For he hath made him {to be} sin for us,
who knew no sin;
that we might be made the righteousness of
God in him.
Gal. 3:13
Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of
the law, being
made a curse for us: for it is written,
Cursed {is} every
one that hangeth on a tree:
2. JUDGMENT OF SELF.
(DAILY)
1 Cor. 11:31-32
For if we would judge ourselves, we should
not be judged.
But when we are judged, we are chastened
of the Lord, that
we should not be condemned with the world.
3. JUDGMENT OF SAINTS.
(AT RAPTURE)
2 Cor. 5:10
For we must all appear before the judgment
seat of Christ;
that every one may receive the things
{done} in {his}
body, according to that he hath done,
whether {it be} good
or bad.(WORTHLESS)
Rom. 14:10
But why dost thou judge thy brother? or
why dost thou set
at nought thy brother? for we shall all
stand before the
judgment seat of Christ.
4. JUDGMENT OF SINNERS.
(GREAT WHITE THRONE)
Rev. 20:11
And I saw a great white throne, and him
that sat on it,
from whose face the earth and the heaven
fled away; and
there was found no place for them. And I
saw the dead,
small and great, stand before God; and the
books were
opened: and another book was opened, which
is {the book}
of life: and the dead were judged out of
those things
which were written in the books, according
to their works.
5. JUDGMENT OF NATIONS.
(SHEEP & GOATS)
Mt. 25:31
When the Son of man shall come in his
glory, and all the
holy angels with him, then shall he sit
upon the throne of
his glory:And before him shall be gathered
all nations:
and he shall separate them one from
another, as a shepherd
divideth {his} sheep from the goats.
*The first 3 apply to us!*
THE PRESENT BELIEVER’S JUDGMENT IS
THREEFOLD.
1. Past Judgment as a Sinner.
2. Present Judgment as a Son.
3. Future Judgment as a Servant.
I. OUR PAST JUDGMENT AS A
SINNER.
Isaiah 53:6" the LORD hath laid on him the
iniquity of us all."
2 Cor. 5:21" For he hath made him <to be>
sin for us, who knew no
sin; that we might be made the
righteousness of God in him."
1 Peter 2:24 "Who his own self bare our
sins in his own body on the
tree."
RICH MAN IN HELL VS: CHRIST ON THE CROSS:
[Jesus took our hell for us!]
1 Agony of Separation - Christ
Separated from Father
2. Agony of Thirst - Christ
said " I Thirst"
3. Agony of Darkness - Christ had
3 hours of dark.
4. Agony of Eternity - "It is
finished"(Suffered all)
II. OUR PRESENT JUDGMENT
AS A SON.
1 Cor. 11:31 " For if we would judge
ourselves, we should not be
judged. "
1 Cor. 11:32 " But when we are judged, we
are chastened of the Lord,
that we should not be
condemned with the world."
1 Cor. 11:28 " But let a man examine
himself.
We are not to sin, but if we do sin, we have
an advocate
1 John 2:1-2 My little children, these things
write I unto you, that ye
sin not. And if any man sin, we
have an advocate with the
Father, Jesus Christ the
righteous: And he is the
propitiation for our sins: and not
for ours only, but also
for <the sins of> the whole world.
1 John 1:8-9 If we say that we have no sin,
we deceive ourselves, and the
truth is not in us. If we confess
our sins, he is
faithful and just to forgive us
<our> sins, and to cleanse
us from all unrighteousness.
FOUR THINGS PEOPLE DO
ABOUT THEIR SINS
1.
CAST BLAME.
Adam blamed Eve, then blamed
God.
"It was the WOMAN, THOU gavest me."
Saul blamed the people when
the sheep bleated" [1 Sam. 15]
2.
COVER THEM. Prov. 28:13 "He that covereth his sin, shall not
prosper."
3.
CONFESS THEM. 1 John 1:9 "If we confess our sins, he is
faithful and just to forgive us our
sins, and to cleanse us
from all unrighteousness."
"Forgiveness mean "to Bear the burden."
The man who forgives you
a $1,000.00 debt must carry the
burden of that $ 1,000.
4. BE
CHASTENED. " Hebrews 12:5-11 And ye have
forgotten the exhortation which
speaketh unto you as unto
children, My son, despise not thou
the chastening of the Lord,
nor faint when thou art rebuked of
him: {6} For whom the Lord
loveth he chasteneth, and scourgeth
every son whom he
receiveth. {7} If ye endure
chastening, God dealeth with you
as with sons; for what son is he whom
the father chasteneth
not? {8} But if ye be without
chastisement, whereof all are
partakers, then are ye bastards, and
not sons. {9} Furthermore
we have had fathers of our flesh
which corrected <us>, and we
gave them reverence: shall we not
much rather be in subjection
unto the Father of spirits, and
live? {10} For they verily for
a few days chastened us after their
own pleasure; but he for
<our> profit, that we might be
partakers of his holiness. {11}
Now no chastening for the present
seemeth to be joyous, but
grievous: nevertheless afterward it
yieldeth the peaceable
fruit of righteousness unto them
which are exercised thereby."
THREE THINGS GOD CAN DO ABOUT OUR SINS
1. Make us pay for them in Hell.
(Contradicts Bible)
2. Ingore them.
3. Chasten us in this life.
WHAT IS CHASTENING?
"Child Training"
It is not payment/punishment.[ If a child
breaks a window, paddling does not fix or pay for the window.]
HOW IS THE CHRISTIAN
CHASTENED?
1. Sometime the LOSS
OF HEALTH. (not all sickness is
chastening.)
Blind man, "Neither did this man or his
parents sin, but that
the Lord might be glorified."
1 Corinthians 11:30 For this cause
many <are> weak and sickly
among you, and many sleep.
2.
Sometimes the LOSS OF PROPERTY. Amos 4 I have smitten you
with blasting and mildew: when your gardens and your vineyards and
your fig trees and your olive trees
increased, the palmerworm
devoured <them>: yet have ye not
returned unto me, saith the
LORD."
3.
Sometimes the LOSS OF JOY. Psalms 51:12 Restore unto me the
joy of thy salvation; and uphold me <with thy> free spirit.
4.
Sometimes the LOSS OF LOVED ONES. 2 Samuel 12:14 Howbeit,
because by this deed thou hast given
great occasion to the
enemies of the LORD to blaspheme, the
child also <that is> born
unto thee shall surely die.
5.
Sometimes the PREMATURE DEATH OF BELIEVERS.
1 Corinthians 11:30 For this cause many <are>
weak and sickly among you, and many sleep.
1 John 5:16 There is a sin unto
death: I do not
say that he shall pray for it.
1 Corinthians 5:5 To deliver such an
one unto Satan for the
destruction of the flesh, that the
spirit may be saved in the
day of the Lord Jesus.
WHAT ARE THE RESULTS OF
CHASTENING?
Romans 8:29 For whom he did foreknow, he also
did predestinate <to be> conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be
the firstborn among many brethren.
Hebrews 12:10 For they verily for a few days
chastened <us>
after their own pleasure; but he for <our>
profit, that <we>
might be partakers of his holiness.
Hebrews 12:11 Now no chastening for the
present seemeth to be
joyous, but grievous: nevertheless afterward
it yieldeth the peaceable fruit
of righteousness unto them which are exercised thereby.
III. THE BELIEVER'S FUTURE
JUDGMENT AS A SERVANT.
1 Corinthians 3:11-15 [works/motive]
Moody: "I would not work my soul to save, For
this my Lord hath done;
But I would work like any slave, For
love of His dear Son.”
Ephesians 2:10 For we are his workmanship,
created in Christ Jesus unto
good works, which God hath before ordained
that we should walk in them.
2 Corinthians 5:10 For we must all appear
before the judgment seat of
Christ; that every one may receive the
things <done> in <his>
body, according to that he hath done,
whether <it be> good or bad.
"We" found 26 times in Chapt. 5 =
"believers every time"
THERE ARE FIVE CROWNS TO BE GIVE AT THE
JUDGMENT SEAT.
[this will be continued in the next message
focusing in on the Judgment Seat of Christ.]
