“Jesus will stand to accuse, and then sit to render judgment. 2 Corinthians 5:10 reads: ‘For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, so that each one may receive what is due for the things he did while in his body, good or bad.’ So we don’t come before Jesus Who we expect to stand to accuse us, but rather we know He is without accusation. He sits to judge what we’ve done while in our body. This isn’t a threat of hell, for we are already part of His Kingdom! A father may catch his child doing wrong, but there is no threat of disowning the child, only a reckoning within the family. That is the judgment seat of Christ. Not based on accusations, but based on what we’ve done since being in Him.
“So if you’ve believed the judgment seat of Christ is that ‘you may not be allowed into heaven,’ now you see the truth, because you are a new creation in Christ and constantly secure in His salvation, love, and grace.”
