New Jerusalem

 

New Jerusalem

“Then I, John, saw the Holy City, New Jerusalem.” Revelation 21:2

“And He carried me away in the Spirit to a great and high mountain, and showed me the great city, the Holy Jerusalem, descending out of heaven from God.” Revelation 21:10

This Holy city will be perfect. There will be no lies told, no evil word, no shady business deal, no unclean picture. There will be no jails, courtrooms, prisons, hospitals or funeral homes in heaven.

Dr. Criswell stated, “When Jesus died and rose again, His old body wasn’t obliterated and recreated from scratch. The body that rose again was the same that had died on the cross; but in the resurrection power it was glorified, transformed, and fitted for eternity. Our bodies may decay to dust, but God knows where every molecule has landed and somehow in His omnipotent energy, the physical bodies we have now will be resurrected and instantly glorified.”

We will no longer need eyewear, dentures, hearing aids, walkers, wheelchairs or oxygen tanks. Our bodies will be the same, but perfect. No more scars or injuries. Our bodies will be redeemed, restored, made new, not thrown away. And so, it is with the heavens and the earth.

Notes taken from “Rereading the Mysteries of Heaven” by Dr. David Jeremiah.
