Evening — February 5 — 2 Corinthians 5:10

For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, that each one may receive his due for the things done in the body, whether good or bad. — 2 Corinthians 5:10The anticipation of Christ's judgment urges believers toward holy living instead of leaving them afraid. Since justification is a finished legal reality in Christ, the final assessment will be a display of grace, not a threat for the redeemed. That truth turns daily obedience from a desperate effort to earn favor into a joyful thank offering to the God who already said "not guilty."
