Deep dives
Understanding Judgment in Christ
The judgment seat of Christ serves as a pivotal moment for believers to receive evaluation based on their works, despite being saved by grace. While salvation is secured through Jesus Christ, evidenced by faith and the new birth experience, believers are expected to live out their faith through good works. Paul emphasizes that even though one's salvation is not contingent on works, there will be an assessment of how individuals have lived their lives post-salvation. The distinction lies in the fact that good works in service to God will have eternal significance, contrasting with activities that provide no lasting value.
