Transport to the Judgment Seat

“ Wherefore my beloved, as ye have always obeyed me, not as in my presence only, but now much more in mine absence, so make an end of your own salvation with fear and trembling.” (Php 2:12 GenevaBible)

Those who are really working out their salvation with “fear and trembling” (Phil. ii. 12), will not worry themselves over the unimportant question as to how they will get to the Judgment Seat when the call comes.

The Angels of the Lord will manage that, and see to all the details right enough (Matt. xxiv. 31).

“ And he shall send his Angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect, from the four winds, and from the one end of the heavens unto the other.” (Mt 24:31 GenevaBible)

A good many motors, trains, aeroplanes and boats would be missed if it depended upon the “called” to provide the means of travel. The “foolish virgins” would doubtless hang back; but, the decree is, “all” must go to meet him there (2 Cor. v. 10).

“ For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, that every man may receive the things which are done in his body, according to that he hath done, whether it be good or evil.” (2Co 5:10 GenevaBible)

The question then will be, not

“How shall we get there?”

but

“How shall we meet him?”
