| ‘Wherefore we labour, that, whether present or absent, we may be accepted of him. For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ; that every one may receive the things done in the body, according to that he hath done, whether it be good or bad’, 2 Cor. 5. 9, 10.
Ten things God won’t ask on that day:
-
God won’t ask what kind of car you drove, He’ll ask how many people you gave a lift to who didn’t have any transportation.
-
God won’t ask the square footage of your house, He’ll ask how many people you welcomed into your home.
-
God won’t ask about the clothes you had in your wardrobe, but He’ll ask how many you helped to clothe.
-
God won’t ask what your highest salary was, but He’ll ask if you compromised your testimony to obtain it.
-
God won’t ask what your job title was, but He’ll ask whether you performed your job to the best of your ability.
-
God won’t ask how many friends you had, He’ll ask how many people to whom you made sure you were a friend.
-
God won’t ask in what neighbourhood you lived, He’ll ask how you treated and behaved with your neighbours.
-
God won’t ask about the colour of your skin, He’ll ask about the quality and growth of your character.
-
God wont ask you how much of your time you used watching television, but He will ask how much you used caring for others?
-
God won’t ask why it took you so long to seek salvation; He’ll just demonstrate how pleased He is to have you and take you to your mansion in heaven.
