Bema is the Greek word for "judgement" where Jesus judges Christians for their good works after their salvation. Works do NOT get anyone to Heaven, they are rewarded for the life they live by the Holy Spirit (2 Corinthians 5:10).

When will Christians give an account to Christ?

At what is called the Bema Seat Judgment. Speaking to Christians, the Scripture admonishes: "For we must all appear before the judgment seat (Bema) 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 Corinthians 5:10."Bema" means tribunal, and this judgment does not judge for salvation, but for the way the Christian conducted His life. The White Throne Judgment separates non-believers from believers for where they will spend eternity. This is found in Revelation 20:11-15.

If judgment seat is called the Bema Seat what is the great white throne judgment?

The Bema Seat and the White Throne of God and the judgment seat and the throne of God are all the same seat. There is one judgment. All mankind will stand before God at the same time: believers and nonbelievers together and all will receive their just reward. Believers will (as they have from the start of their faith in Christ as Savior) be rewarded with eternal life. As believers all our good works come from Christ. Our good works do not come by our power but through His Power of the Holy Spirit within us. God cannot judge believers works or He would be judging Himself. Once we are believers we are Sons of God and like Christ even though we live in sinful bodies here on earth. We are made righteous by Grace and by faith given to us through salvation and justification in Christ. We believers will stand shoulder to shoulder with the nonbelievers before the judgment seat and all will receive their judgment, their just rewards. Amen Now if you have been mislead into believing there are two raptures and two judgments then you need to reread your Bible for yourself and read the words as they are written not as someone has said/taught you what they mean. If someone tries to tell you that you cannot have two different words for the same thing then I would have to put before them all the different names (over 200) for Christ in our Bible. God's Holy Word is built upon visuals and images that match the world around us so we can feel His Holy Word and understand it thus Bema (seat upon a high step) and White Throne of God are two and the same. When you read the "The red ball fell of the table" read exactly what it says and no more... then sit and feel what He is saying and you will know His Truth and not man's corruption of His Truth. Use Bible study and fellowship to be inspired into deeper Biblical understanding but always read the Bible for yourself and decide for yourself. Ask God for His Truth and His Wisdom to be made known to you and you will receive - Psalm 118:8 It is better to take refuge in the LORD than to trust in man. John Nelson Darby invented the "Rapture" idea in 1827 because he too read his own imagination into and between the lines of God's Inspired Words. Don't you think if there really was two raptures (one secret rapture where Jesus only hovers in the sky snatching believers and another rapture where Jesus comes again in the same way He left that every eye will see) St. Paul, St. Peter and all the other desciples of Christ would have taught it before 1827? There is one rapture which is the coming of Christ that every eye shall see and there is one judgment for all mankind at the same time. Grace saved believers not works for the works of a believer belong to Christ by way of His Holy Spirit that lives within us. We will be reward the promised (hoped for) eternal life and dwell with Christ forever


What is the difference between the judgment seat of Christ and the great white throne?

The Judgment Seat of Christ will be for the saved in Christ. The Great white throne will be for the unsaved (died without confessing Christ) Further explanation: "What is the Judgment Seat of Christ / Bema Seat of Christ?"Answer: Romans 14:10-12 says, "For we will all stand before God's judgment seat…so then, each of us will give an account of himself to God." 2 Corinthians 5:10 tells us, "For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, that each one may receive what is due him for the things done while in the body, whether good or bad." In the context of both Scriptures, it is clear that they are referring to Christians, not unbelievers. The Judgment Seat of Christ, therefore, involves believers giving an account of their lives to Christ. The Judgment Seat of Christ does not determine salvation; that was determined by Christ's sacrifice on our behalf (1 John 2:2), and our faith in Him (John 3:16). All of our sins are forgiven and we will never be condemned for them (Romans 8:1). We should not look at the Judgment Seat of Christ as God judging our sins, but rather as God rewarding us for our lives. Yes, as the Scriptures say, we will have to give an account of our lives. Part of this is surely answering for the sins we committed. However, that is not going to be the primary focus of the Judgment Seat of Christ.Question: "What is the Great White Throne Judgment?"Answer: The Great White Throne Judgment is found in Revelation 20:11-15 and is the final judgment prior to the lost being cast into the lake of fire (the place of eternal punishment commonly known as hell). We know from Revelation 20:7-15 that this judgment will take place after the millennium and after Satan, the beast, and the false prophet are thrown into the lake of fire (Revelation 20:7-10). The books that are opened (Revelation 20:12) contain records of everyone's deeds whether they are good or evil, because God knows everything that has ever been said, done, or even thought; and He will reward or punish each one accordingly (Psalm 28:4; Psalm 62:12; Romans 2:6; Revelation 2:23; Revelation 18:6; Revelation 22:12).Also at this time another book is also opened and that is the "book of life" (Revelation 20:12). It is this book that determines whether a person will inherit eternal life with God or receive everlasting punishment in the lake of fire. Although Christians are held accountable for their actions, they are forgiven in Christ and their names were written in the "book of life from the foundation of the world" (Revelation 17:8).

What does propities?

Propitiation as used in Romans means, "Mercy Sea-- Christ is the propitiation, the mercy seat, the meeting place between God and man. In 1 John, propitiation means "an atonement or an expiation." It means that sins have been paid for by the suffering of another. Christ is our advocate, interceding for me, an He himself is the propitiation.
