Bible Question: Are there awards given once Jesus returns for us? And what rewards can I strive for or hope to receive? |
Bible Answer: Greetings jbw - no, The Lord will not be giving out any blue ribbons or even red ones, but according His Word, there will be REWARDS! However, if your reason for serving Him is to receive rewards, you are building with wood hay and straw (Read 1 Cor 3) This is performance Christianity! Christ examines the motives of our hearts - this is how He tests our "work." Whatever you do, do your work heartily, as for the Lord rather than for men,knowing that from the Lord you will receive the reward of the inheritance. It is the Lord Christ whom you serve. Col 3:23-24 If any man's work which he has built on it (the foundation of Christ) remains, he will receive a reward. 1 Cor 3:14 "I, the LORD, search the heart, I test the mind, Even to give to each man according to his ways, According to the results of his deeds. Jer 17:10 mommapbs |
