Not saying they have any authority, just that they agree with my memory of a few sermons I have listened to. That may be out there in sermons but it's not in Scripture. From biblehub: The Final Judgment 11Then I saw a great white throne and the One who sat on it. The earth and the heavens fled from His presence, and no place was found for them. 12And I saw the dead, great and small, standing before the throne. And there were open books, and one of them was the book of life. And the dead were judged according to their deeds, as recorded in the books. 13The sea gave up its dead, and Death and Hades gave up their dead, and each one was judged according to his deeds.… Cross References Daniel 7:10 "A river of fire was flowing And coming out from before Him; Thousands upon thousands were attending Him, And myriads upon myriads were standing before Him; The court sat, And the books were opened. Luke 10:20 Nevertheless, do not rejoice that the spirits submit to you, but rejoice that your names are written in heaven." Revelation 3:5 Like them, the one who is victorious will be clothed in white garments. And I will never blot out his name from the book of life, but I will confess his name before My Father and His angels. Revelation 20:15 And if anyone was found whose name was not written in the book of life, he was thrown into the lake of fire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are damned if you're not in the Book of life. Other books simply detail actions and deeds apparently. No Scripture requires us to address each other by name either. Putting unbiblical stuff like this out there can really confuse new believers. One should not stretch or change Scripture. Hi Morning Glory Did you read the scripture I quoted? Revelation 20:12 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. What are those "books" that are opened? They must be our own personal books containing all our deeds. This judgement is different for all those not in the first resurrection. It's a harsher judgement. We all have angels recording what we do daily, and will present what is written in these books on the day of judgement to the Lord. Christ offers us another way,...to pass this judgement, and have all this blotted out, the recordings of our sins. Also I already explained that the book of the damned was just my expression. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look at how perfect satan was created , BUT HE BECAME ENAMOURED with his own beauty. well so have many . PRIDE was the condemnation of the devil so too with many today. with many. we have to look out for each other too.

I don't read each and every post, no time, so no I didn't see where you said it was just an expression. I hope you make that clear for anyone reading who might not know.. And yes, I did read the Scripture you posted.l I'm just a stickler for concise language, especially when it's Scripture. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hello again MorningGlory Ok, I will make this clear. When I used my own expression "the book of the Damned", I picture it like this. We know there is the Lambs book of life. All who inherit the kingdom, their names will be recorded in this, ...then there's the final White Throne Judgement. In this judgement they will be judged according to the books (plural). There are many books containing all our deeds, nothing will be hidden or missed, so I see this as our own special books that we will be judged by, with all our own works recorded good and bad. Now in this judgement, all our deeds will be weighed out and balanced. If we are found wanting and the scales tip to the left, then our names go into another book - all the names reserved for the lake of fire. This is the final list after judgement, and what I call the book of the damned. There will definately be a list. If the scale tips more to the right, then into the Lambs book of life their names will go. In the end there are only two books that really matter, but there is a process in between where our own books will be presented and in this judgement we are judged out of that.
