Subject: God's Forgiveness of Sin |
Bible Note: Hello Robert. Greetings in His precious name, I’ve been reviewing your post addressed to me dated 1/10/02 and there are several points made that I do agree with and I’d like to comment further on them. Your comments are in quotes, (As if you couldn't recognize your own comments) Please tolerate my tendancy to over detail at times. "Brother, our sins and the punishment for our sins were laid on Christ. Thus, I have difficulty seeing punishment at the judgement seat of Christ. However, we will suffer loss if we fail to commit ourselves to Christ in our lives and allow him to work through us. The awards of that day will be laid at his feet and to his glory forever." I can see that I didn't express myself very well and the Judgement Seat of Christ is not a time of punishment. What I should have said is that the loss of reward owing to a spiritual history of self serving works and few unselfish, love motivated works. (1 Corinthians 3:12-15 12Now if anyone builds on this foundation with gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, straw, 13each one's work will become clear; for the Day will declare it, because it will be revealed by fire; and the fire will test each one's work, of what sort it is. 14If anyone's work which he has built on it endures, he will receive a reward. 15If anyone's work is burned, he will suffer loss; but he himself will be saved, yet so as through fire.), will cause carnal Christians to suffer a terrible sense of loss. R.T. Kendall used the phrase "rewards or punishment in the Last Day". Once again I agree with you. the phrase should read, "rewards or lack of". And from a personal feeling standpoint, I feel that "none to few rewards" from Him is punishment. This is part one. Part two will follow later today. In Him, Eagle One |
