. Several times “book” is used figuratively, as in the expressions “your [God’s] book” “book of remembrance” and “book of life” It appears that these are all basically the same, that is, they are all God’s “book” of remembrance with a view to rewarding with eternal life (in heaven or on earth) the ones whose names are written in it. God’s “book” evidently receives names conditionally, since the Scriptures indicate that a person’s name can be ‘wiped out’ of it. (Ex 32:32, 33; Re 3:5) So only if a person continues faithful is his name retained in the book.

Several references are made to “the scroll of life” or to God’s “book.” It evidently contains the names of all those who, because of their faith, are in line to receive the grant of everlasting life either in heaven or on earth. It contains the names of Jehovah’s servants “from the founding of the world,” that is, the world of redeemable mankind. So righteous Abel’s is apparently the first name written on “the scroll.”

The writing of a person’s name in “the book of life” does not predestine that one to eternal life. His name’s remaining there depends on his obedience. Thus Moses pleaded with Jehovah for Israel: “Now if you will pardon their sin, and if not, wipe me out, please, from your book that you have written.” Jehovah answered: “Whoever has sinned against me, I shall wipe him out of my book.” (Ex 32:32, 33) This indicates that the list of names in “the book” would undergo changes because of disobedience on the part of some, their names being ‘wiped’ or ‘blotted’ out from “the book.”

The great crowd, whose names are also written in the book of life, will come out of the great tribulation alive. By exercising faith throughout Jesus’ Millennial Reign and during the decisive test that follows, these will be rewarded with life everlasting in Paradise on earth. (Daniel 12:1; Psalm 37:29) Their names will then remain indelibly written in the book of life.

Those names have been written in that book since before time began. God in His infinite wisdom, knew from the beginning
what names would be in that book. Throughout eternity, God has looked with Love at every name in that book.
We anticipate the joy of meeting our Savior.
I believe Christ Jesus wants to meet us, even more.
Praise The Holy Lamb Of God !!!
God Bless You....Peace.

They have been genuine Christains who knew they have been written interior the e book of life then, as all of us be attentive to we are as we communicate. Holy Spirit teaches all Christians to place their wish in God's supplies you by way of His Son, Jesus. This scripture isn't pertaining to a "little flock", besides the undeniable fact that it says "ALL are judged". Jesus observed a distinctive flock, the Gentiles. If Jehovah's Witnesses have been properly suited, they could have stopped taking the trademarks in 1914, as Jesus had arrived in accordance to their lore. Jehovah's witnesses won't be able to be present day in that e book of life, till they get carry of Jesus as their savior, not a company. they say Jesus will in no way return to the earth returned, in assessment with the Bible scriptures that tell Christians Jesus will return precisely as He left. he's coming, and that i'm humbly grateful that He supplies us the wish of being in that e book of life.

Your name is written in the book of life whenever you admit to God that you are not perfect and that you are a sinner. You have to tell God that you believe in him and that you believe that he sent his son Jesus Christ to Earth to save us from death by acting as a sacrifice to pay for our sin debt. Once you tell God this and mean it in your heart(not just say some words without meaning)then you are in the book of life and will be going to Heaven. The judgment is for sending people away to hell and to give rewards to the saved ones based on how they lived for Christ.

Our names are already written in it. It is when someone who dies without being born again through Christ that one's name is blotted or erased from the book of life. God is a fair God. He fairly has everyone written in the book and gives them chance after chance after chance to accept His free gift of salvation until they die. Psalms 69:28 Blotted means to be erased. Something has to be written for it to be erased.

Our name was written in the Book of Life- the VERY second we asked Jesus into our heart.

The 1000 year reign is symbolic - it represents the Church Age.
