That is very true, because He would have produced them through you (Phil.2).

However, a Christian is suppose to have rewards to show for the time he spent on earth, that is why God has five crowns for those who accomplish what He wants for them.

There is a soul winning crown (Phil.4:1), a Pastor's crown (1Pe.5:4), a crown for awaiting Christ's return (2Tim.4:8), a martyr's crown (Rev.2:10) and the crown for overcoming the temptations of life (1Cor.9:25).

Every Christian should have at least three crowns to cast at the feet of His Lord.
