— or with gold, silver, and precious stones?
There is:
• One foundation — Jesus Christ
• Different materials — Gold, Silver, Precious Stones
vs. wood, hay, stubble
• A coming fire — testing, not condemning
Works built on Christ’s truth endure.
Works built on self, tradition, or emotion burn.
“If any man’s work abide… he shall receive a reward.”
“If any man’s work shall be burned… he shall suffer loss, but he himself shall be saved.”
Loss of reward—
not loss of salvation.
▪︎ What Is “Gold, Silver, Precious Stones”?
Not flashy activity.
Not religious noise.
But:
• Wisdom from God’s Word
• Rightly dividing the truth (2 Timothy 2:15)
• Serving according to your Pauline calling
• Obedience with pure motives
God doesn’t reward busy work.
He rewards faithful service.
Truth-based service.
Grace-grounded service.
Christ-honoring service.
