[small voice in the wilderness]

Ah, MarkBsnr. Yes believers will be judged. For rewards, not salvation. You see, salvation comes first, then works. "For we are his workmanship, created IN CHRIST JESUS UNTO GOOD WORKS, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.

Unbelievers will be judged, as Paul states: "In the day when God shall judge the secrets of men by Jesus Christ ACCORDING TO MY GOSPEL." (Rom. 2:16). It may be incumbent on those who THINK they are following the gospel, to know just what the " MY GOSPEL" Paul is referring to..

[MarkBsnr]

Ah, MarkBsnr. Yes believers will be judged. For rewards, not salvation. You see, salvation comes first, then works. "For we are his workmanship, created IN CHRIST JESUS UNTO GOOD WORKS, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.

This does not say salvation occurs first. It says that we are God's workmanship created in Jesus (as Creator of all) which should be obvious. We are all created in His image. This does not say salvation before works.

The order of Judgement is also our particular Judgement first (which some Protestants think that they can get out of), and then the general Judgement in which the goats and the sheep are separated. There is not any amount of SS evidence to say that things are otherwise.
