(1 Corinthians 3:10-15) Soon we will see Jesus. There are two main events that believers in heaven will experience, after the rapture of the church, while the tribulation is taking place on earth. Each of us should be getting ready to meet God! (0971250321) ----more----  What Is Heaven? Do you ever think about what's going on in heaven? There's so many things we do know about heaven and there are many things frankly we don't know about heaven.  Heaven During the Tribulation One of the things that is very intriguing to me is what's going to go on in heaven while the tribulation is going on earth. The Lord is going to spare His church from that great tribulation. He has special things in store for us, great things planned. When we began our study most recently about the tribulation, we saw, really from an earthly perspective, what's going on with the Antichrist, here on this planet, but let's look at the same period of time, from Heaven's perspective. Basically there are two big things going on that you have to look forward to and should be thinking about. When it comes to the Lord Jesus returning for us, we're called away. We meet Him in the clouds, and then what, during that seven year period, what's going on?  The Judgment Seat of Christ The first thing that's gonna happen is you're going to stand before the Lord. It's commonly referred to in scripture as the judgment seat. Of Christ immediately after the rapture, we're going to be standing before the Lord, or should I say we're gonna be bowing before the Lord. As a matter of fact, in Revelation 4:1, the door opens in heaven and the voice says, "Come up hither." And in that very same chapter in (chapter four verse four and verse ten) the believers are seen casting their crowns at the feet of Jesus, kneeling before the throne. So we know that one of the first things that's going to  happen, though we don't know all the details of it, is we're going to stand before the Lord at what is called the judgment seat of Christ. Paul's Teachings on the Judgment Seat It's very interesting to me that the Apostle Paul seemed to talk more about this to the church at Corinth, than any other church. Let me share what I'm talking about. First Corinthians chapter three, beginning in verse number ten, says this, "10 According to the grace of God which is given unto me, as a wise masterbuilder, I have laid the foundation, and another buildeth thereon. But let every man take heed how he buildeth thereupon. 11 For other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ." He said, we're in a spiritual building program. Be careful how you build. And then he says this in verse 12, "12 Now if any man build upon this foundation gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, stubble; 13 Every man’s work shall be made manifest: for the day shall declare it, because it shall be revealed by fire; and the fire shall try every man’s work of what sort it is. 14 If any man’s work abide which he hath built thereupon, he shall receive a reward. 15 If any man’s work shall be burned, he shall suffer loss: but he himself shall be saved; yet so as by fire." He says that there's coming a day that is going to declare the truth about your life.I don't know about you, but that's thought-provoking to me. The day shall declare it. It's not about your salvation in this passage. You don't go into the fire, but your works do. You are spared the fire. Praise God. I'm not going to hell because I've trusted Christ as my personal Savior, but though my soul cannot be lost, I can lose rewards. On that day, anything that was not of eternal value was gonna be burned up. I wonder, when we stand before God someday, what will we have? I'm thinking now of the old hymn: must I go empty-handed? Must I meet my savior so? Not one soul, with which to greet Him? Must I empty-handed go?" I wonder if we'll have anything when we stand before the Lord on that day. He goes on in 1 Corinthians, listen to these words in chapte
