NASB | 2 Corinthians 5:10 For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, so that each one may be recompensed for his deeds in the body, according to what he has done, whether good or bad. |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | 2 Corinthians 5:10 For we [believers will be called to account and] must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, so that each one may be repaid for what has been done in the body, whether good or bad [that is, each will be held responsible for his actions, purposes, goals, motives--the use or misuse of his time, opportunities and abilities]. |
Subject: Any consequences for the bad? |
Bible Note: Dear slillis20, Actually, this is about the same conclusion I have come to, especially the 'sad, certainly embarrasing' part. I believe this to be a consequence. I have heard said that there are no consequences whatsoever, and no rewards, either. Have no fear, I was not 'fishing' for grounds to take away salvation. The Word says there is unforgiveable sin, so I believe it. But It can't be too easy to lose, or all of us would qualify (or be disqualified, as it were). Indeed the idea of just consequence does 'stimulate me to love and good deeds.' Amen! In Christ Jesus. |
