Reader..

Being that there is another recently posted Thread that is trying to explain this subject incorrectly/falsely . I wanted to show you how to understand this Theological Subject, according to Paul's teaching.

"Bema Seat" Is the "Judgement seat of Christ".

Listen... the "bema seat".. the "Judgement Seat of Christ" that Paul explains.....is not a situation where sins are balanced against good deeds.
Its not a place where good is counted and bad is counted and one of those is the WINNER...

See, that particular teaching , as found in a different Thread on this Topic..... is exactly how a Unbeliever thinks.

Listen,

= an unbeliever....will tell a Christian......""Listen, you are no better than me....I knew you when you were a JERK....when you were a THIEF,. .. when you were selling DRUGS.... when you liked to drink all the time and fornicate.......when you were not paying Child support.......and now that you got "religion" you want to shove it down my Throat using a BIBLE........so, let me tell you this.... Jesus Freak.... you are no better then me....so, if God will take you, He'll take me......God will look at ALL my deeds and if my bad deeds added up are more then my Good DEEDS.... then i go to hell. And if my GOOD DEEDS are more plentiful then my Bad deeds,...when its all added up..... then God will judge me as good enough to keep""".

So, reader do you see that? That is not how it goes, after you die, yet that is how most unbelievers THINK.

As THAT is not the Judgement Seat of Christ... as the OP - poster has posted on a recent Thread.....falsely

1.) The Judgement seat of Christ is for those who are "IN CHRIST"... In "His Body"...."The Body of CHRIST", and that is why Jesus says you'll be judged for the deeds // works you've done in ="'"MY BODY""... As Paul Teaches.

2.)
How will you be Judged? ??
Jesus will analyze all you ever did for God and Christ, and He will examine those deeds for = HEART MOTIVE.

A.) What was your Heart MOTIVE for doing it?

Why did you do those deeds?... = Was it to get ATTENTION? Was it to make more money ??? Was it so that people on Forums would give you attention and perhaps some PRAISE? (= likes)
Why did you want to be a deacon, or deaconess?
Why did you want to be a Preacher?
Why were you so driven to have a TV ministry or Youtube Video Blog series?

AA.) What was the MOTIVE IN YOUR HEART for all the things you ever did for God and Christ?

= THAT is how you will be Judged, by Jesus...... at the "Judgment seat of CHRIST">... He is going to examine all you ever did for Him... to see if your HEART was right when you did it, or if you were just doing all those WORKS for SELFISH reasons...or Self Centered Reasons... or PRIDE FILLED reasons.

Check your heart , Reader, as God sees it right now.

He's always looking at your HEART.

Believe it.

"Teachers" are given, "For the perfecting of the Born again".
Apostles are given for the same reason, as are Pastors, and Evangelists, and Prophets.

A CHRISTian, has to learn what God wants you to know, so, this Knowledge comes by revelation....>by "being revealed"...

The difference is.... the knowledge of God is spiritually discerned, vs, the type of analytical learning a carnal mind accomplishes.

But there is a WARNING...

And its this..

THE DEVIL read those same verses and He understands how to deliver man-man Theology, that is created to sound like, and appear to be TRUTH.

Hebrews 13:9, tells the Born again person, what you must do with your heart, or the Devil's Ministers, will serve you a "doctrines of Devil's.... theology that feels good to your flesh, and you'll BELIEVE its God's Spirit teaching you.

As a Christian who is born again of the Spirit of God we are already judged to be clean and sinless and our eternity has already begun.

Absolutely.

God could not join us to Himself.....>"God is A Spirit".......we are born again "Spiritually", , until we are made free from sin.

= Forgiven...

Otherwise God the Holy Righteous ONE would be joining Himself to a unforgiven SINNER.

There are some who are deceived by Calvin, who teach that they were born again, before they were forgiven, so that after being born again, and now being "given faith to believe" they can NOW Believe, and be forgiven.

So, that is teaching.....>"God joined His Spirit to mine, before my sins were forgiven, so that God could give me faith, so that i could finally believe".

Thats a NO.

A.) John Calvinism is a Lie

That is because in this case, you are agreeing with Paul.

In the case of demonic Calvinism, you're not.
Well as all you can do is mutter and chirp about Calvinism, you raccusations are empty and without merit. You are a phiny and unfit bible teacher IMNSHO.
