       Hebrews 4:13 tells us, “And no creature is hidden from his sight, but all are naked and exposed to the eyes of him to whom we must give account” (ESV). We also read in Revelation 20:15, “And if anyone's name was not found written in the book of life, he was thrown into the lake of fire” (ESV). Only believers in Jesus Christ get to go into Heaven. So, in order to supplement the salvation that we all are going to receive, as Christians, and the fact that we are with God forever, God himself is going to give most of us a variety of rewards that we have gained by doing right and being obedient in this life. It should also be noted that the longer we’ve worked for Christ, the more relationships we are going to have, both with those we worked alongside and those whom we partook in helping them come to Christ. Jesus will evaluate our works at what is called the Judgment Seat of Christ. These works will be evaluated on whether they were done with right motive, or whether we did them with an ulterior motive, like the praise of our fellow brothers and sisters or even just to be seen by others.
