There are five texts which deal with a Christian’s potential for receiving crowns (1 Cor. 9:25; 1 Thess. 2:19; 2 Tim 4:8; James 1:12; and 1 Pet 5:4): Text: “And this is what you shall do to them to hallow them for ministering to Me as priests: Take one young bull and two rams without blemish, 2 and unleavened bread, unleavened cakes mixed with oil, and unleavened wafers anointed with oil (you shall make them of wheat flour). 3 You shall put them in one basket and bring them in the basket, with the bull and the two rams.

    A SELECT LIBRARY OF THE NICENE AND POST-NICENE FATHERS OF THE CHRISTIAN CHURCH. EDITED BY PHILIP SCHAFF, D.D., LL.D., PROFESSOR OF CHURCH HISTORY IN THE UNION THEOLOGICAL SEMINARY, NEW YORK. IN CONNECTION WITH A NUMBER OF PATRISTIC SCHOLARS OF EUROPE AND AMERICA. VOLUME IX SAINT CHRYSOSTOM: ON THE PRIESTHOOD; ASCETIC TREATISES; SELECT HOMILIES AND LETTERS; HOMILIES ON THE STATUES T&T CLARK EDINBURGH __________________________________________________ WM. B. EERDMANS PUBLISHING COMPANY GRAND RAPIDS, MICHIGAN PREFACE. __________ With this volume, we begin the Works of St. Chrysostom. It contains a sketch of his life and labors, the book on the priesthood, the letters to Theodore, the catechetical instructions, and a selection of ascetic treatises, special homilies, letters to Olympias and Innocent, and the twenty-one Homilies on the Statues. The translations are entirely new, or thoroughly revised, by the Rev. W. R. W. Stephens, whose services I was so fortunate as to secure. He has written the best biography of St. Chrysostom and is thoroughly at home in his writings. He has taken great pains, with the aid of two friends, the Rev. T. P. Brandram and Rev. R. Blackburn, and is responsible for the whole volume, with the exception of the Prolegomena, which I wrote myself, to correspond with the Prolegomena to the works of St. Augustin. The other volumes of St. Chrysostom in this series will be devoted to his exegetical Homilies on the greater part of the New Testament. Philip Schaff. New York, March, 1889.

  • A Brief Outline of Things to Come Compiled
    A Brief Outline of Things to Come Compiled by Theodore H. Epp Copyright @ 1952 Moody Bible Institute Chicago Chapter Seven - REWARDS - Norman H. Camp "Every man shall receive his own reward according to his own labour" (1 Corinthians 3:8). "And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be" (Revelation 22:12). REWARDS ARE GIVEN for faithful service. Parents reward their children, teachers reward their scholars, and masters reward their servants to encourage and stimulate them in their labors and to express appreciation of the work done. Sometimes rewards are promised in advance, and sometimes they are given as a surprise; but they are based upon the services rendered or the sacrifices made. The character of a reward generally depends upon the generosity and the ability of the one who bestows it. Rewards differ from gifts. A gift is an expression of love and can never be claimed. A reward is bestowed because of labor performed and can always be claimed, if promised. Salvation is a gift; it can never be merited. It is bestowed by grace upon those who confess themselves to be unworthy sinners and receive the Son of GOD as their personal Saviour. Salvation is not a reward for good works, as some seem to think. "For by grace [unmerited favor] are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God" (Ephesians 2:8). But rewards are promised by GOD to those who are saved by grace, and they are given according to the Christians' works after they are saved.

  • The Five Crown Bema Seat Rewards
    dba P.O. Box 142115 New Austin, Texas 78714-2115 Covenant (512) 303-0431 (512) 321-7308 Church Bishop Pastor Eddie E. Willis, Sr. Sunday School Lesson September 20, 2015 THE FIVE CROWN BEMA SEAT REWARDS AND, BEHOLD, I COME QUICKLY; AND MY REWARD IS WITH ME, TO GIVE TO EVERY MAN ACCORDING AS HIS WORK SHALL BE. (Revelation 22: 12) KJV There are five crowns mentioned in scripture which can be given to believers. But these are certainly not the only rewards given in Heaven. The Bible teaches that there will be a “reward system” in Heaven. There are many scripture references to the fact that crowns and rewards in Heaven are for those who overcome; who are victorious. (Philippians 3: 12 – 14, I Corinthians 9: 24 – 27, Revelation 2:7, 11, 17, 26, 3:5, 12, 21, 21:7, St. Matthew 19: 11 – 27 v.17) We are saved not by works (Ephesians 2: 8 – 9, Titus 3: 5 – 8) but it is the gift of God; however, the crowns and rewards are where our works come into play. After being saved by the grace and unmerited favor of God and His Son, Jesus Christ, we must understand that good works are required (Galatians 5: 22 – 26, St. John 15: 16) and will get rewarded. That’s why we are told to store up for ourselves treasure in Heaven. (St. Matthew 6: 19 – 21) We should set our affections on things above, and stop worrying so much about temporal, earthly things and worry about where you’re going to spend eternity.

  • Lesson 16: the Judgement Seat of Christ
    Discipleship – Lesson 16 LESSON 16 - THE JUDGEMENT SEAT OF CHRIST Is There a Judgment Day for Christians ? And For What Will I Be Held Accountable ? The Christian life is a series of choices and decisions we all must answer for some day. The Bible warns us that God’s ways are not our ways (Isa 55:8-9), because man looks on outward physical matters while God looks at the heart attitude and operates in the Spiritual realm. If you are going to serve God effectively, you must take your focus off physical matters and concentrate on the Spiritual. Your life will only make sense and have purpose and meaning as you live in the Spiritual realm, focused upon Eternal matters and issues. This Lesson is designed to keep your focus on these Eternal matters by detailing your final accountability to the Lord Jesus Christ as His servant. I. Understand The Nature Of The “Judgment Seat Of Christ.” A. First, Judgment faces every human being who has ever lived. Proverbs 29:26; Hebrews 9:27 B. There are three kinds of “Judgments” that a Child of God faces. 1st Judgment as a “Sinner” 2nd Judgment as a “Son” 3rd Judgment as a “Servant” HBC Ministries © Copyright 1 Discipleship – Lesson 16 1st Judges us as “Sinners” at the Cross 1. Jesus took our Judgment there. 2. Judgment for Sin took place at Calvary. 3. By placing your faith in Jesus Christ, you do not have to fear Judgment for your Sins, because He took your Judgment upon Himself. 1 Peter 2:24; 2 Corinthians 5:21; Galatians 3:13 2nd Judges us as “Sons” with Chastisement here upon this earth 1.

John Calvin Theologian, Preacher, Educator, Statesman Presented to the Reformed Churches holdin/ the Presbyterian System, on the 400th /<^^^ ^^ '^'^t'CPr Anniversary of the Reformer 5 Birthf [* JUL 20 1809 REV. PHILIP VOLLMER, Ph.D., D.D. Projcssor in the Central Theological Seminary of the Reformed Church, Dayton, Ohio WITH CONTRIBUTIONS FROM Rev. J. I. Good, D.D., and Rev. Wm. H. Roberts, D.D.,LL.D. PHILADELPHIA THE HEIDELBERG PRESS Fifteenth and Race Streets CoPYKKiHT BY The Heidelberg Press 1909 PREFACE The following pages present to the reader a labor of love. Calvin studies, pursued by the author for many years, have created in his mind an ever deepening con- viction that the Genevan Reformer was the instrument specially raised up by God for the purpose of saving and preserving to the world the fruits of the reforma- tion, at a time when these were in imminent danger of being frittered away by incompetent leaders. The great genius of "Wittenberg had died in 1546, with gloomy forebodings as to the future of the work which he and Zwingli had so successfully inaugurated. His prophetic vision did not deceive him. Soon after his death, the storm of opposition became so virulent as to threaten the very existence of Protestantism. A heart-rending wail went up to heaven: "Lord, save us; we perish!" Lead- ers in one compartment of Protestantism, in their anx- iety to save at least a few treasures, went so far as to counsel the lightening of the vessel by throwing over- board the very principles which were essential to the life of the reformation, when they consented to compro- mises of the most dangerous character, offered by pope, emperor and princes.
