NEW JERUSALEM

Isaiah 66:22-23
“For as the new heavens and the new earth, which I will make,
shall remain before me, saith the Lord, so shall your seed and
your name remain. And it shall come to pass, that from one new
moon to another, and from one Sabbath to another, shall all
flesh come to worship before me, saith the Lord.”

Revelation 21:1-7
“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.
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 away 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. And he that sat upon the throne said,
behold, I make all things new. And he said unto me, write: for
these words are true and faithful. And he said unto me, it is
done. I am the Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. I
will give unto him that is athirst of the fountain of the water
of life freely. He that overcometh shall inherit all things; and
I will be his God, and he shall be my son.”
