AMPLIFIED 2015 | Revelation 3:5 'He who overcomes [the world through believing that Jesus is the Son of God] will accordingly be dressed in white clothing; and I will never blot out his name from the Book of Life, and I will confess and openly acknowledge his name before My Father and before His angels [saying that he is one of Mine].

Bible Question: When is your name written in the Book of Life. |
Bible Answer: Exo 32:32 And now if You will, lift up their sin. And if not, I pray, blot me out from Your book which You have written. Exo 32:33 And Jehovah said to Moses, Whoever has sinned against Me, I will blot him from My book. Of Rev. 13:8 and 17:8: From Robertsons: Hath not been written (ou gegraptai). Perfect passive indicative of grapho, permanent state, stands written. "stands written", or "remains written". The Bible does not say when God wrote His book. It was before the foundation of the world. But everyone who has sinned is blotted from the book. Those who are justified do not have sin counted against them, and are not blotted from the book. So as the redeemed, our names remain in the book. I hope this helps! Love in Christ, Mark |
