At the end of the kingdom, after a brief rebellion, the universe will be destroyed (2 Peter 3:9-13 Revelation 20:11). A Bema Seat judgment would also be required after the kingdom because there will be some believers still alive at the end of the kingdom. This means that the reward ceremony would be a continuing activity throughout the millennial kingdom as people continue to become Christians and some die. The fourth option or time the Bema Seat judgment is during the kingdom. If new believers die during the millennial kingdom, it seems they will stand at the Bema Seat immediately. This is the best option and has the strongest biblical support. Following the judgment, the believers enter the Kingdom. So, the Bema Seat judgment occurs after the second coming at the Sheep and Goat Judgment (Matthew 25:31-46).

Verse 15 says that after Christ receives His kingdom, He gives rewards to His followers. In the parable Christ is the king, and the slaves are believers.
Third, Luke 19:11-27 describes a parable about the judgment of believers and unbelievers after the the king receives his kingdom. Therefore do not go on passing judgment before the time, but wait until the Lord comes who will both bring to light the things hidden in the darkness and disclose the motives of men’s hearts and then each man’s praise will come to him from God. Second, 1 Corinthians 4:5 tells us the Bema Seat judgment will occur after Christ comes. 2 Corinthians 5:10 says that believers’ deeds will evaluated to determine if they are good or worthless. First, Romans 14:10 and 2 Corinthians 5:10 refer to the Bema Seat as a time of rewards. This option is the correct one for three reasons. The third option for the timing of the Bema Seat judgment is after the second coming of Christ. Bema Seat Judgment - After the Second Coming Then during the tribulation and millennial kingdom, believers would stand before the Bema Seat judgment in heaven and receive their rewards. The next option or time the Bema Seat judgment might occur is after the rapture when Christ descends and raptures the church. Therefore, we believe it should be rejected.
Therefore, it could be possible that believers stand before Christ immediately after death and receive their rewards. That is, when believers die, they are immediately with Christ. we are of good courage, I say, and prefer rather to be absent from the body and to be at home with the Lord.
Therefore, being always of good courage, and knowing that while we are at home in the body we are absent from the Lord. The apostle Paul states that “absent from the body, present with the Lord.” The first option for when the Bema Seat judgment might occur is immediately after a believer dies.
