Chris.
There is a reward awaiting us in Eternity if we have lived the correct kind of life before the Lord. All of us have our “Light”, it means the understanding that we have of God and His Word. Because of our differing stages of spiritual growth it is so important that we do not judge each other but that we encourage each other to go on in the Word of God and grow as we apply it to our lives with the help of the Holy Spirit.
