义人的劳动趋向于生命: 恶人犯罪的果子 (箴言 10:16)
每个人, 谁生活在这个地球上, 有一天，他将站在全能神的宝座前. At that moment he shall receive his reward, for the works he has done, during his life.
For what is a man profited, 如果他能赢得全世界, 并失去了自己的灵魂? or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul? For the Son of man shall come in the glory of his Father with his angels; and then he shall reward every man according to his works (垫 16:26-27)
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 (2 科尔 5:10)
You have been made righteous, by faith in Jesus Christ
You have been made righteous, by faith in Jesus Christ; by His work and by His blood (加尔 2:16). You cannot become righteous by your own works, and by following the law and its rituals (circumcision, 节日, offerings, sacrifices etc.). Because from the moment, that the New Covenant was established, the Old Covenant was made obsolete (赫布 8:12).
但…. When you have repented and have been made righteous, by faith in Jesus Christ, by His blood, then you shall put of the works of darkness, and do the works of God.
Therefore the works that you shall do, shall correspond with your repentance. You shall no longer walk the way, you walked before you knew Jesus Christ.
But shewed first unto them of Damascus, and at Jerusalem, and throughout all the coasts of Judaea, 然后到外邦人, that they should repent and turn to God, and do works meet for repentance (使徒行传 26:20)
The night is far spent, the day is at hand: let us therefore cast off the works of darkness, and let us put on the armour of light. Let us walk honestly, as in the day; not in rioting and drunkenness, not in chambering and wantonness, not in strife and envying (只读存储器 13:12-13)
不可与暗昧无益的行为相交, 而是责备他们 (弗 5:11)
The reward of the righteous
当你 悔改 并接受耶稣为你的救主和生命的主, it doesn’t stop there. It’s only the beginning of a new life in Jesus Christ. You will have a relationship with Him, and out of your relationship with Him and the Father, 和 your position in Him, you shall do the works of God.
You shall sow in your spirit, and bear the fruit of the Spirit. The righteous; 新的创造, shall walk in righteousness, and shall do the same works as Jesus did.
确实, 确实, 我对你说, He that believeth on me, 我所做的事他也要做; 他将要做比这些更伟大的事; because I go unto my Father (Jn 14:12)
The reward of the righteous will be eternal life.
The reward of the wicked
But you can also choose to live the life, you lived before you 悔改了. You can choose to live like the world and walk after the flesh, 就像他们一样. But the spirit and the flesh, cannot work together, therefore the flesh shall reign over the spirit.
No matter, how many ‘good’ works you do, if they are out of the flesh (旧造), and not out of the spirit (新的创造), then they will be death works.
A person, who says he believes, but lives like the world, belongs to the world. He will sow in the flesh and shall reap the fruit of the flesh.
You can confess with your mouth, 那你 believe in Jesus Christ, but your works will proof if you really believe in Him.
他们自称认识神; 但在作品中他们否认他, 令人厌恶, 并且不听话, 一切善行都被弃绝 (Tit 1:16)
For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also (Jam 2:26)
男人播种什么, 他会收获
Everyone’s end shall be according to their works (2 科尔 11:15). Because what a man sows, 他会收获.
And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works. And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works (牧师 20:12-13)
