flesh reap corruption, but he who sows to the
Spirit will of the Spirit reap everlasting life.”

judgment seat of Christ, that each one may
receive the things done in the body,
according to what he has done, whether
good or bad.”
1 Corinthians 3:11-15
“For no other foundation can anyone lay
than that which is laid, which is Jesus Christ.

with gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay,
straw,
each one’s work will become manifest; for
the Day will declare it, because it will be
revealed by fire; and the fire will test each
one’s work, of what sort it is.”
“If anyone’s work which he has built on
it endures, he will receive a reward.
If anyone’s work is burned, he will suffer
loss; but he himself will be saved, yet so as
through fire.”

with Me, to give to every
one according to his work.

Omega, the Beginning and
the End, the First and the
Last.”

“Do not lay up for yourselves treasures
on earth where moth and rust destroy and
where thieves break in and steal;
but lay up for yourselves treasures in
heaven, where neither moth nor rust
destroys and where thieves do not break in
and steal.
For where your treasure is, there your
heart will be also.”
MY FRIEND
My friend, I stand in judgment now,
And feel that you’re to blame somehow.
On Earth I walked with you day by day,
And never did you point the way.
You knew the Lord in truth and glory,
But never did you tell the story.
My knowledge then was very dim;
You could have led me safe to Him.
Though we lived together here on Earth
You never told me of the second birth.
And now I stand this day condemned,
Because you failed to mention Him.
You taught me many things that’s true;
I called you “friend” and trusted you.
But I learn now that it’s too late,
And you could have kept me from this fate.
We walked by day and talked by night,
And yet you showed me not the light.
You let me live, and love, and die,
You knew I’d never live on high.
Yes, I called you “friend” in life,
And trusted you through joy and strife,
And, yet, on coming to this dreadful end
I cannot, now, call you “my friend.”
