Kingdom Study Session #2

Works cannot save us... but, once assured of our own salvation, our lives become eternally meaningful when expended in service to the Great Commission, and our attention to that imperative will be commended and compensated by the Lord Jesus, upon His return to establish His Kingdom. Matthew 16:27: He is coming to pay back. Revelation 22:12: Jesus is coming back with His reward. Dot is life on earth….line is the rest of eternity. What you do in the dot determines destination and compensation in eternity. Kingdom of God : Six Main Events of Your Life 1. Life: Created in the Image of God (body, soul, Spirit; I Thessalonians 5:23) 2. Death: Die physically not spiritually (2 Corinthians 5:8) 3. Destination: Soul goes to heaven or to hell. (John 14:2) You will live forever!!! 4. Resurrection: You will receive a new body (Philippians 3:21) 5. Repayment: Receive reward or repayment based on what you did on earth. (Matthew 11:21-22) a. Bema = Believers (2 Cor. 5:10) b. Great White Throne = non-Believers (Rev. 20:11-15) 6. Eternity: You will live for eternity in the presence or absence of God, reaping the consequences of your beliefs and actions on earth (Matthew 25:46) REAL LIFE IN A REAL PLACE What is God going to reward? Not an exhaustive list in NT but here are some: 1. Seeking Him through prayer: Matthew 6:6 and Hebrews 11:6 2. Submitting to your employer as a faithful steward: Matthew 24:45-47; Colossians 3:22-24 3. Self-denial in His service: Matthew 16:24-27 4. Serving those in need in His Name: Mark 9:41 5. Suffering for His Name and reputation: Luke 6:22-23 6. Sacrifices you make for Him: Luke 6:35 (100fold – Matthew 19:29) 7. Sharing your time, talent and treasures to further the Kingdom (Matthew 6:3-4, I Timothy 6:18-19)
