It is referred to in his revelation as “the day,” “that day,” and “the day of Christ.” This particular judgment will be a review of the believer’s conduct and service which takes place at the Rapture of the Church. The Judgment Seat of Christ is a dispensational phrase solely found in Paul’s epistles. Since Paul uses the personal pronoun “we” in the above passage and foregoing context, we can safely conclude that he is addressing the members of the Body of Christ. So it is important to rightly divide the Word of truth to ascertain which judgment pertains to us. The themes of redemption and judgment are woven throughout the Scriptures. “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” (II Cor.
In a nutshell, he didn’t want to be a hypocrite. The apostle’s great fear was that when he preached to others he would fail to bring himself into subjection to the things of the Lord, and consequently be disqualified at that day.

On the first day, the participants compete in the 100-meter race, long jump, shot-put, high jump, and 400-meter race. The two-day Decathlon is a rigorous 10-event competition. The Pentathlon is a one-day event which includes the long jump, javelin throw, 200-meter race, discus throw, and 1,500-meter race. But he was probably best known for his remarkable achievements at the 1912 Olympics held in Stockholm, Sweden.Īt the Stockholm games, Jim Thorpe, a Native American Indian, became the first athlete to win both the Pentathlon and the Decathlon. Born near Prague, Oklahoma in 1888, Thorpe began his athletic career at a small school in Carlisle, Pennsylvania where he established himself as an outstanding football player, both at the college and professional level. In the glory days of American sports, when athletes competed for the love of the game or event, Jim Thorpe stands out as perhaps the greatest all-around athlete our country has ever produced.
