Romans 14:12 (KJV) So then every one of us shall give account of himself to God.

ACCOUNTABILITY 1. The state of being liable to answer for one's conduct; liability to give account, and to receive reward or punishment for actions.

AS I WAS THINKING OF WHAT TO SPEAK ON THE LORD IMPRESSED ON MY HEART OF HOW EACH AND EVERY PERSON IS TO GIVE AN ACCOUNT IN SOME WAY

I.AS A CHILD THEIR ACCOUNTABLE FOR SOME SMALL THINGS

  1. MAYBE SOME CHORES
  2. MAKE THEIR BEDS
  3. TAKE OUT THE TRASH
  4. FEED THE DOG
  5. AND IF THE CHILD DID GOOD WITH THEIR CHORES THERE IS USUALLY A REWARD
  6. AN ALLOWANCE
  7. SPEND SOME TIME WITH A FRIEND
  8. OR EVEN A SINCERE THANK YOU
  9. BUT IF THE CHILD DOES POORLY THE RECEIVE NOTHING

II.AS A YOUNG TEEN THE ACCOUNT ACCOUNTABILITY IS GREATER

  1. WHY IS THAT? MORE RESPONSIBILITY
  2. YOU GET TO DRIVE A CAR
  3. GO ON DATES
  4. GET PART TIME JOBS
  5. YOUR PARENTS GAIN A TRUST IN YOU
  6. AS LONG AS YOU ARE TRUST WORTHY YOUR REWARDED

III.EVEN AS AN ADULTS WE ARE HELD ACCOUNTABLE

  1. OUR JOBS
  2. OUR FAMILY’S
  3. OUR POSSESSIONS/AND WEALTH

D.IF WE ARE GOOD STEWARDS OF WHAT THE LORD BLESSES US WITH

  1. THE MOST IMPORTANT TIME OF ACCOUNTABILITY IS WHEN WE STAND BEFORE GOD.

Luke 12:19-21 (KJV)

19 And I will say to my soul, Soul, thou hast much goods laid up for many years; take thine ease, eat, drink, [and] be merry.

20 But God said unto him, [Thou] fool, this night thy soul shall be required of thee then whose shall those things be, which thou hast provided?

21 So [is] he that layeth up treasure for himself, and is not rich toward God.

  1. IF ONE CHOOSES THE WORLD OVER CHOOSING THE LORD
  2. YOUR REWARD IS IN THIS WORLD ONLY
  1. SEE WE ALL ARE ACCOUNTABLE FOR THE WAY WE LIVE OUR LIVES
  2. EVERY SOUL BELIEVERS OR UNBELIEVERS WE AT SOME TIME WILL FACE THE LORD AND GIVE AN ACCOUNT OF OUR LIVES
  3. THE CHIRSTAIN

2 Corinthians 5:10 (KJV) For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ; that every one may receive the things [done] in [his] body, according to that he hath done, whether [it be] good or bad.

  1. THE UNSAVED

Revelation 20:11 (KJV) And I saw a great white throne, and him that sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away; and there was found no place for them.

12 And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is [the book] of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works.

13 And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works.

14 And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death.

15 And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.
