Aren't there different rewards for believers in heaven?
I believe that the judgment for believers are based on their deeds and will receive greater or lesser rewards in heaven depending on their life.....
I know some disagree... I heard our previous Reformed Baptist Pastor say that believers will not be wailing in tears for their sins they committed in life during the judgment seat and that there is no rewards of greater or lesser in the kingdom of heaven.. My wife and I just looked at each other and knew each other thoughts, "How could he say that".
I do believe there will be tears of for the sins we have committed against our Lord, but they will be short lived knowing that they are washed away by the debt paid, I also believe depending on our lives there will be greater or lesser rewards.....

2 Cor. 5:10"For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, so that each one may receive what is due for what he has done in the body, whether good or evil."
Is this true? Or is this just our human nature wanting to feel like we need to earn something? |
