Key Verse

“And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire” (Revelation 20:15).

Text — Revelation 20:11-15

Message

Several books have been written and some tagged as “best-selling”, “greatest”, “famous”, “popular”, etc. Of Course, some of them contain stories and/or information beneficial to our earthly living. But our text today reveals that there is an all-important book, the book of life, which contains the records of those who will enter heaven – a book for eternity. Billy Graham once referred to it as a supremely important book.

At the judgment seat, everyone that ever lived, small or great of every class, will be judged. Our text says there are two sets of books, one contains many books, while the other, the book of life, is just one. And anyone whose name is not found in the book of life will be thrown into the lake of fire. The book of life is a record of people who have given their lives to the Lord Jesus and accepted Him as their Saviour. These are those who have been spiritually converted. It is obedience to God that determines whose names should be written therein. Have you been converted? Is your name in this all-important book?
