2 Corinthians 5 Scofield
Read 2 Corinthians 5 · Matthew Henry on 2 Corinthians 5
5:10 For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ; that every one may receive the things done in his body, according to that he hath done, whether it be good or bad.
“For we must all appear”
The judgment of the believer's works, not sins, is in question here. These have been atoned for, and are "remembered no more forever" Heb 10:17 but every work must come into judgment,; Matt 12:36; Rom 14:10; Gal 6:7; Eph 6:8; Col 3:24; Col 3:25. The result is "reward" or "loss" (of the reward), "but he himself shall be saved" 1 Cor 3:11–15.
This judgment occurs at the return of Christ Matt 16:27; Luke 14:14; 1 Cor 4:5; 2 Tim 4:8; Rev 22:12.
