IT HAS BEEN A GREAT PRIVILEGE TO DO THIS SERIES ON MY BLOG. THIS IS THE FINAL POST FOR THE SYNOPTIC VIEW OF THE HIGH POINTS OF THE BIBLE. IT’S DETERMINATION AND SCOPE HAS SUCCESSFULLY OFFERED A CLARIFIED OVERVIEW OF THE THINGS MOST PEOPLE ALIVE DO NOT REALLY UNDERSTAND ABOUT THE BIBLE. I CAN ONLY HOPE YOU HAVE ENJOYED THIS AND HAVE A DESIRE TO READ THE MOST IMPORTANT BOOK EVER WRITTEN FOR YOURSELF. I GUARANTEE THAT WITH AN OPEN HEART AND MIND YOU WILL REAP INCREDIBLE OPPORTUNITIES AND BLESSINGS FROM THE PAGES.
Keep in mind this prophecy in Revelation is a depiction of the very end of measured time before THE HEAVENLY eternity begins.
REVELATION CHAPTER 21 SYNOPSIS:
“AND I SAW A NEW HEAVEN AND A NEW EARTH: FOR THE FIRST HEAVEN AND THE FIRST EARTH WERE PASSED AWAY; AND THERE WAS NO MORE SEA.”
“AND I JOHN SAW THE HOLY CITY, NEW JERUSALEM, COMING DOWN FROM GOD OUT OF HEAVEN, PREPARED AS A BRIDE ADORNED FOR HER HUSBAND.”
(COMMENTARY: WITH A NEW HEAVEN AND EARTH THE NEW JERUSALEM COMES DOWN AND MAKES HEAVEN HERE ON EARTH. YES HEAVEN WILL BE HERE ON EARTH!
“AND I HEARD A GREAT VOICE OUT OF HEAVEN SAYING, BEHOLD THE TABERNACLE OF GOD IS WITH MEN, AND HE WILL DWELL WITH THEM, AND THEY SHALL BE HIS PEOPLE, AND GOD HIMSELF SHALL BE WITH THEM, AND BE THEIR GOD.”
“AND GOD SHALL WIPE ALL TEARS FROM THEIR EYES; AND THERE SHALL BE NO MORE DEATH, NEITHER SORROW, NOR CRYING, NEITHER SHALL THERE BE ANY MORE PAIN: FOR THE FORMER THINGS ARE PASSED AWAY.”
(COMMENTARY: ALL TERRIBLE AND PAINFUL MEMORIES OF THE PREVIOUS AGES OF SECULAR EARTH WILL BE ERASED, INCLUDING ALL THE MEMORIES OF THE WICKED.)
“AND HE THAT SAT UPON THE THRONE SAID, BEHOLD I MAKE ALL THINGS NEWS. AND HE SAID UNTO ME WRITE: FOR THESE WORDS ARE TRUE AND FAITHFUL.”
“AND HE SAID UNTO ME, IT IS DONE. I AM ALPHA AND OMEGA, THE BEGINNING AND THE END.”
“HE THAT OVERCOMES SHALL INHERIT ALL THINGS; AND I WILL BE HIS GOD, AND HE SHALL BE MY SON.”
ONE OF THE ANGELS TALKED WITH JOHN, SAYING, COME HITHER, I WILL SHOW YOU THE BRIDE, THE LAMB’S WIFE. AND HE CARRIED JOHN AWAY IN THE (HOLY) SPIRIT TO A HIGH MOUNTAIN TO THE GREAT CITY JERUSALEM DESCENDING OUT OF HEAVEN FROM GOD.
JOHN GOES ON TO DESCRIBE THE BEAUTY OF THE CITY IN REV. 21:11-21.
IN THIS DESCRIPTION THE ANGEL MEASURES THE CITY AND FINDS IT TO BE 12,000 FURLONGS (ABOUT 24,000,000 YARDS OR 15,000 MILES!)
JOHN SEES NO TEMPLE IN NEW JERUSALEM FOR GOD AND THE LAMB ARE THE TEMPLE.
THE CITY WILL HAVE NO SUN OR MOON, FOR GOD AND THE LAMB WILL BE THE LIGHT.
THERE WILL BE NO NIGHT IN THE NEW JERUSALEM.
(COMMENTARY: THE NIGHT IN THE HISTORY OF EARTH WAS FOR THE DEPICTION OF TIMES AND SEASONS, FOR THE TIME OF SLEEP IN THE PURPOSE OF THE CIRCADIAN RHYTHM OF MAN, AND USED BY DEMONS AND THE WICKED TO OPERATE UNDER COVER OF DARKNESS. THERE WILL BE NO DARKNESS IN HEAVEN).
REVELATION CHAPTER 22 SYNOPSIS:
THE ANGEL CONTINUES TO SHOW JOHN THE NEW JERUSALEM.
“AND HE SHOWED ME A PURE RIVER OF WATER OF LIFE, CLEAR AS CRYSTAL, PROCEEDING OUT OF THE THRONE OF GOD AND THE LAMB.”
IN THE MIDDLE OF THE STREET, ON EITHER SIDE OF THE RIVER, WAS THE TREE OF LIFE, WHICH BARE 12 DIVERSE FRUITS, AND YIELDED FRUIT EVERY MONTH, AND THE LEAVES OF THE TREE WERE FOR HEALING THE NATIONS.
THERE SHALL BE NO MORE CURSES ON EARTH!
WE (THE FOLLOWERS OF CHRIST) SHALL REIGN FOREVER AND EVER WITH GOD!
THE ANGEL REMINDS JOHN OF JESUS CHRIST —
“BEHOLD I COME QUICKLY: BLESSED IS HE THAT KEEPS THE SAYINGS OF THE PROPHECY OF THIS BOOK.”
“BLESSED ARE THEY THAT DO HIS COMMANDMENTS, THAT THEY MAY HAVE RIGHT TO THE TREE OF LIFE, AND MAY ENTER IN THROUGH THE GATES INTO THE CITY.”
FOR I TESTIFY UNTO EVERY MAN THAT HEARS THE WORDS OF THE PROPHECY OF THIS BOOK, IF ANY MAN SHALL ADD (OR TAKE AWAY) TO THESE THINGS, GOD SHALL ADD TO HIM THE PLAGUES THAT ARE WRITTEN IN THIS BOOK: AND SHALL TAKE AWAY HIS PART OUT OF THE BOOK OF LIFE, AND OUT OF THE HOLY CITY, AND FROM THE THINGS WHICH ARE WRITTEN IN THIS BOOK.
“HE WHICH TESTIFIES THESE THINGS SAYS, SURELY, I COME QUICKLY. AMEN. EVEN SO, COME, LORD JESUS.”
“THE GRACE OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST BE WITH YOU ALL. AMEN.”
THIS IS THE END OF THE BOOK OF REVELATION, THE NEW TESTAMENT AND THE END OF THE HOLY BIBLE.
