THE JUDGMENT SEAT OF CHRIST

For we must all appear before the Judgment Seat of Christ,

That each one may receive what is due him

For the things done while in the body, whether good or bad.

(2 Corinthians 5:10)

Now we know that if the earthly Tent we live in id Destroyed,

We have a building from God, an Eternal House in Heaven,

Not built with human hands.

Meanwhile we Groan, longing to be clothed with our Heavenly dwelling,

Because when we are clothed, we will not be found Naked.

For while we are in this Tent, we Groan and are burdened,

Because we do not wish to be unclothed

But to be clothed with our Heavenly Dwelling,

SO THAT WHAT IS Mortal MAY BE SWALLOWED UP BY LIFE.

Now it is God Who has made us for this very purpose

And has given us the SPIRIT as a Deposit,

guaranteeing what is to come.

Therefore we are always confident

And know that as long as we are a Home in the body

We are away from the Lord.

So we make it our GOAL to please Him,

Whether we are at Home in the body or away from it.

For we must all appear before the Judgment Seat of Christ,

That each one may receive what is due him

For the things done while in the body, whether good or bad.

Since, then, we know what it is to Fear the Lord,

We try to persuade men.

What we are is Plain to God, and I hope it is Plain to your conscience.

We are not trying to commend ourselves to you again,

But are giving you and opportunity to take pride in us,

So that you can answer those who take Pride in what is seen

Rather than in what is in the heart.

If we are out of our mind, it is for you.

FOR CHRIST'S LOVE COMPELS US,

Because we are convinced that one died for ALL,

And therefore ALL died.

And He died for ALL,

That those who live should no longer live for themselves

But for Him Who died for them and was Raised Again.

So from now on we regard NO ONE from a worldly point of view.

Though we once regarded Christ in this way, we do so no longer.

THEREFORE IF ANYONE IS IN CHRIST HE IS A NEW CREATION;

The old has gone, the New has come!

ALL THIS IS FROM GOD, Who Reconciled us to Himself through Christ

And gave us the Ministry of Reconciliation:

That God was Reconciling the World to Himself IN CHRIST,

Not counting men's sins against them.

And He has committed to us THE MESSAGE OF RECONCILIATION.

We are therefore CHRIST'S AMBASSADORS,

As though God were making His appeal through us.

WE IMPLORE YOU ON CHRIST'S BEHALF:

BE RECONCILED TO GOD.

God made Him Who had NO SIN to be Sin for us,

So that IN HIM we might become the Righteousness of God.

(2 Corinthians 5)

Just as man is Destined to Die ONCE, and after that to face Judgment,

So Christ was Sacrificed ONCE to take away the Sins of many people;

And He will Appear A SECOND TIME,

Not to Bear Sin, but TO BRING SALVATION

TO THOSE WHO ARE WAITING FOR HIM.

(Hebrews 9:27, 28)

Today, the hand of Christ Jesus is Extended to every living person.

Today, is the Day of Salvation. (2 Corinthians 6:2)

Tomorrow could be TOO LATE!

Be always on the Watch,

And pray that you will be able to Escape All that is about to happen,

And that you may be able TO STAND before the Son of Man. (Luke 21:36)

Today, the World is raging against God, rushing toward Oblivion. (Psalm 2)

This World in it's present form is passing away. (1 Corinthians 7:31)

America is being ground to powder because of her SIN against God.

Save yourself from this Corrupt Generation! (Acts 2:40)

As God has written, so shall it be! Hallelujah! Maranatha!

Father, Your Kingdom come, Your will be done, on earth as in Heaven!
