Imagine you are standing at the judgment seat of Christ.
There you are,
all your hopes and dreams about heaven are finally real.
The grace that Jesus gave you freely has brought you home.
You stand in front of your Saviour for the first time.
You bow at His feet with floods of joy filling your eyes.
Your heart is overflowing with the reality of it all being true.
You begin to realize how true it
is. Heaven is real, yes it is.
Everything you have believed about salvation, heaven, Jesus, eternity,
and all that goes with it, it is all so real.
You praise Him
for all He has done. You join in
chorus with millions upon millions of other believers singing a song like you
have never sung before.
You are overwhelmed by such truth,
such peace, such honesty. All of it
is hard to take in, yet it is so real you can do nothing but rejoice in the Lord
and in His presence.
As your emotions escalate to great heights you are suddenly confronted by the words of the Lord as he speaks.
“Now your
faith has become sight.” With this
statement you rejoice with joy unspeakable.
He says,
“I have redeemed you through my blood.”
With this statement you begin to weep with tears of love.
Surrounding your whole being is a sense of thankfulness to the Lamb that was
slain for your sins. This feeling cannot be described.
He again makes a statement, “You
are going to spend eternity with me in glory.” “As the ages roll on and on,
eternity with no end." "Forever and ever together in glory.”
You have a
feeling come over you like never before.
A feeling of complete peace, joy, and warm comfort.
Christ then asks a question that will
pierces your heart. A question that
will weigh in the balance as you stand to receive or lose rewards.
He asks, “How many people did you tell about me?” “How many people did you pray for to be saved?” “How many people did you make a difference in their life toward salvation?”
He asks, “Who else is here with you, because of you?”
