So then every one of us shall give account of himself to God.
So then (infers the apostle) every one of us shall give account of himself to God. Now, if it be remembered that all this is adduced quite incidentally, to show that CHRIST is the absolute Master of all Christians, to rule their judgments and feelings toward each other while "living," and to dispose of them 'dying,' the testimony which it bears to the absolute divinity of Christ will appear remarkable. On any other view, the quotation to show that we shall all stand before the judgment seat of God would be a strange proof that Christians are all amenable to Christ.
