"I have long been fascinated by the fact that names of God's elect are written in his "book of life" (Rev. 20:15). It has to be one of the most special evidences of the dignity that God bestows upon human beings that the names which we give to our children are the names he himself has inscribed into his "book." The role God gives to parents is that significant. But even more significantly for our purposes here, these are the names by which God knew us and called us from eternity."
