The Judgment Seat Of Christ

This episode is a reminder. The Bible describes an appointment every born-again Believer has with Jesus Christ. A time described in 2 Corinthians 5:9-11 when each will appear before Him to receive His acknowledgement of the way we lived, specifics of both good or, not so good. It is true that sins can be completely forgiven by God when we repent—forgotten and removed as far as east is from west. Still, we are accountable before a holy God concerning choices, decisions, and motives associated with the way we live our lives on earth. All hearts are open before Him now and will be then.  

Shirley reminds us in this and previous episodes that God is dealing with the Church, waiting for our individual and corporate repentance. We cannot look the other way to preserve the status quo and certainly we cannot be careless but rather attentive—we are accountable to the Lord today, and every day. These truths are important reminders for the born-again Believer.
