2 Corinthians 5:6-10

6Therefore we are always full of courage, and we know that as long as we are alive here on earth we are absent from the Lord –

7for we live by faith, not by sight.

8Thus we are full of courage and would prefer to be away from the body and at home with the Lord.

9So then whether we are alive or away, we make it our ambition to please him.

10For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, so that each one may be paid back according to what he has done while in the body, whether good or evil.
