For example, when we write our name on a legal document, it means something, no matter if we are endorsing a check, signing a contract, or signing a car title. If were a government employee at a high-security government installation, we have to first identify ourselves as to who we are, and then we have to have our names written on a pre-approved list. If we are not on the list, we cannot enter the facility.<\/p>\n<p>When God writes our name, it has everlasting consequences. As Christians, we need to make certain that God has our names written on His pre-approved list. If our names are not found on that list, we will not be able to enter through the gates into the heavenly city (Revelation 22:14).<\/p>\n<p>Let&#8217;s open the Scriptures with regard to the above thoughts:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>God wants to write our names in the Book of Life and does not want to blot it out (2 Peter 3:9, Revelation 3:5).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Names not written in the Book of Life are enemies of God (Psalms 69:28, Revelation 13:8,17:8).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>God keeps accurate records of our name and what is connected to that name (Revelation 20:11-15). If our names are not written in the Book of Life we will be cast into everlasting torment (Matthew 25:46).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>If our names are written in the Book of Life God will deliver and save us eternally (Daniel 12:1, Isaiah 4:3, Revelation 21:27).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>We see references to people who had their names written in Gods wonderful book (Luke 10:17-20, Philippians 4:3).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>How do we get our name on the pre-approved list in God&#8217;s book? (Matthew 7:21-24, James 1:21-25, 2 Peter 1:5-11, 1 John 5:1-5). To have our names written on the list, we must have an obedient faith (Hebrews 11:6; Romans 6:17-18), motivating us to become a New Testament Christian.<\/p>\n<p>Note that it is God who writes our name in the book and the One who can blot us out of it (Exodus 32:30-33).<\/p>\n<p>The question is, Is My Name Written There?<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><strong><em>Lord, I care not for riches,<\/em><\/strong><br \/> <strong><em> Neither silver nor gold;<\/em><\/strong><br \/> <strong><em> I would be sure of heaven,<\/em><\/strong><br \/> <strong><em> I would enter the fold,<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><em>In the book of Thy kingdom,<\/em><\/strong><br \/> <strong><em> With its page white and fair,<\/em><\/strong><br \/> <strong><em> Tell me, Jesus, my Savior,<\/em><\/strong><br \/> <strong><em> Is my name written there?<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Lord, my sins they are many,<\/em><\/strong><br \/> <strong><em> Like the sands of the sea,<\/em><\/strong><br \/> <strong><em> But Thy blood, O, my Savior,<\/em><\/strong><br \/> <strong><em> Is sufficient for me;<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><em>For Thy promise is written,<\/em><\/strong><br \/> <strong><em> In bright letters that glow,<\/em><\/strong><br \/> <strong><em> Though your sins be as scarlet,<\/em><\/strong><br \/> <strong><em> I will make them like snow.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><em>O! that beautiful city,<\/em><\/strong><br \/> <strong><em> With its mansions of light,<\/em><\/strong><br \/> <strong><em> With its glorified beings,<\/em><\/strong><br \/> <strong><em> In pure garments of white;<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Where no evil things cometh,<\/em><\/strong><br \/> <strong><em> To despoil what is fair;<\/em><\/strong><br \/> <strong><em> Where the angels are watching,<\/em><\/strong><br \/> <strong><em> Is my name written there?<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Chorus:<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Is my name written there,<\/em><\/strong><br \/> <strong><em> On the page white and fair?<\/em><\/strong><br \/> <strong><em> In the book of Thy kingdom,<\/em><\/strong><br \/> <strong><em> Is my name written there?<\/em><\/strong> Frank M.
