Join Pastors Ben Blakey, Stephen Duwe, and Jonathan Broadworth on Due North as they tackle a challenging and often misunderstood biblical question: Do our actions have eternal consequences? While salvation is by grace alone through faith alone, Scripture clearly teaches that believers will one day stand before Christ and have their lives evaluated. In this episode, the pastors examine what the Bible says about eternal rewards, varying degrees of judgment, and how these truths should shape the way Christians live today. Through three key biblical truths, three common objections, and three practical applications, they provide a thoughtful and Christ-centered discussion that encourages believers to live with eternal perspective, faithful perseverance, and a desire to please God above all else.
