Episode notes
Believers Face A Rewards Judgment Not A Salvation Trial
- Believers will stand before Christ at a judgment of rewards, not of salvation.
- Charles Stanley explains this is for saved people only and rewards match each person's deeds and motives, not comparisons to others.
Rewards Match The Deed Motive And Cost
- Rewards will vary in kind and degree because opportunities, motives, and the cost of the deed differ.
- Stanley contrasts small acts like giving a cup of cold water with martyrdom, showing God counts both and rewards accordingly.
Do Not Seek Public Praise As Your Reward
- Avoid doing good primarily for public acclaim because applause is the only reward you'll get.
- Stanley warns that when motives are prideful the person 'already has received reward' and will not receive heavenly reward for that act.
