by Rev. Bert M. Farias(Author)
The primary basis of all judgment concerning the deeds done in our bodies is our motives. Our values determine our motives, and our motives are the real reason behind our thoughts, words, and deeds. Only God can see the true motives of every man's heart.
Almost all human beings have something to hide. Nearly everyone twists words, events, and situations to their own advantage, to place themselves in the best possible light. Men often have ulterior motives and hidden agendas. This is sin and a form of hiding.
Adam and Eve first hid from the presence of the Lord in the garden after they had fallen. God asked them why they ate the forbidden fruit. 'Why?' is the question God chose to ask them. And one day when true Christians stand before the judgment seat of Christ, this is the question that shall reveal our hearts.
Purity of Heart will prepare you for that day and spare you loss at the judgment seat of Christ so that you may receive your full reward. What is done in pure love, by the leading of the Spirit, and for the glory and honor of God shall reap the fullest rewards.
