    Judgement Seat of Christ for who ?

    Absolutely! Born again believers rejoice with the first century disciples because our names are written in heaven, recorded in the book of life from the foundation of the world. Luke 10:20 (KJV) Notwithstanding in this rejoice not, that the spirits are subject unto you; but rather rejoice...

    Judgement Seat of Christ for who ?

    Yes, but it is using the Old Covenant nation as an example for the church! You're making it a conditional statement, but it is a statement for those of faith, that they might know that not all who call Christ Lord shall be saved! The context plainly shows that some in the church, just like...

    Judgement Seat of Christ for who ?

    Why are some of you continually taking statements of fact found in the Bible and making them conditional statements as though they teach one who is born again by grace through faith might fall away and lose the eternal life they received the moment they were born again??? Christ would not say...

    Judgement Seat of Christ for who ?

    Israel of Old departed from God through Unbelief! That means they were NEVER of faith in Him. Their hearts remained harden through the deceitfulness of sin. Hebrews 3:12-14 (KJV) Take heed, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief, in departing from the living God...

    Judgement Seat of Christ for who ?

    It's not possible for one's name to be blotted out of the book of life for all who are ordained to be saved. If it were the Bible would be filled with contradiction and confusion. The book of life/living/Lamb's book of remembrance written from the foundation of the world records the names of...

    Judgement Seat of Christ for who ?

    When are the names of all who will be eternally saved written in the book of life? When did God choose those who are eternally saved? What does the Bible say about the elect of God?

    Judgement Seat of Christ for who ?

    It does not say good works are required to be eternally saved. If good works plus faith is being taught, why did those who did good not realize the works they did would save them? The righteous were not taught it was their good works that saved them. Why, if we are saved by good works plus...

    Judgement Seat of Christ for who ?

    No, I don't believe a born again believer should do good to gain reward! I believe in this life born again believers are rewarded with blessings from God because our goal is to spiritually build the Kingdom of God by proclaiming the Gospel of Christ.

    Judgement Seat of Christ for who ?

    I've often come to a point where I feel compelled to end the discussion with some people in these forums! I've come to believe that many here are simply trolls whose true goal is to talk down to, belittle and accuse fellow Christians just because they do not agree with them.

    What do you mean by prosperity doctrine?

    Satan and his demons are real beings/entities (with personalities) not abstract evil within unregenerate man

    Yes, human males likened to sons of God married human females of mankind and mated with them. Nothing about fallen angels marrying human women and procreating offspring that would be neither angel or human!

    Judgement Seat of Christ for who ?

    Yes, the Bible is abundantly clear when speaking to us of eternal life! When man possesses eternal life in Christ, we have already come through the JSC in this life. When we are called before the GWT we shall not be judged again but shall be there to receive our inheritance!

    Judgement Seat of Christ for who ?

    The rewards we receive in this life for being faithful unto Christ is better understood as receiving BLESSINGS from God. We don't do good to earn the blessings from God, we do good works because we have already received His greatest blessing that is EVERLASTING ETERNAL life through the Spirit...

    Judgement Seat of Christ for who ?

    We have eternal spiritual life now, from the moment we are born again, and because we have ETERNAL life now through the Spirit of Christ in us, we are now waiting for and anticipating immortal/incorruptible physical life that shall be at His coming when the last trumpet sounds. It is at...

    Judgement Seat of Christ for who ?

    Peter, salvation from the beginning of man has always been through the power of the Holy Spirit when we hear the Gospel of Christ proclaimed. Galatians 3:8 (KJV) And the scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the heathen through faith, preached before the gospel unto Abraham, saying...

    Judgement Seat of Christ for who ?

    Yes, you have this much right. We have eternal life from the moment we believe and have been born again. But you also believe, (even though you aren't saying so here) that our eternal life from the moment we have been born again is not ETERNAL! Since you don't believe in ETERNAL SECURITY for...

    Satan and his demons are real beings/entities (with personalities) not abstract evil within unregenerate man

    It is believed by some biblical scholars that this speculation regarding angels as "sons of God" either originated or was perpetuated through Enoch. That's partly why early church fathers decided the writings of Enoch should be excluded from the Holy Bible. It was determined they did not come...

    Judgement Seat of Christ for who ?

    Where in Scripture do we read of reward(S) being handed out to believers? We NEVER read of reward(S) for believers at the judgment. There is ALWAYS only one REWARD, and that is the same REWARD that every believer shall receive at the end of this world. Why would believers have to give account...

    Judgement Seat of Christ for who ?

    I understand why you insist that even the righteous shall be judged according to what is done in the body at the end of this world. It's because you deny we are eternally secure in Christ the moment we have been born again! Because you imagine believers have not eternal life until the final...
