Q. What must all men do to prevent their names from being blotted out of the Book of Life? “ He that overcometh, the same shall be clothed in white raiment; and I will not blot out his name out of the book of life, but I will confess his name before my Father, and before his angels.” Re 3:5
Q. What promised sacrifice made it possible for Peter’s name to be written in the book of Life from the foundation of the world? “ And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.” Re 13:8
“ Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold, from your vain conversation received by tradition from your fathers; But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot: Who verily was foreordained before the foundation of the world, but was manifest in these last times for you,” 1Pe 1:18-20
Jesus Christ promised to be our sacrifice and substitute for our sins at the beginning of the world. At this time the Book of Life was written placing with in its pages the names of all men for whom the Lamb of God would shed His blood.
Q. Does the Bible anywhere mention any names ever being written in the Book of Life after the beginning of time or at “the foundation of the world?” Answer: No. According to the Bible all names that will ever be found in the book of life were placed there at the foundation of the world. There is no record of any names being added to the book after the time it was written. There is no scriptural evidence that names have been added since the “foundation of the world.” However there is clear evidence that shows that there are names placed in the Book of Life that have been blotted out.
Christ was “foreordained before the foundation of the world” to be the “Lamb of God which taketh away the sins of the world.” 1 Peter 1:20, John 1:29. “God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself,” 2 Corinthians 5:19. God knows all things even things not yet done the things still in our future. The Creator of all life is “the high and lofty One that inhabiteth eternity.” Isaiah 57:15. In the Book of Life God is “Declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times the things that are not yet done” Isaiah 46:10. He is declaring the names of all those whom would ever be born among the children of men long before they would ever breath there first breath. ““ Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee; and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations.” Jeremiah 1:5.
God knows each child of His creation intimately. “But the very hairs of your head are all numbered.” Matthew 10:30. “But now thus saith the LORD that created thee, O Jacob, and he that formed thee, O Israel, Fear not: for I have redeemed thee, I have called thee by thy name; thou art mine. For Jacob my servant’s sake, and Israel mine elect, I have even called thee by thy name: I have surnamed thee, though thou hast not known me. Isaiah 43:1; 45:4. The Bible depicts Christ as the “Good Shepherd” calling after His sheep. “The sheep hear his voice: and he calleth his own sheep by name, and leadeth them out.” John 10:3.
“ What man of you, having an hundred sheep, if he lose one of them, doth not leave the ninety and nine in the wilderness, and go after that which is lost, until he find it?” Luke 15:4 Christ the Good Shepherd is seeking all that are lost and sick seeking to bring healing and everlasting life to “whosoever will”. “ When Jesus heard it, he saith unto them, They that are whole have no need of the physician, but they that are sick: I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.” Mark 2:17 All those that are lost and sick because of sin He came to save. He knows each one and calls them all by name. He is right now calling you by name too. “ Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me.” Revelation 3:20 |

Q. How many souls did the “Lamb of God shed His blood for?” “ The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world.” Joh 1:29 “ And he is the propitiation for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world.” 1Jo 2:2 “ And said unto the woman, Now we believe, not because of thy saying: for we have heard him ourselves, and know that this is indeed the Christ, the Saviour of the world.” Joh 4:42 “ To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation.” 2Co 5:19 |
“The Lamb slain from the foundation of the world” died “for the sins of the whole world.” To every soul He shed His precious blood he did foreknow by name. “ For whom he did foreknow, he also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of his Son, that he might be the firstborn among many brethren.” Ro 8:29 . This was God’s original purpose in making Adam “the firstborn among his brethren.” “ And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.” Ge 1:26 After the fall of Adam all men had received a sinful nature, fallen from the glorious image of Christ, of which they were originally created. “ For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;” Ro 3:23 . Christ did not come to save the Righteous but sinners. All have sinned; hence Christ came to save all mankind. “Whosoever will.” “ And the Spirit and the bride say, Come. And let him that heareth say, Come. And let him that is athirst come. And whosoever will, let him take the water of life freely.” Revelation 22:17 |

Q. To how many was the Gospel to be preached?
“ And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.” Mark 16:15
“9 And I say unto you, Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you. 10 For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.” Luke 11:9-10 The Gospel is freely offered to all that “dwell on the earth, and to every nation, and kindred, and tongue, and people,” Revelation 14:6. “ For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.” Romans 10:13. |
