I have three questions here, and I'm sort of perplexed of how to answer them.
1. If it's God's grace helping us overcome then why do we still receive crowns at the Bema Seat of Christ.
2. If it's sanctification by grace and not works then how are we (earning) crowns.
3. Do the crowns represent (how) we use God's grace.
Crown 1 - Crown Of Righteousness— Loved The Lord's Appearing - 2 Tim 4:8
Crown 2 - Incorruptible Crown— Disciplined Bodies / Self-Control - 1 Cor 9:25-27
Crown 3 - Crown Of Life— Endured Patiently Thru Trials - James 1:12, Rev 2:10
Crown 4 - Crown Of Glory— Godly Leaders Who Were Examples To Flock - 1 Pet 5:2-4
Crown 5 - Crown Of Rejoicing— Soul Winners Crown - 1 Thess 2:19, Dan 12:3
