John MacArthur:

The Judgment Seat of Christ for Believers

What is the purpose of the Judgement Seat of Christ

Abolishing Death: The Ultimate Triumph

“In this farewell there’s no blood,
There’s no alibi.
‘Cause I’ve drawn regret from the truth
Of a thousand lies.
So let mercy come and wash away…
What I’ve done.”

So begins Linkin Park’s “What I’ve Done.” That’s one way you could view the Judgment Seat of Christ, and perhaps the unfaithful or disobedient Christian would do well to consider these words  as they may very accurately reflect his attitude on that day. However, I would like to add that there’s a very different view one could take if he continues in faith, nothing wavering, and if he lives a life that is obedient to the Master’s call.

I hope this will help open doors for those interested in the subject. The most serious and deadly practical aspect of this study is what success and failure mean for the believer in the future, a very, very real future that we are only moments away from at any given moment. Christ could come back, and you and I would stand before the Judge of all the Earth. Who will be judged at this event, what will this judgment be based on, and what will the results be?

The Full Sermon may have some Elements of The Bema Seat that is Only For Believers tied in with The Great White Throne Judgment that is for Unbeliever’s – in so far as The Word may not be Rightly Divided. – It’s a good Sermon though 🙂
