Subject: Is your name in the book?
Revelation 20: 11-15 KJV
Pastor W. Ray Small
Solid Rock Community Church
Sabbath Service
“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. 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. And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works. And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death. And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.” Revelation 20:11-15 KJV
When you go on a trip you have to make a reservation that goes into a book and receive a confirmation number.
Sadly, a lot of people make reservations but don’t get a confirmation number. How sad will it be to make reservations and not get a confirmation number. To arrive somewhere and find out you made a reservation but your name got blotted out because you didn’t get a confirmation number.
How do you make sure your name gets in The Book (The book of LIFE)?
Obey the will of God. Follow the instructions God has given us in the B.I.B.L.E.
(Basic Instructions Before Leaving Earth)
There are many people who are not saved in the church because we don’t do what the word of God says.
Revelation 20:10 KJV says,
“And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are, and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever.”
“But the children of the kingdom shall be cast out into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.”
Matthew 8:12 KJV
“Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels:”
Matthew 25:41 KJV
“And these shall go away into everlasting punishment: but the righteous into life eternal.”
Matthew 25:46 KJV
There can’t be anymore shaking and faking in order to get your name in The Book Of Life!!!
You have to live holy lives. You have to accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior.
It is good to read the instructions!! Every opportunity you get you must read the word of God - the instructions.
We have gotten so conditioned to being relaxed and lazy in the church. The best thing we can do is stand up and pray instead of letting the devil make us fall asleep on Jesus.
We shouldn’t do anything that will separate us from the love of God.
Make preparations.
You can’t live any kind of way and expect to make it to heaven. It’s time to live all you know how. You can’t do these things:
“Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.”
1 Corinthians 6:9-10 KJV
You have to change as this scripture continues to explain:
“And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God.”
1 Corinthians 6:11 KJV
God has better for you. You don’t have to sin. It’s a choice. Choose this day whom you serve yourself servants to.
For God you should live and for God you should die.
Where is your citizenship? If your citizenship hasn’t been transferred from this world you need to go reevaluate your life.
Let’s get right church!!!
If your name is in The Book?
