The Judgment Seat of Christ

Now, they both are before the judgment seat of Christ, and each one will be judged according to their acts.

They are seated waiting for Christ’s arrival to judge them.

Dennis had the same appearance when he was a young adult, tan skin, thin, average height, short black hair, and light brown eyes.

Paul also had the same appearance when he was a young adult, thin, average height, dark brown skin, almost shaved black hair, and brown eyes.

Jesus gets into the room, and immediately Dennis kneels, recognizing his condition as a sinner, and the authority of Jesus.

Paul thought, This man must be a great sinner, that’s why he’s like that. Fortunately, I’m not like that. I always walked righteously before the Lord.

Noticing the arrogance of Paul, Jesus said in an energetic tone, “Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees!”

One more time, Paul thought, For sure, this is for that man.

Jesus shook his head negatively and passed the hand over his face. He entered the court and called Paul, this one thought, The best ones are always the first chosen.
