Who will appear before the Bema seat for reward?
Believers, specifically the children of God and members of the body of Christ, will appear before the Bema seat for reward. The Bema is the Greek term for the judgment seat, derived from the Olympics, and it is not a judgment for heaven or hell but for reward.
Les explains that in the last program they discussed believers coming before the judgment seat of Christ, the Bema seat. The Bema is simply the Greek word for the judgment seat, originating from the Olympics where the judges' seat was called the Bema seat. He notes the term 'judgment seat of Christ' can be unfortunate because it is not a judgment for heaven or hell, but a seat of judging for reward. Those who are children of God, especially members of the body of Christ, will come before the Bema seat one day for reward.
