11:32); in his standing before God, and on the ground that the penalty for all sinpast, present, and future (Col. 2:13)has been borne by Christ as the perfect Substitute, the believer is not only placed beyond condemnation, but being in Christ is accepted in the perfection of Christ (1 Cor. While he was sitting on the judgment seat, his wife sent him a message, saying, Have nothing to do with that righteous Man; for last night I suffered greatly in a dream because of Him.. (a) The verb is what we call in Greek an aorist subjunctive, and with the basic meaning of this verb, the grammar points to a future act, but not a continuous state. Romans 3:19 Now we know that whatever the Law says, it speaks to those who are under the Law, that every mouth may be closed, and all the world may become accountable to God; Romans 5:12-15 Therefore, just as through one man sin entered into the world, and death through sin, and so death spread to all men, because all sinned 13 for until the Law sin was in the world; but sin is not imputed when there is no law. 11:31-32; Ps. 2:5). 22:3; 21:4; Isa. God is not only perfect holiness (whose holy character we can never attain to on our own or by our works of righteousness) but He is also perfect love and full of grace and mercy. 11 Even so consider yourselves to be dead to sin, but alive to God in Christ Jesus. All the graduates are there and excited about graduating, yet at the time of rewards, some sorrow might be experienced, but it is quickly overcome by the joy of the event. It is a family matter. Mary is a virgin in the accounts of Matthew (1:16; 18-25) and Luke (1:26-38). 1 Cor. 20:11 with 21:1). It is the word used of the crowns promised to believers for faithfulness in the Christian life. Though the death of Christ does not obliterate the presence of the sin nature and though it is still a powerful enemy (Rom. Dan. (1) A Thanksgiving Dinner. After which God selected him to lead his people out of slavery. English strikes a proper balance on this subject. Rom. 1:18; Revelation 6:16-17; 11:18; 14:7, 10, 19; 15:4, 7; 16:1, 7, 19; 19:1-2. 1:15). But if we judged ourselves rightly, we would not be judged. We are all sinners. 9:24-25). Such would be inconsistent with the finished work of Christ on the Cross because He totally paid the penalty for our sins. 7:25; Rev. Since the church is gone, caught up to be with the Lord (1 Thess. As the victorious Grecian athlete appeared before the Bema to receive his perishable award, so the Christian will appear before Christs Bema to receive his imperishable award. Romans 6:4-11 Therefore we have been buried with Him through baptism into death, in order that as Christ was raised from the dead through the glory of the Father, so we too might walk in newness of life. Why? This was the victors crown, the wreath given to the victorious athlete before the judge at the Bema. But this sorrow must be somewhat relative because even for the finest of Christians there will be some things worthy of unceasing remorse in the light of Gods unapproachable holiness. 2:5). When they enjoyed each other and the fruit trees and blessings of the garden, they acted in their self-interest but they did so in dependence on and in obedience to the Lord. 3:1-5; 5:5-15; Jer. It is an awesome and solemn scene and one which should cause everyone to stop and think about the eternal implications of this future event. The Lords return and what this means not only to the world but to us individually is a very prominent subject of the New Testament. Yet Ryries Notes Say Otherwise. 6:1; 9:14), of unfruitful deeds (Eph. Key Scriptures: Isaiah 24:1; Joel 1:15; Zeph. 1:13), that all have sinned and come short of Gods glory (Rom. As a result, a number of things occurred: (1) they were making a mockery of the significance and meaning of the Lords supper (11:27); (2) they were experiencing personal discipline by the Lord which existed in three conditions, evidently progressively so (11:30, 32); and though not mentioned here, (3) they were producing wood, hay, and stubblethey were losing rewards (1 Cor. Rev. Not only did Christ die for our sin as the Lamb of God (John 1:29), but He died to break the reign of sin in the lives of those who put their trust in Him as their Savior. Therefore do not pronounce but a terrifying expectation of judgment and the fury of a fire which will consume the adversaries. But when he saw many of the Pharisees and Sadducees coming for baptism, he said to them, You brood of vipers, who warned you to flee from the wrath to come? At a Thanksgiving dinner, each person eats a different amount, but each is satisfied. 1 Cor. For if by the transgression of the one the many died, much more did the grace of God and the gift by the grace of the one Man, Jesus Christ, abound to the many. (13) It is a time of global and universal war, human and angelic (Rev. 11:28f; cf. This in no way suggests a permanent condition. 1:10; Rev. The Tribulation will witness Satans wrath and the persecutions of his man, the Beast (Rev. The Archangel* Gabriel is mentioned in This is evident from 1 Thessalonians 4:17 and Revelation 4:2 and 19:8. 1:15). Will believers experience shame, grief, remorse at the Bema? (1) Stephanos. They were showing favoritism and hurting other believers rather than showing love and concern as it should be among believers in Christ. 24:17). But he also shows us that the same applies to the good person and moral person as well as the religious person (Rom. 14:12-14; Ezek. God cannot exact payment for sins twice since payment has been fully and forever paid. They are described in terms of generalities. 24:27-30). How many times is the word judgment mentioned in the Bible? 1 Cor. 9:1f; 13:2-3, 11f; Dan. However, this is not the picture that the New Testament gives of heaven. Q. 1:4). The judgment of Genesis 3 included the loss of the perfect Edenic conditions and in its place, the curse of the earth with its often extreme weather conditions, disease, thorns, and the warfare with Satan and his hosts (cf. (12) It is a time of martyrdom of believers (Rev. 12:5-11). Self-centeredness or selfishness is preoccupation with self at the expense of others and Gods will in ones life. No weapon that is formed against you will prosper;And every tongue that accuses you in judgment you will condemn.This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord,And their vindication is from Me, declares the Lord. 28:13). So we read in Hebrews: Hebrews 12:4-11 You have not yet resisted to the point of shedding blood in your striving against sin; 5 and you have forgotten the exhortation which is addressed to you as sons, My son, do not regard lightly the discipline of the Lord, Nor faint when you are reproved by Him; 6 For those whom the Lord loves He disciplines, And He scourges every son whom He receives. 7 It is for discipline that you endure; God deals with you as with sons; for what son is there whom his father does not discipline? The Bible teaches us that God loves all people and wants to bring them into a harmonious relationship with Himself. 19:17-19; and Dan. Still others today see only the very tail end of the events of Revelation to be the outpouring of the judgment of God and assert that the rest of the events constitute only the wrath or wickedness of man. 1:30; Eph. For not even the Father judges anyone, but He has given all judgment to the Son. (1) Christs judgment for sin, dying in the place of the sinner, bearing his sin and judgment on the cross as the sinners substitute. John 3:18 He who believes in Him is not judged; he who does not believe has been judged already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. This last view I believe to be the one that is in accord with Scripture. But man is separated from God by the problem of Sin. In other words, God has removed Satan and his demons, the False Prophet and the Beast, and is about to judge the rest of the unbelieving dead. And not shrink away from Him in shame at His coming (presence). Please note several things here. 6:10-12; 1 Pet. It contrasts our crowns with the temporal and temporary treasure of this life. 19:12). Though some of them were not living as they should, looking ahead and seeing them in glory brought joy and would bring great rejoicing. 19:2, 5). 5:9f; 1 John 2:28; 1 Thess. This is further verified by the time periods of Revelation which divide the tribulation into two periods of three and one-half years (Rev. Whoever sheds mans blood,By man his blood shall be shed,For in the image of GodHe made man. This was the royal crown, the crown of a king. 5:15; Heb. (3) A time of trouble or distress (Daniel 12:1). John 3:16-18 For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish, but have eternal life. But (2) Scripture also uses it of a very special and future time of tribulation that is to come upon the whole earth (Matt. The rebels of unbelief must be removed so that only believing Israel will enter into the kingdom (cf. (5) It is a day of extreme lawlessness, sin, and demonic activity (Rev. 24:4-26). What becomes the issue for us today? In fact, the Greek word appears 146 times in the New Testament, but it is The judgment of God is also described in the Bible as a process, not strictly the rendering of a verdict or passing of a sentence. For example, Peter tells us that "the time has come for judgment to begin at the house of God" ( 1 Peter 4:17 1 Peter 4:17 For the time is come that judgment must begin at the house of God: and if it first begin at us, what shall the end be of them that obey not the gospel of God? 10 Lewis Sperry Chafer, Systematic Theology, Vol. For example, Moses lived forty years in Egypt and forty years in the desert. 10:1-4; Phil. 20:3-5), together with (4) the resurrection of Old Testament saints (Dan. 3:13-15: each mans work will become evident; for the day will show it, because it is to be revealed with fire; and the fire itself will test the quality of each mans work. 3:14-15). 13 And the sea gave up the dead which were in it, and death and Hades gave up the dead which were in them; and they were judged, every one of them according to their deeds. By my count (with the help of some BibleWorks magic), there are 1,944 verses in 20:10). As the victorious Grecian athlete appeared before the Bema to receive his perishable award, so the Christian will appear before Christs Bema to receive his imperishable award. The awesome fact is that salvation is through faith in Jesus Christ. 7 Trumpet Judgments Unnamed Books of Judgment. 3:9-14; 9:24-27). In view of his use of crown (stephanos, the victors wreath) in other places, and the fact believers will cast their crowns before the Lord (Rev. Behold, the days are coming when I will break your strength and the strength of your fathers house so that there will not be an old man in your house. 39:28). Unfortunately, this condition had continued because some of these believers had failed to examine their hearts and judge their sin by honest confession followed by a commitment to deal with it in the power of the Spirit (11:28, 31). Gods wrath against mans sin and rebellion will be withheld no longer. 10 For the death that He died, He died to sin, once for all; but the life that He lives, He lives to God. This is clear from the context and the analogy to the Greek athletic games. 4:10-11). Though katheudo was used of physical sleep and even death, it was also commonly used of spiritual apathy or carnal indifference to spiritual matters, and this is clearly the context of chapter 5. Abide in Him. Abide is a synonym for fellowship which is the subject of the book (1:3-7). 17); politically (Rev. Confession means we agree with God concerning our sin and want to get back under Gods control. 3:10; 6:10; 8:13; 11:10; 13:8, 14; 17:8 and Isa. While the following is not exhaustive, it demonstrates that sin in the life of a believer is not a small issue. WebThirty pieces of silver was the price for which Judas Iscariot betrayed Jesus, according to an account in the Gospel of Matthew 26:15 in the New Testament. As Amos 3:3 says, can two walk together unless they be agreed? Obviously the answer is no. 6:17; I Thess. At graduation there is some measure of disappointment and remorse that one did not do better and work harder. When we fail to deal with our sinful ways through honest confession, we grieve the Spirits person and quench His power in our lives. Soon, however, 144,000 will come to Christ from the nation of Israel and will evidently become the evangelists of the world who lead people to Christ from every tongue, tribe, and nation (Rev. Then in anticipation of His death on the cross, the Lord spoke of Satans judgment and doom in John 12:31; 16:11, and Luke 10:18-19. 32 But when we are judged, we are disciplined by the Lord in order that we may not be condemned along with the world. The text reads: Acts 24:15-16 having a hope in God, which these men cherish themselves, that there shall certainly be a resurrection of both the righteous and the wicked. Part of this removal occurs through the Tribulation judgments themselves (Rev. This is why earlier the Apostle called them fleshly (the Greek sarkikos, adapted to, controlled by the flesh) (3:3). This means we must each come to God the same wayas a sinner who recognizes his sinfulness, repudiates any form of human works for salvation, and relies totally on Christ alone by faith alone for our salvation. 12:15b). Compare also: 2 Corinthians 5:10 For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, that each one may be recompensed for his deeds in the body, according to what he has done, whether good or bad. 12:1-2; Matt. Evident is phaneros which means known, plain, visible, revealed as to it nature. The day refers to a day well known and refers to the day of the Bema after the rapture of the church. (1) All the passages dealing with the Bema or rewards are addressed to believers or pertain to believers of the church (Rom. The Rock! 3:13-15 each mans work will become evident; for the day will show it, because it is to be revealed with fire; and the fire itself will test the quality of each mans work. 5:10; cf. This latter realization will be the source of boundless joy. 9:27). 14 If any mans work which he has built upon it remains, he shall receive a reward. 8:18-22; Eph. Correct me, O Lord, but with justice;Not with Your anger, or You will bring me to nothing. It is great because it is the final judgment and puts an end to all judgment for all time. Paul teaches us that the varied forms of the awful sinfulness of man have their beginnings in the rejection of the revelation of God in creation. They teach us the basic cause of discipline is failure to examine and confess known sins because that hinders our fellowship with God. May the reality of this judgment cause us to carefully reflect on the serious consequences of this passage on a Christ-rejecting world. The verb used is komizo and means to carry off safe, to carry off as booty. In the middle voice as here, it meant to bear for oneself,16 or to receive back what is ones own.17 Compare Matthew 25:27 and Ephesians 6:8. It occurs 107 times in the Old Testament, but 93 times in the book of Ezekiel. 9:24-25). The visible return of Jesus Christ (Matt. Isaiah 44:22 I have wiped out your transgressions like a thick cloud, And your sins like a heavy mist. 18 He who believes in Him is not judged; he who does not believe has been judged already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. The Queen of the South will rise up with this generation at the judgment and will condemn it, because she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon; and behold, something greater than Solomon is here. 13:8-9). In August of 2001 he was diagnosed with lung cancer and on August 29th, 2002 he went home to be with the Lord. This is no more a punishment than when a student turns in a worthless assignment and receives an F or a D. His poor work results in a just grade or recompense. Further, the words awake or asleep of verse 10 refer to a spiritual or moral condition, not whether one is alive or dead when Christ returns as in 4:13-14. God gives us salvation. To his own master he stands or falls; and stand he will, for the Lord is able to make him stand. But, to stress that Christ is King of Kings, this word is also used of the many diadems the Lord will wear at His return (Rev. Ezek. Although Christians apparently will reflect on this earthly life with some regret, they will also realize what is ahead for them in the heavenly life. (2) It is part of the training process by which Gods children are brought into the experience of Gods holiness (Heb. We should not think of discipline as punishment. Is it only for rewards or their loss? Here each unbelievers eternal destiny is declared and determined with ample proof and reason. Scripture teaches that all sins, both confessed and unconfessed, have been forgiven and taken care of by the work of Christ on the Cross so the Christian will never face those sins again at the judgment. Though, in this passage the Apostle does not say he would receive a crown, this is suggested, if not here certainly in other passages. 17 Fritz Rienecker, Linguistic Key to the Greek New Testament, Cleon L. Rogers, Jr., editor, Zondervan, Grand Rapids, 1980, p. 468. Those judged are the dead, great and small, those who had no part in the first resurrection (Rev. 2:15). Titus 3:5-7: He saved us, not on the basis of deeds which we have done in righteousness, but according to His mercy, by the washing of regeneration and renewing by the Holy Spirit, 6 whom He poured out upon us richly through Jesus Christ our Savior, 7 so that being justified by His grace we might be made heirs according to the hope of eternal life. (2) Death, a reference to all those who were buried in graves in the ground, cremated, or destroyed in any other way on earth. 12:2; Isa. The resurrection program and the thus the reward of Old Testament saints occurs after the tribulation, after church age saints are already seen in heaven and rewarded and returning with the Lord to judge the earth (cf. (3) The Promise of Accolades or Commendations. Joy will indeed be the predominant emotion of life with the Lord; but I suspect that, when our works are made manifest at the tribunal, some grief will be mixed with the joy, and we shall know shame as we suffer loss. There are a number of passages that refer to the negative aspects of the Bema which need to be mentioned and explained. Is Divorce And Remarriage After Abuse, Neglect, Financial, Or Emotional Issues Okay? Any young man who loves baseball would probably be thrilled to be a bat boy in the World Series, but he would not be jealous or resentful because he was not one of the stars of the game. Romans 8:1 There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus. Knowing and having the hope of the resurrection and all that this means to the Christian, the Apostle spoke of his commitment to maintain a clear conscience, one cleared by confession and the forsaking of all known sin (1 John 1:9; Prov. 6:23; Eph. 20:35b-38). Paul shows us in Romans that all categories of peoplethe good, the bad, and the uglyare really in the same boat and on their way to eternal separation from God. See Appendix B for more on the Judgment Seat (Bema) of Christ. (1) The sea, a reference to all those who died at sea and were not buried in the earth. This is none other than the Lord Jesus who is even now examining our lives and will bring to light the true nature of our walk and works when we stand before Him at the Bema (Rev. Romans 4:1-5: What then shall we say that Abraham, our forefather according to the flesh, has found? Such would be inconsistent with the finished work of Christ on the cross because He totally paid the penalty for our sins. This is the second death, the lake of fire. 9:6). These and only these are accepted by God and will spend eternity with Him (cf. They were assembling themselves with other believers and partaking of the Lords supper, but they were out of fellowship with the Lord and were controlled by the sinful nature, the flesh, rather than by the Holy Spirit. A God of faithfulness and without injustice. Sin always has its consequences and the Doctrine of the Judgments calls our attention to both the reality and nature of the consequences of sin. 20:34-35a). 2:10f; Rev. Just as He judged the Jews still alive at the end of the Tribulation when Christ personally returns to earth, so He will also judge those Gentiles who remain (Matt. The details of this will be developed in a summarized fashion in the material that follows. This seems to be used as a symbol of victory, authority, and responsibility. (3) A Graduate at Commencement. (5) The hour of testing which shall try the whole earth (Rev. Such a concept (punishment for sin) erroneously disparages the all-sufficiency of Christs death on the cross.13 Christ paid the penalty for the believers pre- and post-conversion sins. Adam and Eve died spiritually and began to die physically. (2) All believers, regardless of their spiritual state, will be raptured and will stand before the Bema to give an account of their lives and will either receive rewards or lose rewards. 4:10), Paul may also have in mind a personal crown or reward that he will receive because of their presence at the return of the Lord. 3:24; 5:15-17; 6:23; Eph. Please note that the clause he shall suffer loss would be better rendered it (the reward) shall be forfeited.. Through the Scriptures and the remnant of His people, He has taught man that he must have Gods righteousness, that God is of purer eyes than to approve evil or to accept or look upon wickedness (Hab. 2 One man has faith that he may eat all things, but he who is weak eats vegetables only. 24:9, 21, 29; Mark 13:19, 24; Rev. For in the way you judge, you will be judged; and by your standard of measure, it will be measured to you. These could refer to special blessing of rewards to those believers who overcomer special trials and tests rather than a general promise to all believers. 12:5f and 1 Cor. One of the prominent doctrines of the New Testament is the Doctrine of Rewards and the Judgment Seat of Christ. and will come forth; those who did the good deeds to a resurrection of life, those who committed the evil deeds to a resurrection of judgment. But by His word the present heavens and earth are being reserved for fire, kept for the day of judgment and destruction of ungodly men. 4:5 Therefore do not go on passing judgment before the time, but wait until the Lord comes who will both bring to light the things hidden in the darkness and disclose the motives of mens hearts; and then each mans praise will come to him from God. 1:4; 4:25). 3:10-15 with 9:24-27). Psalm 103:12 As far as the east is from the west, So far has He removed our transgressions from us. (6) It is a day of extreme deception and delusion (2 Thess. Some crucial questions are: Why are we brought before the Bema? 12; 14). Stresses their eternal value and security. At the judgment of the Gentiles Christ will separate the sheep, representing the saved, from the goats, representing the lost (Matt. But when men reject the knowledge of God and His plan of salvation, they in essence determine to stand on their own merit, or in their own righteousness. Not with Your anger, or You will bring me to nothing. This vision of the Great White Throne describes the last and final judgment of history. IV: Ecclesiology-Eschatology, Dallas Seminary Press, Dallas, TX, 1948, p. 406. 2 For if Abraham was justified by works, he has something to boast about; but not before God. (4) That dispensing of rewards is in view is also evident from the Greek words in 2 Corinthians 5:10 translated good (agathosvaluable like good fruit) and bad (phaulosunacceptable like rotten or spoiled fruit). 16 G. Abott-Smith, A Manual Greek Lexicon of the New Testament, T & T Clark, Edinburgh, 1937, p. 252. While bema is used in the gospels and Acts of the raised platform where a Roman magistrate or ruler sat to make decisions and pass sentence (Matt. 8 Now if we have died with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with Him, 9 knowing that Christ, having been raised from the dead, is never to die again; death no longer is master over Him. Why? Therefore no one is to act as your judge in regard to food or drink or in respect to a festival or a new moon or a Sabbath day, And Jesus said, For judgment I came into this world, so that those who do not see may see, and that those who see may become blind., Do not judge according to appearance, but judge with righteous judgment.. 6-19; Zech. garmin vivoactive 3 vs forerunner 45 Indeed, He works in us both to will and to do as we volitionally appropriate His grace (Phil. For it is time for judgment to begin with the household of God; and if it begins with us first, what will be the outcome for those who do not obey the gospel of God? According to the King James Bible, hell is mentioned over 100 timesbut that Because this is a completely different matter. There the laurel wreath was placed on his head as a symbol of victory (cf. We turn to our personal bag of tricks by which we seek to handle life (Gal. Discipline from God is the gracious work of a Father to train and develop His children. the word - judge - appears 191 times. Though we will not be judged in the sense of punished for sin at the Bema since the Lord has born that for us, we must never take sin lightly because there are many consequences. In other words, they are destroyed, dissolved (2 Pet. Do Those Who Commit Suicide Go To Hell? 3:9-10, 23). Is it sin, good works, or just what? Matthew 25:1-30 shows that God will judge living Israel to separate the saved from the unsaved. 8:1, 13-17), they are subject to judgment at the Judgment seat of Christ in relation to their works.
