Mary Magdalene: Bema Seat of Christ 2

Mary Magdalene was a faithful follower of Jesus.

 He had mercy on her when He delivered her of 6 horrible demons.  She never left His side after that.  She was an amazing woman who gave Jesus her whole life. She supported Him and His ministry with her money.  Even in His death she could not bear to be separated from Him.  Jesus rewarded her.  He came to her first when He resurrected from the dead.  She was the very first messenger Jesus commissioned to tell He had risen.  Mary Magdalene honored Jesus with precious building materials of her time, her money, her love, her devotion, her words, her obedience.  
She was faithful, the Apostle to the Apostles. 

Mary Magdalene was a woman who lived her life passionately devoted to her Healer, Jesus.  (Gospels)  She never left Jesus' side.  Even in his death on the cross she could not bear to be away from Him.  She was there at His burial.  When Messiah arose from the dead, He came to her first of all.  She had been crying at the garden tomb, looking for Him.  Jesus assigned her the work of being His first messenger of the resurrected Messiah.  What a great honor.  Great will be her reward at the Bema Seat of Christ.
