2 Corinthians

2 Corinthians 5:10–11

10For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, that each one may receive his due for the things done in the body, whether good or bad.

11Therefore, since we know what it means to fear the Lord, we try to persuade men. What we are is clear to God, and I hope it is clear to your conscience as well.
