Passage: 1 Peter 4:5-6 & 1 Corinthians 3:12-15
Series: 1 Peter (2015)
Duration: 1 hr 8 mins 35 secs
What does it mean when the Bible says that everyone must give an account of themselves to God? Listen to this lesson to see that every person born into this world will face an evaluation by God. For the believer this is called the Judgment Seat of Christ where we will be evaluated in order to determine our rewards and responsibilities. For the unbeliever, there is the Great White Throne of God. Hear what aspects of a person’s life will be judged there to see whether or not they are qualified to live with God forever. Hear about the Lamb’s Book of Life and the Book of Works. Understand that sinful man cannot perform righteous deeds. Realize that the Lake of Fire is a reality. When talking to unbelievers help them to see that sin is no longer an issue since Christ cancelled the sin debt on the Cross but the focus is on belief in Christ.
This lesson also includes Revelation 20:11–15.

Series: God's Plan for the Ages - Dispensations (2014)
Duration: 55 mins 24 secs
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?
