Our Unavoidable Appointment With God
- Charles Stanley emphasizes that every person has a predestined appointment with God and its timing is entirely under God's control.
- He warns that apparent accidents often coincide with God's predetermined moment, so it's foolish to presume on future time for repentance.
Two Distinct Biblical Judgments
- Stanley distinguishes two biblical judgments: the believer's judgment seat of Christ and the great white throne of final condemnation.
- He clarifies that the judgment seat rewards believers for deeds, not salvation, while the great white throne condemns those whose names aren't in the book of life.
Individual Accountability Before Christ
- Every believer will individually give an account to Christ at the bema (judgment) seat, and God will judge each fairly according to deeds.
- Stanley notes God's infinitude makes individualized judgment possible and that degrees of reward will reflect differing knowledge and responsibility.
