthdays, etc., why should we limit our loving savior/creator the JOY of blessing and rewarding his faithful sons and daughters????? duhhh !
