 According to the Scriptures, how a
believer lives right now impacts the results of that
"payday"--the appearance before the Judgment Seat of Christ.
Understanding the subject of rewards, which was frequently
discussed by Christ and His apostles, is critical for
developing a biblical worldview and for producing endurance
in the Christian life. The study examines many
scriptures that promise significant rewards to the faithful,
diligent child of God.
Dr. Paul N. Benware is currently
Professor of Bible and Doctrine at Philadelphia Biblical
University. His prior professorships were at Moody
Bible Institute and Los Angeles Baptist College (now Mater's
College). He has authored six books including,
Understanding End Times Prophecy,
Survey of the Old Testament, Survey of the New
Testament, and The Gospel of Luke.
