REVELATION - THE NEW JERUSALEM

 

Revelation 21:1-8

Then I saw a New Heaven and a New Earth,

For the First Heaven and the First Earth had Passed Away,

And there was no longer any sea.

2 I saw the Holy City, the New Jerusalem,

Coming down out of Heaven from God,

Prepared as a Bride beautifully dressed for her Husband.

3 And I heard a Loud Voice from the Throne saying,

'NOW THE DWELLING OF GOD IS WITH MEN,

And He will live with them.

They will be His people,

And God Himself will be with them and be their God.

4 He will wipe every tear from their eyes.

There will be no more Death or Mourning or Crying or Pain,

FOR THE OLD ORDER OF THING HAS PASSED AWAY.'

5 He who was seated on the throne said,

'I AM MAKING EVERYTHING NEW!'

Then he said, 'Write this down,

For these words are Trustworthy and True.'

6 He said to me:

'IT IS DONE.

I am the Alpha and the Omega,

The Beginning and the End.

TO HIM WHO IS THIRSTY

I will give to Drink without cost

From the Spring of the Water of Life.

7 HE WHO OVERCOMES WILL INHERIT ALL THIS,

And I will be His God and he will be My son.'

8 'But the Cowardly, the Unbelieving, the Vile,

The Murderers, the Sexually Immoral,

Those who practice Magic Arts, the Idolaters and all Liars—

THEIR PLACE WILL BE

THE FIERY LAKE OF BURNING SULFUR.

THIS IS THE SECOND DEATH.'

(Revelation 21:1-8)

Following the Thousand Year Millennium,

God has prepared a New Heaven and a New Earth.

The one we currently inhabit

And the heaven we look up to

Will have Passed Away.

There will be a New Jerusalem, the Holy City,

The Bride of Christ,

Dressed beautifully for her Husband,

Where God will dwell Forever.

The Old Order of things will Pass Away.

Everything will be made New.

Those, who today are Thirsty;

Those who Overcome this Wicked World

And Satan who rules it,

Will Inherit ALL THIS.

'But the Cowardly, the Unbelieving, the Vile,

The Murderers, the Sexually Immoral,

Those who practice Magic Arts,

The Idolaters and all Liars—

THEIR PLACE WILL BE

THE FIERY LAKE OF BURNING SULFUR.

THIS IS THE SECOND DEATH.'

The Second Death is Eternal Death,

FOREVER!
