As timely as it is...
As united the believers should be...
2 "Judgments" to energize "current" Christian Living...
One (White Throne Judgment) to remind of "compassion" [by the urgency of sharing the Gospel] to those who will fail to trust in Jesus...
The other (Judgment Seat of Christ), a motivation to "glorify God" in all possible aspects of daily Christian life.

β¨ THE JUDGMENT SEAT OF CHRIST vs THE GREAT WHITE THRONE JUDGMENT β¨
π βRightly dividing the word of truth.β β 2 Timothy 2:15
π INTRODUCTION
Many believers confuse the Judgment Seat of Christ with the Great White Throne Judgment because they fail to rightly divide Godβs prophetic and mystery programs. In the Dispensational truth, these are two different judgments, for two different groups, with two different purposes.
The Judgment Seat of Christ concerns the Body of Christ and rewards for service.
The Great White Throne Judgment concerns the unsaved dead and eternal punishment.
God is holy, just, and righteous. Every soul will stand before Him someday. The question is: Will you stand as a saved saint or as a condemned sinner?
1οΈβ£ THE PEOPLE IN THE JUDGMENTS
π 2 Corinthians 5:10 | Revelation 20:12-15
A. SAVED SAINTS at the Judgment Seat
π 2 Corinthians 5:10
The Body of Christ appears before Christ after the Rapture for rewards, not condemnation.
B. SINFUL SOULS at the Great White Throne

The unsaved dead stand before God because they rejected salvation.

π Ephesians 1:13
Believers are sealed by the Holy Spirit in this Dispensation of Grace.
D. SEPARATED SINNERS face eternal judgment

The Body of Christ is not appointed to wrath because salvation today is by grace through faith apart from works.
2οΈβ£ THE PURPOSE OF THE JUDGMENTS
π Romans 14:10 | Revelation 20:13

π Dispensational Truth:

3οΈβ£ THE POSITION OF THE BELIEVER

π£ CONCLUSION
The Judgment Seat of Christ and the Great White Throne Judgment are not the same. One is for reward, the other for wrath. One is for the saved, the other for the lost.
The greatest question is not:
βWill I stand before God?β
The greatest question is:
βHow will I stand before Him?β
Only those who trust the finished work of Christ are eternally secure.
