The Judgement Seat  when Jesus Christ returns to set up God’s Kingdom, everyone who knows and understands the  Gospel message will be called to meet him and will be judged by him. Those who have been  faithful to him in their lives will be given a place in the Kingdom, those who have been unfaithful will  be rejected by the Lord and will be sent away to die.  The basis of the Judgement will be how we have put the Gospel into practice in our lives  (Romans 2:16) and Jesus will be particularly interested in how we have used our tongue.  “I tell you, on the day of judgment people will give account for every careless word they  speak,  for by your words you will be justified, and by your words you will be condemned."   Matthew 12:36-37  Jesus will not listen to what other people say about us; amongst other things he will judge us on  what we have said about other people, on how we have used our tongue. If our words are ‘careless’; if  they are thoughtless or hurtful then we shall have to answer for them to Jesus.
