Question on judgment

[kvanlaan]

Quick question on 'standing in judgment'.

If we, as regenerated believers, stand in judgment one day before His throne, what will it be for? Our conduct post-conversion? It does not stand to reason that it will be for our repented and forgiven sins; so then for what?

It's my understanding that when we stand in judgment, since we will be found in Christ, our sins will have been cleansed by His blood, and His righteousness will have been accounted to us. Since we rest on the work of Christ, we are going to be judged holy and accepted into the glorious presence of God.
