Our great and gracious Lord and Savior Jesus Christ rewards as described in His Holy Word. Saints are entered into heaven because of their "faith" in the gospel of the Lord God Jesus Christ. Ephesians 2: 8-10.
The rewarding of the Saint is according to the work done in the name of the Lord.
1 Corinthians 3:11-15. If any works done is deemed to be "wood, hay, stubble" or the works performed did not praise the Lord, the works will be burned, and he will suffer loss. But here's the best part- v15b "but he himself shall be saved"
However the "reward" for the unsaved, lost, or dead is entirely different. As rightly stated by many on this forum, the "wages of sin is death." Romans 6:23. That is the key.
The lost or unsaved will appear at the great white throne to be "judged every man according to their works." Revelation 20:13b
"And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire." Revelation 20:15.
The Lord God is true and just in all His dealings with us.
The key to all of this is simply the Salvation of the Lord Jesus Christ. Even if we do not understand it, God does. He does not ask for our understanding; just our obedience and trust. God bless all on this forum. March 4, 2022
