<TITLE>39. Par -</TITLE>1L-121-278 Now, now, he said then that take... "You mentioned that Judas had his name on the Book of Life, and yet, we know that he went to hades and was lost. How can a person, then, have his name on the Book of Life and still be lost?" Now, let me get one more little thing in here for this dear person.
Now notice, the Bible said when Daniel saw... He--he wrote the first Book of Revelations, Daniel. And we notice in the vision he saw Him come to the Ancient of time Whose hair was as white as wool. How many remember reading that? And did you notice, John in Revelations came to the same thing, Revelations 1? And He stood there; His hair was as white as wool, His feet and the way it looked: Ancient of time. Ancient of time, that is, It had no time, the Eternal One. And He came... Now, watch. And the saints come to the earth and the books were opened, and another Book was opened, which was the Book of Life: one book. They came to the judgment, and the... He came, and with Him came ten thousands times ten thousands. Is that right? Ministered to Him, the Bride, Queen and King...

1L-122-280 Who is your little queen in the home? She ministers food to you. Is that right? (What you're late on now.) But when she--when she ministers to you, that's what... The Bride ministers to Christ, the Word. "Man shall not live by bread alone, but every Word." See? She ministers the Word to the King, manifesting His promise Word in the age that She's a-living in. Amen. Ah, I said something then, you didn't get it, but...
Notice. Oh, my. That was a good one. See? Ministering in the age, the Word. Now, notice. And She came--He came, and ten thousands times ten thousands came to Him; and judgment was set, and the books were opened; and another Book was opened which is the Book of Life; and they were judged thus. Who was this that come? The Bride which did not have to come to judgment; she's free from judgment.

1L-122-282 Another book was opened which was the Book of Life, and those who had their name on the Book of Life had to be judged out of that Book. And Judas Iscariot professed to be a believer, and he had his name written among them on the Book of Life. Is that right? He claimed to have Eternal Life. And his name was put on the Book of Life. So he has to... Why, he has to be judged then to see why did he condemn the Word of Life then, sell out for thirty pieces of silver. Some sells out to be a Methodist, Baptist or whatmore. Sold out his position from the Book of Life. And he'll judge--he'll have to be--stand there and judged by that, by the Word. See? That's why Judas had to do it. See? Judas has to come to the judgment. His name was on the Book of Life, but that don't mean he's saved. He has to stand the judgment.

1L-123-283 The sleeping virgin will stand right there under the same--same things. Notice, Jesus said in St. John 5:24, "He that heareth My Word (That's he that can receive It, not he that just hears It preached and go on saying, 'Nonsense.' See?), He that receiveth My Word--He that heareth My Word and believeth (not make-believeth, but truly believe) on Him that sent Me (which was the Word) hath Everlasting Life and shall not come to the judgment; but hath (past tense) passed from death unto Life." That's it.

1L-123-284 So Judas had his name there on the Book of Life (That's exactly right.), but he was condemned, because what did he do? He sold out his birthrights.
Esau was born in a family with the promise of God. The oldest son had the birthright. How many knows that? By a promise of God, Esau's name was on the book for the birthright (Is that right?), but he swapped it for a mess of wild gourds--or peas. Hungry to fill his belly, his meal ticket, he swapped his birthrights for a meal ticket and could find no place to repent.
Those spies that went with--over to spy out the land, came and even eat the grapes that Joshua and Caleb brought back. And yet, what did they do? Sold out their birthrights.
