Bible Note: Hello BradK, The scripture you posted was very profound. There is alot there, and Im still chewing on it;)...But from other scripture I read it sounds like are faith non-theless is on trial. 1Pe 1:7 so that the trial of your faith (being much more precious than that of gold that perishes, but being proven through fire) might be found to praise and honor and glory at the revelation of Jesus Christ, 1Pe 1:8 whom having not seen, you love; in whom not yet seeing, but believing in Him you exult with unspeakable joy, and having been glorified, 1Pe 1:9 obtaining the end of your faith, the salvation of your souls. The end of our faith is the salvation of our bodies with the breath of life in them. Untill this event happens we all walk by faithfulness unto death and not with sight. I hold the view that every true beleiver must judge themselves so that God wont have to. 1Co 11:31 For if we would judge ourselves, we would not be judged. 2Co 5:10 For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, so that each one may receive the things done through the body, according to that which he has done, whether good or bad. 1Co 15:36 Foolish one! What you sow is not made alive unless it dies. 1Co 15:37 And what you sow, you do not sow the body that is going to be, but a bare grain (perhaps of wheat or of some of the rest). 1Co 15:38 And God gives it a body as it has pleased Him, and to each of the seeds its own body. 1Co 15:58 So that, my beloved brothers, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, knowing that your labor is not without fruit in the Lord. I beleive that God will raise our bodies(seed) as it has pleased him. Some to everlasting life, some not. But are work and our labor to the Lord is not in vain. For our labors bring forth fruit in the Lord. I beleive that each person will receive judgment on the thing he/she has sown in there own bodies. Wether it be good or bad. Im still open to new thought MaTT |
