'For what is our hope, or joy, or crown of rejoicing? Is it not even you in the presence of our Lord Jesus Christ at His coming? (1 Thessalonians 2:19)
More Christians have died for their faith in God in the last century than in all the other ones put together. They shall obtain the Crown of Life! Furthermore how often is there an encouragement to look forward to His return and to live lives of purity?
Johnson, C.G. The account which we must give Regular Baptist Press Illinois 1990
King James Version Marked Reference Study Bible General Editor Jeffery, G.R Zondervan Publishing House Grand Rapids 1998

Fifthly the Crown of Life for Christian Martyrs.
Firstly there is the Crown of Glory for faithful Servants.
Thirdly the Crown of Righteousness for those who love His return.
Fourthly the Incorruptible Crown for lives of purity.
Bridges, M. & Thring, G. Crown Him with many Crowns 1874
Secondly the Crown of rejoicing for soul winners.
'And when the Chief Shepherd appears, you will receive the crown of glory that does not fade away.' (1 Peter 5:4)
One may feel a little uncomfortable with the idea of parading around a heavenly rostrum with crowns in celestial grandeur here is some good news. The reasoning behind hymns such as ‘crown Him with many crowns’ correspond with the throne room in heaven found in Revelation Chapter four. The twenty four elders cast their crowns before Him and in so doing, greatly glorify God.
'Finally there is a crown laid up for me the crown of righteousness, which the LORD, the righteous judge, will give to me on that Day, and not to me only but also to all who have loved His appearing.' (2 Timothy 4:
'And everyone who competes for a prize is temperate in all things. Now they do it to obtain a perishable crown, but we for an imperishable crown.' (1 Corinthians 9v25)
Here then is a short list of how these crowns may be attained and also the purpose of acquiring them.
'Do not fear any of those things that you are about to suffer. Indeed the devil is about to throw some of you into prison, that you may be tested, and you will have tribulation ten days. Be faithful until death, and I will give you the crown of life.' (Revelation 2 v10)
