I do believe that the day will come when all of us will stand before God and give an account of our works, good or bad. For those who also believe this, do you wlyour own good works…despite your sin…to earn your salvation diminishes, in any way, the work that Jesus did for you on the cross…?
I’ve heard that most of My life. Yet, Paul says that there is NO CONDEMNATION to those who are in Christ,
If there is no condemnation there is no guilt. If there is no guilt how can there be judgement?
There is the concept that only the lost will be judged for their sin..... at the Great White Throne judgment. Members of the Body of Christ... if they are even in attendance, will only be observers.
Believers will appear at the Bema Seat judgment. There are those who hold that the believers will only be judged for the "quality" of their works.
See 1 Corinthians 3:10-15.
It would be hard to be judged for much if your sins are forgiven I figure. When you ask forgiveness and HE forgives you, doesnt HE say they are forgotten?
Ecc 10:2 The heart of the wise inclines to the right, but that of a fool to the left.
A Nation which leaves God behind is soon left behind.
"The Lord never asked anyone to be a tax collector, lowyer, or Redskins fan".
