2 Corinthians 5:7

5 Now He who has prepared us for this very thing is God, who also ^ahas given us the Spirit as a guarantee.

6 So we are always confident, knowing that while we are at home in the body we are absent from the Lord.

7 For ^awe walk by faith, not by sight.

8 We are confident, yes, ^awell pleased rather to be absent from the body and to be present with the Lord.

The Judgment Seat of Christ

9 Therefore we make it our aim, whether present or absent, to be well pleasing to Him.

10 ^aFor we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, ^bthat each one may receive the things done in the body, according to what he has done, whether good or bad.

11 Knowing, therefore, ^athe terror of the Lord, we persuade men; but we are well known to God, and I also trust are well known in your consciences.
