No. Exodus 32:33. Psalms 69:27-28. And now only those who overcome through faith in Christ will not in any way have their names blotted out (1 John 5:4; Revelation 3:5).

Their names were in the book before the foundation of the world (Ephesians 1:4).

The ones who perish are the ones whose names are not in the book (Revelation 20:15)
Not all sinners are put down in the Lambs, but only those God chose to save in Christ!

no , we do not find names added to the Book when saved but not removed from the Book when one overcomes the world to repent. Those who do not repent are "blotted" out

In the OT, when it describes names being blotted out of the book, refersd to them being killed physically, and removed from Israel. The in revelation refers to those who have eternal /spiritual life, and none ever are removed from there, as God placed them there Himself! He would not contridicyt Himself!

Please included verses, I do not follow.

All names begin in the book of life. Names are blotted out because of sin. Unless one has without any merit trusted in God their names will have been blotted out do to sin.

The reason in the judgement people perish is their names are not in the book (Revelation 20:15; Exodus 32:33).

Only those who are counted as children in God's sight will not have their names removed (Mark 10:15; John 3:3; 1 John 5:4; Revelation 3:5). For whom Christ redeems. The rest will receive the greater damnation with Christ as their Judge (Romans 14:9-11).
Revelation is a book of symbols. We know of our salvation because we live a saved lifestyle. So the warnings are instrumental in our perseverance. But According to John none of the elect will ever be lost. We always overcome sin.

According to the thread? Could one one more person be saved? or Is there ever not going to be atonement for one more soul?

no, we all lost , then were saved when repentant at belief . This secured our names from not being removed.

Rev 3:5

He that overcometh, (ie maybe The Cares of the World) the same shall be clothed in white raiment; and I will not blot out his name out of the book of life, but I will confess his name before my Father, and before his angels.

Rev 22:19

And if any man shall take away from the words of thebook of this prophecy, God shall take away his part outof the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from thethings which are written in this book.

God Himself writes the names of all whom he will ave from eternity past, and none gte blotted out, as he makes sure, per Romans 8, that all He saved stay saved!

Even if we fail to do that always, he is faithful and true to us!
2 Timothy 2:13
What saves us? the blood of Christ, not our behavior!

The saved will overcome, not by their own efforts and works, but due to them being now secured in Chriust, and the Holy Spirit will never unseal Himself from us!

I think our names are written when we are created, which in my case is eternity past.
 
John 3:
The intent of the Cross of God was not to save all lost sinners, but to save only those whom he would draw and call and bring to Jesus!

Don't forget the effects of sin on nature and all living things. Since Jesus conquered death and hades by His resurrection, then something powerful happened when our Creator became our Redeemer on the cross.

So yes... it is by the power of the ransom of the cross that He can save all sinners BUT it can only be applied to those that believe in Him.

That means for the unbelievers out there, the power to save them is still available and all they have to do is believe in Him.

John 3:15 That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life. 16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. 17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. 18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.

John 1:12 But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: 13 Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.

Once saved, new believers can learn of Him in His words and all His promises to us in living that reconciled relationship with God through Jesus Christ by trusting Him to be their Good Shepherd to help them lay aside every weight & sin in following Him so they can be received as a vessel unto honor in His House by the Bridegroom when He comes at the pre great trib rapture event.

This is my last word on this thread. My wife and I have a nice, relaxing motorcycle (Suzuki Boulevard 1500 for those curious)ride to Hot Springs that starts right after I get through with classes this morning. She is a much higher priority than arguing on a public forum. :Inlove

Let me get this right...you start a subject that genders heat on a forum that genders heat, and when your position is exposed, compromised, has fallen flat, you tuck tail and run.

YOU started this thread and YOU should stay in it. Don’t run and hide on your Suzuki.

"Strawman" is not an answer.

Except I don't.

So your personal attack is my fault?

No, my question pointed out the falsity of your claim.

Again, how does a lost person enter into the Heavenly Holy of Holies and "appropriate" that which is on the Mercy Seat? Either Christ atoned for their sin or He didn't. You can't add man's works to Christ's finished work.

And again you conflate Christ's death for all with Christ's atonement. They are NOT the same thing. That has been explained to you over and over again.

No, the universalism box is yours not mine. I do not believe the atonement was universal. I believe it only atones for the sins of believers.

So He couldn't quite pull it off so He needed our help to save us. We had to add our works to His (un)finished work?

So there we have it. You have to add something to Christ's (un)finished work.

All of Him. None of me. Christ is not a failure. He doesn't just try and fail to save people. He saves those whom He will save. He never fails.
It is the cross plus their works that gains salvation. Hello works.

You're one to make such a charge to Pastor Bob when the other day you asked for your thread to be shut down with your following words,

I have already once asked for this thread to please be locked. It's fruitless.

So why couldn't we have said to you your position is exposed and has fallen flat and you tucked your tail and ran?

YOU started this thread and YOU should stay in it. Don’t run and hide on your Suzuki.

GOOD GRIEF! The man said he was going away on a vacation! He has to be subjected to such a foolish ludicrous insult like this? If anything shouldn't you have encouraged him to enjoy himself? Nope...bring out the axe! Grow up please! It might be nice to see some of that Grace you have in your name. Seriously.
