Judgment Seat of Christ

How Can Perfect People Feel Regret? 

April 1, 2021 by Shawn Lazar in Blog - Bema, Judgment Seat of Christ, misthology, rewards, Tony Evans
The very concept of gaining eternal rewards in Jesus’ future kingdom is foreign to many Christians, but it’s certainly not foreign to the Bible, which repeatedly teaches about the importance of rewards. “[L]ay up for yourselves treasures in heaven,” Jesus urged (Matt 6:20). And Hebrews says God “is a rewarder of those who diligently seek

George Muller’s Holy Confidence

September 22, 2020 by Shawn Lazar in Blog - Bema, Confidence, George Muller, Judgment Seat of Christ, rewards
If you are a grace believer—unlike many people in Christendom—you are not worried about being judged for your eternal salvation because Jesus settled that issue the moment you believed in Him for eternal salvation: “Most assuredly, I say to you, he who hears My word and believes in Him who sent Me has everlasting life,

On Feb 26, Bob posted a blog (see here) about the fact that Tom Rodgers of Grace Church in Wichita Falls, TX, taught on the Judgment Seat of Christ just a few days before he died. Bob spoke of the many years that Tom, along with Reggie Coe, had pastored the church, and that Tom

Pastor Tom Rodgers Taught on the Bema Days Before He Died

February 26, 2019 by Bob Wilkin in Blog - Eternal Rewards, Grace Church of Wichita Falls, Judgment Seat of Christ, Revelation 14:13, Tom Rodgers, TX
A reader sent me an email about the passing of Pastor Tom Rodgers last year. Here is what he wrote: I believe you knew Tom Rodgers over in Wichita Falls, and I imagine you were aware of his passing recently. He and Reggie Coe were our pastors back in the early 1980s when we were

Negative Consequences at the Bema?

June 14, 2018 by Bob Wilkin in Blog - Bema, Eternal Rewards, Judgment, Judgment Seat of Christ
I received the following email: I understand the deadly consequences of unrepentant sin in this life. But I don’t get the idea of negative consequences at the Judgment Seat of Christ. What deadly consequences would there be? In 1 Cor 3:10-15 it sounds like any wood, hay, or stubble works will simply be burned up.

The Place of Failure

November 28, 2016 by Bob Wilkin in Blog - Approval, Failure, Judgment Seat of Christ
by Bob Wilkin Over the years I’ve had lots of failures in life. I know we all have. But I’m more acutely aware of my own failures than I am of those of others. Have you ever felt like giving up on your job, your ministry in your church, or on some major responsibility you

Alexander Patterson on The Judgment Seat of Christ

November 8, 2016 by GES Webmaster in Blog - Judgment Seat of Christ, Old Authors, rewards, Stewardship
Alexander Patterson waves together many strands of truth when he writes about the Judgment Seat of Christ, “Not a service done for Christ loses its reward. ‘For his sake’ is the criterion by which everything is to be judged. The sacrifices of the believer are then shown and rewarded. It is then the Beatitudes are

To Whom Much Is Given, Luke 12:47-48

August 10, 2016 by GES Webmaster in Blog - Judgment Seat of Christ, Salvation, theology
by Ken Yates To me, one of the most interesting verses in the Gospels is a statement by Jesus in Luke 12:47-48. Jesus gives a parable about who is a wise servant of the master and who is an evil servant of that same master. In the parable, the Lord says that His servants will
