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: What does judgement look like |
Bible Note: Hello bill0624, Actually, Jesus did say that the work to be done was to believe whom god had sent (John 6:29). And the focus on the great commission is to "make disciples." That is the active verb in the sentence. Going, teaching, and baptizing are modifiers. What Jesus said about salvation cannot be divorced from the rest of Scripture. If we listen only to him concerning salvation, then what do we do with the statements Moses, Samuel, David, Isaiah, Jeremiah, Paul, Peter, John, etc? Are they to be ignored? The life of faith is one of obedience from beginning to end, so I'm not sure what distinctions you are trying to make. Steve |
