THE GREAT WHITE THRONE & THE JUDGMENT SEAT OF CHRIST - By Robert E. Hanna




    THE GREAT WHITE THRONE & THE JUDGMENT SEAT OF CHRIST 
 By Robert E. Hanna


Scripture Reading: Revelation 20:11, II Corinthians 5:10

Many people-saved people-live in dread of death  because they do not understand the kind of judgment that  they will face before God. There is indeed a final judgment to  come- which is awesome and should strike fear into the heart  of those who will face it. The Apostle John wrote, describing  what was revealed to him in a vision on the Isle of Patmos, "I  saw a great white throne, and Him [Christ] that sat on it ....  and I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the  books were opened: and another book was opened, which is  the book oflife ... and whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire" (Revelation 20:11-  15). Those described here are the lost-those who did not  accept God's proffered salvation before they died. The lost  from all generations are raised from the dead to face this  sentence of eternal separation from God.

But you and I, if we have been saved by the grace of God  through faith, are not destined to confront the Great White  Throne. Our apostle has revealed that "We must all appear  before the judgment seat of Christ [not the great white  throne]; that every one may receive the things done in his  body, according to that he hath done, whether it be good or  bad" (II Corinthians 5:10). The works for which we will be  judged are those accomplished in service to God during our  lives after we have been saved. "If any man's work shall be  burned, he shall suffer loss [of reward], but he himself shall be  saved ... " (I Corinthians 3:15).
