The humanist believes that everyone is saved and goes to heaven. According to humanists, everyone is written in the Book of Life of the Lamb and may continue their lives on the new earth. But does the Bible confirm these words and this faith of the humanist? Whose names are really written in the Book of Life of the Lamb according to the Bible?
The judgment before the great white throne of God
The day will come that everyone will stand before God and be judged according to what it written in the books. Because on the Day of Judgment everyone shall be judged according to his works on earth (Revelation 20:11-12).
On that day, books shall be opened, and one book: the Book of Life of the Lamb. But whose names are written in the Book of Life of the Lamb?
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 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
Revelation 20:11-12
Whose names are written in the Book of Life of the Lamb?
In the Book of Life of the Lamb are the names and works written of the people that are saved and shall not be condemned and cast into the eternal lake of fire.
In the Book of life are the names written of the people that are saved by faith and the rebirth in Jesus Christ. They’re justified by His blood and entered the New Covenant with God and His Kingdom, and obeyed the words of the Book of Life and the commandments of the Father, which their works testify of. (a.o. Titus 1:16; James 2:17-26; Revelation 20:12).
They are the saints, the righteous of God and witnesses of Jesus Christ, who by their faith in God and obedience to His Word, bore witness of the Word of God and of the testimony of Jesus Christ.
They’re the ones that are clothed with Christ and the power of the Holy Spirit and overcame by the blood of the Lamb and their testimony. (a.o. Luke 24:46-49; Revelation 3:5, 20-21; 12:11).
They were not ashamed of the gospel and didn’t add nor removed anything from the words of the Book.
They didn’t compromise with the world and didn’t seek the things on earth, and defiled their clothes. (a.o. Mark 8:38; Luke 9:26; Romans 1:16; 2 Timothy 1:8-9; Colossians 3:1-4; 1 John 2:15-17; Revelation 3:4).
But they confessed the Lord Jesus Christ before the people, whereby Jesus shall confess their names before the Father. They stayed faithful and obedient to the words of the Book of Life and sought the things of the Kingdom of heaven and did the will of the Father. (a.o. Matthew 7:21; 10:32; 12:50; Luke 12:8; Romans 10:9-10; Revelation 3:5)
For the Son of man shall come in the glory of His Father with His angels; and then He shall reward every man according to his works
Matthew 16:27
The saints were not deceived by the beast and didn’t worship him
The saints were not deceived by the great signs of the beast. They didn’t bow down to the beast (and his image) and worshiped him, whom the people on the earth whose names are not written in the Book of Life of the Lamb worshiped, and who made war with the saints and to overcome them. (a.o. Revelation 13; 17:8).
Nor did they receive the mark, or name of the beast, or the number of his name, the number of a man. But they purposely refused the mark, being aware of the consequences thereof (Revelation 13:16-18).
The saints remained faithful to their Savior and Lord and only confessed Him and worshiped Him. They endured in the faith of Jesus and kept the commandments of God. They didn’t love their own lives but gave their lives to the Lamb, Who gave His life for them.
Here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus
Revelation 14:12
‘Be the salt of the earth’
