Discuss Revelation 21 Page 20

when one sees the mansion he would have occupied in heaven and sees why he misses it for a lesser one, such a believer will weep. though he made it to heaven but when he saw the crown he should have won and sees the untenable reason why he misses it, he will weep and God will wipe away such people tears. thank you

I overcome by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of my testimony . I overcome by believing and speaking and then obtaining from God 's word that I have believed and spoken Victory ahead and now even if it does not look like it . I will inherit all things and God is my God and I am His daughter son .

THIS CHAPTER IS SPEAKING OF ETERNAL LIFE FOR THE REAL YISRAELITES WHO ARE THE DESCENDENTS OF THE TAST. THE ONLY ONES ALLOWED IN THE CITY WILL BE THE CHILDREN OF YISRAEL. SHALOM

REV 21-25...Michelle God is a Merciful Being, His Spirit searches the minds and hearts of man, only God can judge the circumstances around your son 's suicide, their are no doubt a number of problems these young people face today, with how society is driven and the demands, and sometimes hopelessness in living, and then to top that with the shape the world is in, around every corner an on TV, the internet, GOD being mocked and cursed, while evil runs rampant, and the love of satan being broadcast in every way. I feel God has found a place for your son, and It 's because of you. And your belief. One day you will see him again minus the pain of this life. AMEN!!

Just lost my son to suicide on December 28, 2014. This passage has given me peace. We don 't know why and I am sure we never will. But to know he is not suffering or in pain helps me go forward.

Answer to Word 's comment 01 01 2015 10:46 pm The book of Genesis is about the creation, how the earth was formed and how life begun here, its not about rejuvenating, the earth we know now will be perished it will not rejuvenate, because we Christians are waiting for the new earth that comes from God Revelation 21:1 . And you have provided wrong bible verses to support your idea: Isaiah 45: 18 take note the word TO BE INHABITED, meaning no one yet living there when it was created, Proverbs 8:22-31 - it tells about the Wisdom of God its not about the sons of men, verse 31 its not the sons of men rejoicing here, the one rejoicing here is the Wisdom of God Jesus Christ . Job 38:7- it speak about the angels of God, not of the sons of men, please refer to Job 1:6 and Genesis 6:2,4. Rev 12- the stars here relates to Israel, it does not relate to all inhabitants of the earth. Jeremiah 4: 23 to 27 - it 's about the destruction of the land of Israel, its not about creation, please read from the beginning of chapter 4. What ever we do, the earth we know now is heading to destruction 2Peter 3:10, and will be replace with a new one from God Rev 21:1 , thanks be to God who given us hope.

Hello April Carter: I would like to add to my comment. To judge means to for an idea, opinion, or estimate about any matter to criticize or censure to think or suppose However, in Jesus Christ the word judges. If a person is a sorcerer and the preacher tells them if they do not clean up their act and get right with God they will be lost this is not the preacher judging but God s word has already stated this, Revelation 21: 8. If a person is called a whoremonger and adultery according to the scriptures they will be judged. The scripture states that if a person has not the spirit of God, which is the Holy Ghost, they are none of his, Romans 8: 9. Then they do not believe to God. They are not Jesus Christ children. This is not the messenger words but it is written in the word of God.

Part 2 of 2: They do not want to hear what will happen if they do certain things in their lives. When they hear scriptures like Revelation 21: 7 and 8 or that homosexuality or liars God does not like, they want preachers to sugar coat the word for them. They want preachers to cater to their itching ears. They forget that the scriptures are for the following, 2 Timothy 3: 16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: Sometimes truth hurts. Paul, the Gentiles Apostle, when he taught the Roman Church he did not sugar coat anything. He told them what was going to them. He gave instruction to the Corinthian Church correcting their walk as well.

For those out there that feel alone, that family and friends have abandoned you for your beliefs remember, John 15 18 If the world hate you, ye know that it hated me, before it hated you. AMEN

very encouraging verse to christians.

The word of God inspires people to have faith in Him, And to believe His promise for every Worldly matterial or whatever things ,for it would all pass away.And Jesus Christ promises us to have a happy life in HIS hand in heaven. Thanks be To GOD FOR EVERYTHING we have. Thank you Jesus for the assurance of this life.

Part 3 of 3 When God fills a person with the Holy Ghost he becomes a new creature, 2 Corinthians 5 17 Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature old things are passed away, behold all things become new. God occupies that individual with his spirit the Holy Ghost. When the rapture takes place and that individual who has not taken care of their temple, like the five foolish virgins, the spirit of the Lord is taken out of them and they are left here. Then what replaces it is horrible, Matthew 12 43 thru 45 Luke 11 24 thru 26. Some scholars may say that this is not only talking about those that were once saved but those that were once healed of the Lord. Either way it is still very bad. Right now what is keeping everyone is grace and mercy under the power of the Holy Ghost.

Part 2 of 3 Now if a Christian, who has followed Acts 2 38, is caught when the rapture takes place in sin they will be left here. The prime example of this is the 10 virgins, five were wise and five were foolish. Even though a person may be a Christian if they make a mistake they are given time like everyone else to repent. However, if they are caught in their sin and have not repented and gotten forgiveness then they are lost. When a person is lying they know they are lying. For example people lie to their children, about Santa Claus, The Easter Bunny, The Tooth Fairy, etc. God has no respecter of person.

Part 1 of 3 Hello Gail I do not know if they will post this, but not everyone that calls themselves Christian is a Christian. Matthew 7 21 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. The word Christian means to be Christ like. In order to be Christ like you have to have put on his name by following Acts 2 38. The saints were called Christians in Antioch first, Acts 11 26 and 27.

I wonder does this mean christians as well because some christians tell lies but they also have salvation, so does that mean that they also get thrown into fire and what about a lying spirit, if the person has a lying spirit do they actually know that they are lying? hard to understand .

There is no night within the HOLY CITY but outside There is no night within the Holy City for the glory of GOD and the LAMB are the light of it. But out side of GOD 's Habitation, New Jerusalem, the Sun and Moon will be there.

Yes indeed if we walk in His footsteps, we will experience that beauty and happy life that he is preparing for us. The only thing that differs is that unlike now we living in the world with both bad spirits and those that carry the light of God with. Those that do bad and reject His word will not be there. Only light will shine because only good people will be occupying that Paradise

Denise...there will be no darkness because Christ will be our light. Revelations 22 5 And there shall be no night there and they need no lamp, neither light of the sun for the Lord God gives them light and they shall reign forever and ever.

Hello Everyone Let me explain if I can say it like this. There is both day and night in heaven, Revelation 4 8 And the four beasts had each of them six wings about him and they were full of eyes within and they rest not day and night, saying, Holy, holy, holy, Lord God Almighty, which was, and is, and is to come . Then you have the new heaven and the new earth that will come. Then you have the new city of Jerusalem that will come down and be on the new Earth under the new heaven and this is the city that will have no night, Revelation 21.

It gives hope to the hopeless and encourages all to live and work towards our salvation, as heaven is real.

I think god is preparing us a beautiful place but I don 't understand about the is it always going to be days in heaven no nights ???

Good bless your effort

Matt 10 37, lays it on the line, the same with old friends, we half to forsake all and follow our MESSIAH, and pray, they will one day yield to the conviction of the Holy Spirit, many are called but few are chosen.

when i read this i have hope,so many people and my family hate me, im good to all.

for me revelation chapter 21 is words of Our GOD which features HEAVEN, the place where God prepare for HIS chosen children.Chosen children are those who knew and believe in Our God Jesus Christ.all things happen are also GOD 's will.

Eyes have not seen, or ears have heard, or the thoughts have entered into man 's imagination what GOD has prepared for those who love Him. Some believe the Holy City is in the shape of a cube, I have faith that our Father is more creative than that. His word merely says the height is equal to the length and breadth, so why not a pyramid, that appears as a clear transparent jasper stone, like clear glass radiating the GLORY OF OUR HEVENLY FATHER, and housing a mansion for every child of GOD thru out all time.

i think that we better get our life and ask God to forgive us for our sin ,be for it be to late.

i think that it is very good chapter to study

When will God wipe away all tears from their eyes? According to Rev. 21 4, it is after the millennium, after the first heaven and earth pass away end of the earthly kingdom , and are replaced with a new heaven and new earth start of the heavenly kingdom . God does not wipe away all tears immediately following the Judgment Seat of Christ, as many have suggested. No, the Scriptures seem to teach instead that many believers will consciously regret throughout their millennial existence that they did not hate or lose their soul in this life in order to find and keep it in the millennial world to come as determined at the Judgment Seat . Cr. James Hollandsworth KingdomPreparation
