This is a time when believers, who have been raptured into heaven, will stand before their Lord to receive crowns and rewards. See 1 Corinthians 3:10-4:5. This will occur after the rapture and during the tribulation period. The judgment seat of Christ will occur in heaven (it is sometimes called the "day of Christ"). See Philippians 1:10 and 2:16. At the same time there will begin on earth what is called the "day of the Lord." This is the Tribulation Period.
Is this different than the great white throne judgment?
Yes indeed! The judgment seat of Christ occurs immediately after the rapture and is for believers. Believers will receive rewards. Whereas the great white throne judgment is for unbelievers. This latter judgment will destine unbelievers to an eternity in hell. (see Revelation 20:11-15
