Are You Living in Light of Eternity?
See interview by Jan Markel with Dr. Mark Hitchcock below
It’s difficult to imagine eternal life. But when you’ve got only one life and you know there is coming a day when you will stand before God, it’s important to consider whether you’re living each day like your life depends on it.
If you’re a Christian, the good news is God’s judgment isn’t about determining your salvation—it’s about rewarding your faithfulness. Salvation cannot be earned—it’s already yours.
In Heavenly Rewards you will uncover fascinating truths about how the life you live today determines your life in eternity. You will…
learn tangible ways you can please the Lord in your everyday living
discover that your labor and sacrifices are never in vain—God is a faithful rewarder
see the benefits of living faithfully and enduring through even the most difficult times
Yes, your faithfulness will be rewarded. God knows the smallest details of your days, and He wants to acknowledge your every act you’ve done for Him.
Living well with an eternal perspective really can change your life—for good.
Jan talks to Dr. Mark Hitchcock about our rewards, and judgment, at the Bema Seat. This determines how we reign in Heaven, the Millennial Kingdom, and in eternity. It is our “final exam.” Find his new book inour online store. Though salvation is by grace, our thoughts, deeds, motives, and more, will still be judged. Find our mobile app at OnePlace.com.

The mission of the VIRGINIA CHRISTIAN ALLIANCE is to promote moral, social and scientific issues we face today from a Biblical point of view. In addition we will refute and oppose, not with hate, but with facts and humor, the secular cultural abuses that have overridden laws and standards of conduct of the past. We will encourage Christians to participate in these efforts through conferences, development of position papers, booklets and tracts, radio/TV spots, newspaper ads and articles and letters-to-the editor, web sites, newsletters and providing speakers for church and civic meetings.
We welcome thoughtful and respectful dialogue from all viewpoints. Comments must remain civil, relevant, and free of profanity, personal attacks, or mockery of Christian faith.
