2 Corinthians Chapter 5

2 Corinthians 5:9

co2 5:9

labour

(Greek, "philotimeomai", means "are ambitious").

2 Corinthians 5:10

co2 5:10

For we must all appear

The judgment of the believer's works, not sins, is in question here. These have been atoned for, and are "remembered no more forever" (Heb 10:17) but every work must come into judgment, (Mat 12:36); (Rom 14:10); (Gal 6:7); (Eph 6:8); (Col 3:24); (Col 3:25). The result is "reward" or "loss" (of the reward), "but he himself shall be saved". (Co1 3:11-15).

This judgment occurs at the return of Christ (Mat 16:27); (Luk 14:14); (Co1 4:5); (Ti2 4:8); (Rev 22:12).
