Consider the eternal implications of these words penned by the Apostle Paul as recorded in 2nd Cor. 5:10 - "For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ so that every one may receive the things done in his body, according to that he has done, whether it be good or bad". There is no escaping from HIS judgments be it at the Great White Throne for the non-redeemed (Rev.20:11) or at the Bema Seat of Judgment for Christians (1st Cor.3:13-15). Absolutely everyone will be judged by HIM in absolute fairness & finality. Most likely, Jesus will be weeping while HE declares an undesirable verdict for those who deserve it. We speculate this from knowing the great compassions demonstrated in Jesus while on earth. Most likely, HE will go to great lengths to explain how much HE did to reach out to those resisting HIM. Yet, even though HE truly loves all peoples; HE is not going to allow sinful individuals to enter the place of reward for those who have been faithful for a lifetime to HIM. If HE did that, they could pollute it.
