Second Corinthians 5:10 says that evaluation concerns what we Christians did “in” ( not “by”) our body.

It is not about how often we performed the sins of the flesh either. The idea here is not how busy we were in doing religious works.

For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ that every one may receive the things done in his body, according to that he hath done, whether it be good or bad.” Romans 14:10-12 uses the term “the judgment seat of Christ” to describe this time when “every one of us shall give account of himself to God.” Second Corinthians chapter 5 adds further details: “ Wherefore we labour, that, whether present or absent, we may be accepted of him. The above verses are one of three primary Bible passages that deal with this subject. After the Rapture, God the Son (Jesus Christ) will review the service of all members of the Church the Body of Christ at a special event in Heaven. What is this “fire?” Why is it needed? “For what saith the Scriptures?”īefore addressing the fire aspect, a few cursory remarks must be made. If any man’s work shall be burned, he shall suffer loss: but he himself shall be saved yet so as by fire.” If any man’s work abide which he hath built thereupon, he shall receive a reward. Now if any man build upon this foundation gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, stubble Every man’s work shall be made manifest: for the day shall declare it, because it shall be revealed by fire and the fire shall try every man’s work of what sort it is. For other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ. But let every man take heed how he buildeth thereupon. According to the grace of God which is given unto me, as a wise masterbuilder, I have laid the foundation, and another buildeth thereon. Turning to 1 Corinthians chapter 3, we read: “ For we are labourers together with God: ye are God’s husbandry, ye are God’s building. WHAT IS THE FIRE AT THE JUDGMENT SEAT OF CHRIST?
