Verses 13 and 14 state that the unbelieving dead will be judged according to their deeds (works). Rom. God gives us salvation. Rather, God disciplines us as a father disciplines his sons to bring us back into fellowship that we might be conformed to His Son. Eph. 2:12-13), but the decision to serve, and the diligence employed in doing so, are our responsibility and our contribution and God sees this as rewardable. Therefore no one is to act as your judge in regard to food or drink or in respect to a festival or a new moon or a Sabbath day, And Jesus said, For judgment I came into this world, so that those who do not see may see, and that those who see may become blind., Do not judge according to appearance, but judge with righteous judgment.. 6:17, italics added).

Unfortunately, this condition had continued because some of these believers had failed to examine their hearts and judge their sin by honest confession followed by a commitment to deal with it in the power of the Spirit (11:28, 31).

Both body and soul are eternally separated from God in the eternal Lake of Fire, a very real, literal, and eternal place according the Scripture. This book also reveals that even when men do not have the written Word, they have the law of God written in their hearts (Rom. 6:14f; 9:20; 11:10, 18). The loss of salvation, and ultimately the one sin that separates a person from God and confines him to the eternal Lake of Fire, is because of failure to trust in the Lord Jesus Christ for forgiveness and a perfect righteous standing before God.

Zane Hodges has some good thoughts on this concept: Scripture does not teach us to be uninterested in our own happiness or well-being. As it will be shown below, though it is tremendously serious with eternal ramifications, the judgment seat of Christ is not a place and time when the Lord will mete out punishment for sins committed by the child of God. When the Bible speaks of the last judgment, it is not similar to taking a final test to see whether we pass or fail. That type of judgment has already taken place. This last judgment is the public recognition of decisions long-since made. The last judgment is also known as the Great White Throne judgment.

Since the Savior has died for the sin of the world (1 John 2:2), the ultimate issue is the sin of unbelief or rejection of Christ.
