Colonel Robert Howard remembered. Doctrine of The Judgment Seat of Christ. The believer's life in eternity will depend on how he serves the Lord in time. God gives to each of us opportunities to grow spiritually and serve Him. The freedom He grants us to fulfill His plan necessarily means there will be inequality in eternity. The faithful believer will be rewarded at the JS/C; the unfaithful will suffer temporary shame. How does the timing of this future evaluation fit with the Rapture, Tribulation, and Second Advent?
