15 If the work is burned up, the builder will suffer loss; the builder will be saved, but only as through fire.
There are "crowns" and "rewards" given in Heaven, that are related to the service we present to God, as our "present your body as a living sacrifice, which is your reasonable SERVICE"..
Paul said "i have finished my course" and there is laid up for me a CROWN........""" 2 Tim 4.
This is related to Colossians 1:23 that says if you continue in the faith grounded and unmoved.
So, Heretics teach the "grounded and unmoved" as ... "and if you are moved then you lost your salvation">.
But that verse is connected to "finishing your course" perfectly, having never become backsliddent= or "dead faith and thus "the Crown",...
That's the hardest of all to achieve..
And THOSE are related to the "Judgement seat of Christ" or the "bema" Seat, that is not a judgement against your sin, as that has been judged against CHRIST on the Cross, 2000 yrs ago..
So, the BORN AGAIN, will meet Jesus at the "judgement seat", and that is a reward's situation..
And Jesus will evaluate our works that we have committed "in the Body".... .. in other words.. all those things we've done, as Believers, for God and Christ... will be evaluated......but not regarding the actual deed, but regarding the HEART MOTIVE that produced the deed.
For example, ive written hundreds of THREADs on this forum and on others, and so, was my MOTIVE for doing all this "work"... a pure heart, or was it "look at me, give me attention".
So, regarding my "service" Jesus will evaluate all ive done for Him "In the body" (Of Christ) and those works that are "self centered" will burn as "wood , hay, stubble" and those that ive committed to God with the RIGHT
HEART MOTIVE, will be rewarded, (symbolically) as "precious stones, silver, gold."
One thing i can tell you, is that ive never posted a post, and that is easily 200,000 + on Forums over the years.. that even once suggested that Salvation is not wholly and totally based on the Cross of Christ, as Jonn 14:6
Ive never posted a Thread or a Post where i tried to cast DOUBT on God's word, or imply that the bible is not Trustworthy.
So, these type things, are all about the HEART in the person posting.. .and in that case, my Threads and my Posts, always gave Jesus full credit for Salvation and the Holy Bible my full and utter respect.
