Bible Question:
Hi E.Smith Good work on the King of Tyre and the Stars of heaven. I do have a question for you though. How do you reconcile a post millennial judgement with Rev 22:12? "And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be." Jesus is speaking to John here, and he clearly says that his reward is with him when he comes quickly. This has to be his second coming as the redeemed have not yet entered the gates into the city for their reward. Rev 22:14 Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city." Immediately followed by his reward for those that you mentioned in Rev 22:15, which is being left outside the city. Steve |
Bible Answer: Greetings, Hebrews 9:27 (NKJV) 27 And as it is appointed for men to die once, but after this the judgment, Seeing as how this is the case when will those that are born during the millennium be judged seeing that they will be born with an old sin nature yet many will believed in Jesus? The only judgment mentioned in Scripture after that period is the white throne judgment, even though the dead unbelievers are judged then it is possible the those that believe in Christ during the thousand year reign might be judged at that time as well out of the book of life and for their works. Believers alive before the rapture will be judged for their works after the rapture and are judged at the (BEMA) seat of Christ and their works will be tried by fire, i.e. wood hay and stubble or gold silver and precious stones; this judgment is for rewards only. Christ says that He comes quickly and my reward is with me. Have a great day, CDBJ |
