Revelation 20:11,12 The Book Of Life, Book Of Remembrance

For much of Christianity if you don't fit their denomination or creed you aren't saved. Some are so self righteous that they feel their works get others saved. The word says to allow your light to shine so that they that come in can see it. Jesus said the fields were white already to the harvest. Both go against people being added to the Book of Life. So, what does the word of God say about the books?

Revelation 20:11,12

[11] And I saw a great white throne, and him that sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away; and there was found no place for them.

[12] And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works.

John saw that the Book of Life was at the throne as well as other books.

If the Book of Life was already written there should be a trail of when people's names were added.

If this is the case it is by the election of grace and trans issues may not play a part in whether or not a person is saved.

Romans chapter nine speaks of Jacob and Esau with Jacob being chosen and Esau hated before the children ever did good or evil.

Romans chapter 11 verse 2 speaks of those whom God foreknew and in verse 5 that salvation is of a remnant by the election of grace.

This does make it clear that God knows all things. he foreknew who would love him and who would not.

So does scripture foretell about the parts of the Lord's body being foretold?

Psalm 87:1-7

[1] His foundation is in the holy mountains.

[2] The LORD loveth the gates of Zion more than all the dwellings of Jacob.

[3] Glorious things are spoken of thee, O city of God. Selah.

[4] I will make mention of Rahab and Babylon to them that know me: behold Philistia, and Tyre, with Ethiopia; this man was born there.

[5] And of Zion it shall be said, This and that man was born in her: and the highest himself shall establish her.

[6] The LORD shall count, when he writeth up the people, that this man was born there. Selah.

[7] As well the singers as the players on instruments shall be there: all my springs are in thee.

The above scripture does indeed bear witness that the Lord wrote the people's names in his Book before they ever were born. Is there another witness?

Psalm 139:15,16

[15] My substance was not hid from thee, when I was made in secret, and curiously wrought in the lowest parts of the earth.

[16] Thine eyes did see my substance, yet being unperfect; and in thy book all my members were written, which in continuance were fashioned, when as yet there was none of them

Once again the members of his body were written in the book before they ever were.

But what about the other books?

Malachi 3:16,17

[16] Then they that feared the LORD spake often one to another: and the LORD hearkened, and heard it, and a book of remembrance was written before him for them that feared the LORD, and that thought upon his name.

[17] And they shall be mine, saith the LORD of hosts, in that day when I make up my jewels; and I will spare them, as a man spareth his own son that serveth him.

There is a Book of Remembrance of those who fear him and speak of him and think of him.

Those who do not deny the Lord but think and speak of him have such things written of them as a memorial.

But what about those who end up falling away? Paul spake of those who fell away and in 2 Thessalonians 2: 2-12 shows that there shall be a great falling away before the Lord returns.

Is this also seen in the old testament?

Psalm 69:26-28

[26] For they persecute him whom thou hast smitten; and they talk to the grief of those whom thou hast wounded.

[27] Add iniquity unto their iniquity: and let them not come into thy righteousness.

[28] Let them be blotted out of the book of the living, and not be written with the righteous.

It seems that the longer the Lord tarries in his return the more people persecute him who is smitten and blotted out.

Who is smitten of God?

Isaiah 53:1-4

[1] Who hath believed our report? and to whom is the arm of the LORD revealed?

[2] For he shall grow up before him as a tender plant, and as a root out of a dry ground: he hath no form nor comeliness; and when we shall see him, there is no beauty that we should desire him.

[3] He is despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were our faces from him; he was despised, and we esteemed him not.

[4] Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted.

[5] But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.

We can see many falling away today as 2nd Thessalonians says. They preach today of money and riches and their own glory and living the good life now. They forget that the Lord said that we must be willing to hate our life in this world to keep it unto life eternal. They no longer teach that the Lord who knows all things already knows who is and who is not written in the Book of Life. They no longer teach that to fear the Lord and think about him and speak one to another of his glory are written in a Book of Remembrance.

many that have looked down their noses at transgender people may have already fallen away themselves. Many that have coveted money and houses and their own glory while saying others were damned may already be blotted out of the Book of the Living.

Does being transgender mean you are filthy and damned?

That is not in my place to say.

The word of God Almighty that I read shows me that the Lord already foreknew whom would love him regardless of whether their life was easy or a living hell and wrote their names in the Book of Life.

In like manner he writes every word they speak about the greatness of his glory as the only begotten of the Father in a Book of Remembrance that will be opened at the judgment seat of Christ.

On that day many that have lived haughty lives will hear the word I never knew you. Many that some said never stood a chance will hear Well done thou good and faithful servant. Enter into the joy of the Lord.

Jacob and Esau were foretold.

As far as I am concerned there may be some transgendered individuals that are written in the Book of Life.

The important point is to not be blotted out.

wonderful to see that the Holy Spirit guides those who would fear, worship and love as well as emulate the kindness and joy Jesus brought to tax collecters and sinners alike.
