I Chron 7-8 Making the List

May 3rd, I Chronicles 7-8

       Another day, another list of names that are members of the family. Being on the list is a blessing and a curse. Being on the list means your included, your part of the family. It is a blessing to be included. However as I sat here and thought about it, it came to me. If your name is on this list it means your part of the problem and why your family is headed off into exile. Time to own up or curse God, which will you choose.
       On a more positive note there is another list. One you or I can find ourselves. David mentions it in Psalm 69 "Add iniquity to their iniquity, and let them not come into thy righteousness, let them be blotted out of the book of life and not be written with the righteous." Revelation 13 and 27 make reference to the list.
       Revelation 20:11-15 is the major passage referring to the Lamb's Book of life. Whose name is written in it and whose name is not. Of all the lists in this world this is the most important one for us to find ourselves in. To call others to be on the list as well. The first list of the day was one you had to be born into, the one that matters most is filled with all of us adoptees. Brothers and sisters, sons and daughters of the Most High God. Join us on the list. Call others to our Father as well!!
