He wasn’t looking for a serious answer. I try to always answer anyone’s serious question about the Bible. I have not only answered many of his, but I’ve provided an answer and scripture of why I believe whatever we were discussing. He doesn’t discuss……he answers in one or two “witty” lines that proves little. He depends on you to supply the evidence of your beliefs. IMHO!

Those who have accepted Jesus Christ as their Savior are in the Judgement reserved for only them. I have posted this several times in the past, but will again from one of my favorite sites, gotguestions.org.

The thief on the cross was saved by Jesus just before his death, which demonstrates that we can accept Jesus as our Savior right up until our death. So……we don’t know who all will be with us, we just know that we will……..Jesus Christ is the Son of God and died for our sins! 🙏🏻

What is the Judgment Seat of Christ?
Judgment Seat of Christ, Bema Seat of Christ

ANSWER

Romans 14:10–12 says, “For we will all stand before God’s judgment seat. . . . So then, each of us will give an account of himself to God” (ESV). Second Corinthians 5:10 tells us, “We must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, so that each of us may receive what is due us for the things done while in the body, whether good or bad.” In context, it is clear that both passages refer to Christians, not unbelievers. The judgment seat of Christ, therefore, involves believers giving an account of their lives to Christ.

The judgment seat of Christ does not determine salvation; that was determined by Christ’s sacrifice on our behalf (1 John 2:2) and our faith in Him (John 3:16). All of our sins are forgiven, and we will never be condemned for them (Romans 8:1). We should not look at the judgment seat of Christ as God judging our sins, but rather as God rewarding us for our lives. Yes, as the Bible says, we will have to give an account of ourselves. Part of this is surely answering for the sins we committed. However, that is not going to be the primary focus of the judgment seat of Christ.

At the judgment seat of Christ, believers are rewarded based on how faithfully they served Christ (1 Corinthians 9:4-27; 2 Timothy 2:5). Some of the things we might be judged on are how well we obeyed the Great Commission (Matthew 28:18-20), how victorious we were over sin (Romans 6:1-4), and how well we controlled our tongues (James 3:1-9). The Bible speaks of believers receiving crowns for different things based on how faithfully they served Christ (1 Corinthians 9:4-27; 2 Timothy 2:5). The various crowns are described in 2 Timothy 2:5, 2 Timothy 4:8, James 1:12, 1 Peter 5:4, and Revelation 2:10. James 1:12 is a good summary of how we should think about the judgment seat of Christ: “Blessed is the man who perseveres under trial, because when he has stood the test, he will receive the crown of life that God has promised to those who love him.”

Oh my goodness, Morgan…..when have you ever thought outside of your bubble? Of all people on this forum, she is one of the few who consistently thinks outside the “bubble!” She carries water for no political party or no person! You really don’t pay attention to other’s comments, do you!

Your ability to see the big picture, this pretentious wisdom you’re claiming, is as believable as you claiming to be a man! 🤯

Ah! I’m always hugging you! 😊🤜🤛

You said pretty much this same thing on another thread….just with so much more eloquence! There are many of us all across this wonderful country that believe as we do. Thank God!

The woke crowd has pushed us too far and the proof is the, Let’s go Brandon, chant all across the 🇺🇸 USA! I think the e******n next year will prove our determination! God willing and the creek don’t rise! 🙏🏻

Amen and amen! 😂😂😂😂

Mother’s carry their breast milk with them in public because they prefer not to feed them in public and for convenience…...not for their cute little husband to feed the baby just to be a part of the baby’s feeding. I’m sure he gets enough of that at home!

What does a 7 week old puppy have to do with a 7 week old baby. If your wife is a veterinarian she would understand that a 7 week old puppy compared to a 7 week old baby would be much older than the baby considering dog years to human! A puppy at that age is eating solid food and not dependent on milk! Duh! 🤷🏻‍♀️

Next point! If the milk is in a baggie how would the milk inside of this baggie be exposed to contamination in a pan at a winery! As long as there are no holes in the baggie it is okey dokey for the baby.…and if the milk is not cold, at room temperature, it may not even need warmed up! You haven’t been around many babies, have you? I’m on #8 great grandchildren….another baby girl due in March!

We threw the “oysters” in a bucket during the branding and then had them for supper! Chicken fried oysters and gravy with fried potatoes! Yum! Yum! 😋

I guess Fox forgot how many viewers they lost when they pulled this BS the last time!

As opposed to how “sane” China’s e******ns are! 😂

Xi for life….right CD!

You are right, “Pointing out the t***h should never offend; even if bluntly done” and yet you continually run from the t***h and proven facts that has been presented to you about the CCP and your leader Xi!

You have become the expert at poking jabs at America, Israel, Christians, and even God, but your inability to defend all the atrocities that are happening today in China and other countries that are controlled by evil leaders is evident for any who pay attention. You criticize Israel and claim they attack the innocent while ignoring the fact that Hamas has continually purposely attacked the innocent…….you ignore T***h!

Let me be clear…..you have the right to your opinion and you have the right to defend China and your preference to live under the control of the CCP, but you don’t have the right to your t***h when it is only your opinion and t***h is ignored.

America has made many mistakes, no one claims anything less! Today we are facing many problems and many of those problems are because we are headed towards Socialism! We can look at China and a leader that controls with fear and the horror that many of the minorities are living under today for the perfect example of where socialism ends and C*******m rules! No thanks, I’ll take America……it’s worth fighting for!

In a real world people have different opinions……..And all are not fighting the raging mental disease that is extremely detrimental to one’s mental stability! TDS! But…….Hang on, they’re working on a v*****e! 😎

C***D did one thing good! It opened the eyes of many parents and what and how their children were being taught in school. We have two grandkids that are teachers, so we know the struggle of some of the conservative teachers and what they face under this liberal agenda. More and more parents are standing up for their kids!

Orientals have always concentrated on education, but what good is the education of young Chinese if their lives are controlled by the CCP……as long as they do as they are told, all is well!

And they read and write only what they are allowed…….but! That seems to be the agenda of the liberals!

Do we give in or do we fight for our kids, our country? And NO, all you snowflakes…….I’m not advocating Civil War, at least, not yet! 😎

And you’re here to defend them……all the way from China! I don’t think all those folks in China that have been murdered, tortured, forced a******ns, forced sterilization, organ harvesting, re-educated, forced into labor camps, forced to worship their leader, education controlled by the CCP, and the list goes on! I don’t think any of these found it enjoyable! This is what happens when any country looses all control to a powerful elite ruled by fear and “total” control. So many examples! Some take their freedoms a little at a time, especially their ability to defend themselves!

The “woke” here in America are leading us closer and closer to losing our freedoms that men and women have fought and have died for since the beginning of this country. We are marching toward the culmination of the long planned for One World Government! Will America fall, will we survive to fight until the end? Some believe that America can be found in Revelation, some don’t! I personally don’t know!

Propaganda has bombarded our country from those who want to destroy America and our way of life. The internet is just one way that is being used. They want to destroy us from within without ever firing a shot! We are a superpower that is standing in their way!

However, have no doubt……..These words will not be forgotten and will continue to be fought for by the true Patriots!

“We hold these t***hs to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.”

We all have access to a dictionary…….Right, CD! 😉

As far as telling a convincing story….…..well, you got it or you don’t got it! 🤷🏻‍♀️
