Knowing that whatever good we do, we will receive the same again from the Lord, whether we are slaves or free ( Ephesians 6:8).Īt some time in the future, the Lord will come back for those who have believed upon Him. Surely You will reward each person according to what He has done ( Psalm 62:12).įor the Son of Man is going to come in His Father's glory with His angels, and then He will reward each person according to what He has done ( Matthew 16:27). The Bible says that God will reward the actions of believers.Īnd that you, O Lord, are loving.
They will have a separate time of judgment and reward. It does not include the Old Testament believers. These are people who have trusted Christ as Savior from the Day of Pentecost, until the coming of Christ for His church. The participants in the judgment seat of Christ are members of the New Testament church. What will happen at this judgment seat? Who will be judged? The Scriptures have the following to say.
Why do you pass judgment on your brother or sister? Or you, why do you despise your brother or sister? For we will all stand before the judgment seat of God ( Romans 14:10). Paul wrote.įor we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, that each one may receive the things done in the body, according to what we have done whether good or bad ( 2 Corinthians 5:10).Īll believers will stand before God and be individually judged. It is known as the judgment seat of Christ, or the judgment seat of God. The Bible speaks of a special judgment that God will hold for believers only. The Bible says unbelievers will be judged in the first sense - condemnation, while believers will be judged in the other sense - rewards. One sense in condemnation, while the other sense is the giving out of rewards. Greek, like English, uses the word "judge" in two senses.
