The Book of Life!

The Book of Life!
- Pastor Ashish Mathews

Revelation 20:15
And anyone not found written in the Book of Life was cast into the lake of fire.

God has books. One of those books is called the Book of Life, also known as the Lamb's book of life. It's the book of eternal life.

The word of God says, anyone whose name was not found written in the Book of Life was thrown into the lake of fire. How can a person have his or her name in the book of life? What should a person do? You can only have your name in the Book of Eternal Life if you have eternal life, which is the life and the nature of God. John 3.16 says, For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. If you have believed in Jesus and have received His finished works, you have received eternal life into your spirit. Right this moment, you possess eternal life! 1 John 5:11‭-‬12 says, And this is the testimony: God has given us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. Whoever has the Son has life; whoever does not have the Son of God does not have life. Whoever has not received Jesus as their Lord and Saviour has not received eternal life and since they have not received eternal life, their names are not written in the Book of Life and therefore they will be thrown into the lake of fire. It's only in Jesus, that our sins are forgiven and we receive eternal life. He who rejects Christ, rejects the forgiveness of sins and rejects eternal life and therefore his unforgiven sins and His wicked nature will take him to the lake of fire. This is extremely serious!

Friend, rejoice that your names are written in the Book of Life and at the same time pray for your near, dear and loved ones so that they too will receive in Jesus the forgiveness of sins and eternal life. The lake of fire is a horrible place to be, a place of unending suffering and eternal torment. Intercede! As we pray and intercede, let's ask the Lord of the harvest to release labourers into His harvest field so that the eyes of the unbelievers will be opened and they will know and believe the truth and escape the fires of hell. Enjoy the life of God! Manifest the life of God! Win souls! Go on with Jesus!
