The Righteous Judge

By Bible Names of God


      "Henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, shall give me at that day." 2 Timothy 4:8

      In the judgment spoken of here there is a promised reward which Paul speaks of as coming to himself and to all those who love the truth concerning the coming of the Lord. They are to be crowned and the Lord will Himself put the crown upon the head of those who are true to His promises and look for Him -a "crown of righteousness." There are many crowns awaiting the saints. Salvation is a gift, but crowns are for those whose lives have been lived in obedience to the Word of God. His shed blood should be the appeal to us to be willing to lay down our lives for Him.

      Lord Jesus, give us an increasing desire to see Thee and be with Thee. Help us to complete the Body and thus hasten Thy coming. Amen.
