Galatians 5:16-23 teaches that at any moment we are either walking by the Holy Spirit or according to the sin nature. Walking by the Spirit, enjoying fellowship with God, walking in the light are virtually synonymous. During these times, the Holy Spirit is working in us to illuminate our minds to the truth of Scripture and to challenge us to apply what we learn. But when we sin, we begin to live based on the sin nature. Our works do not count for eternity. The only way to recover is to confess (admit, acknowledge) our sin to God the Father and we are instantly forgiven, cleansed, and recover our spiritual walk (1 John 1:9). Please make sure you are walking by the Spirit before you begin your Bible study, so it will be spiritually profitable.

How many judgments are there in Scripture? Listen to this lesson to learn the difference between the Judgment Seat of Christ for believers and the Great White Throne Judgment for unbelievers. Understand that the Judgment Seat of Christ is designed for believers to determine rewards and not their eternal destiny. Learn about the four resurrections and the sheep and goat judgment. Come to understand that the issue is the standard of God's righteousness and that man can never measure up to that. God, in His grace, imputes His righteousness to those who believe in His Son, Jesus Christ. The question all of us must ask is if we are ready for God's judgment?
