    The Judgement Seat of Christ
    Rediscover the amazing TRUTHS that surround the Judgement Seat of Christ – one of the great forgotten treasures of Scripture. It is a theme central to the doctrine of the New Testament authors and especially to Jesus Christ Himself. Yet it is often missing in modern preaching and teaching.

      This is a very complex issue, and we will start with what the Bible does not teach. Fate is usually thought of as a predetermined course of events beyond human control. A typical response to a belief in fate is resignation—if we can’t change destiny,

      At Last

      HAVE YOU EVER PLAYED A WORD ASSOCIATION game? Word association is an interesting way to see how someone categorizes and connects ideas, feelings, experiences, and information. So if I say a word, what is the first thought that comes to your mind? For instance, if I say dog you might think cat. If I say heart you may think love. If I say fur you might think coat.

      But what if I said judgment?

      What comes to your mind? Almost certainly you would associate negative thoughts with judgment. In fact, our modern world hates few ideas more than judgment. The one Bible verse that most unbelievers seem to know is, Judge not so you will not be judged (Matt. 7:1). Even many Christians now ignore—or even reject—the idea of judgment altogether.

      Judge not so you will

      not be judged, NKJV

      It is true that human judgments are flawed at best and corrupt at worst. And there is nothing more repulsive than chronic criticism and judgmentalism. But when it comes to God’s judgments, they are as wonderful and perfect as He is. That means we should not avoid the theme of God’s judgments. Rather, as true followers of His Son, we should understand and appreciate them.

      Whoever hears my

      word and believes

      him who sent me has

      eternal life. He does not

      come into judgment,

      but has passed from

      death to life, NIV

      One of the reasons for confusion around this topic is that, for many people, the subject of God’s judgment seems to contradict other doctrines they hold dear. For example, didn’t Jesus say, "Whoever hears my word and believes him who sent me has eternal life. He does not come into judgment, but has passed from death to life (John 5:24)? And yet Paul says explicitly, We must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ" (2 Cor. 5:10). Both statements are true without any contradictions because they are not referring to the same event, but to different judgments. In fact, Scripture describes a number of distinct judgments—past, present, and future.

      Even though Christians are exempt from the final judgment by the blood of Jesus, it is important for us to consider God’s judgments for two reasons. First, they reveal the profound mystery of His character. David declares, Your judgments are like a great deep (Ps. 36:6). They display the unfathomable fusion of righteousness and mercy
