Daily Lift – March 26th, 2018

For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ; that every one may receive the things done in his body, according to that he hath done, whether it be good or bad (2 Corinthians 5:10).

This passage contains a reminder, warning
and promise for our consideration.
First, we find the people assembled. The
writer reminds us that “we must all appear,” all
will be raised from the dead (John 5:28-29).

Second, we find the place appointed. This place:
“before the judgment seat of Christ.” He is the
One before Whom each will stand (John 5:22).

Third, we find the purpose assigned. This
purpose is “that every one may receive the things done
in his body,” a fearful matter (Hebrews 10:31) or
a comforting thought (Revelation 14:13).

Fourth, we find the particulars addressed.
Whether an individual has done “good or bad.”
This verse reminds us to do good and serve well.
