In the end, our mother, the heavenly city Jerusalem will come to earth with men:
Rev 21:2-4 And I John saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.
3 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.
4 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.
The heavenly city, new Jerusalem is our mother:
Gal 4:26 But Jerusalem which is above is free, which is the mother of us all.
4 points to think about:
We will overcome ....
we will inherit all things ....
God will be our God ....
we will be His sons:
Rev 21:7 He that overcometh
shall inherit all things;
and I will be his God,
and he shall be my son.
God, through Paul, wrote for us to overcome:
Rom 3:4 God forbid: yea, let God be true, but every man a liar;
as it is written, That thou mightest be justified in thy sayings,
and mightest overcome when thou art judged.
God, through Paul, wrote for us to inherit all things because we are in Christ:
Eph 1:10-11 That in the dispensation of the fulness of times he might gather together
in one
all things in Christ,
both which are in heaven, and which are on earth;
even in him:
11 In whom also we have obtained an inheritance, being predestinated according to the purpose of him who worketh all things after the counsel of his own will:
God, through Paul, wrote that He will be our God
and we will be His sons:
2 Cor 6:16-18 And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in them; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.
17 Wherefore come out from among them, and be ye separate, saith the Lord, and touch not the unclean thing; and I will receive you,
18 And will be a Father unto you,
and ye shall be my sons and daughters, saith the Lord Almighty.
‘Mid-Acts-ers’ teach that we have nothing to do with any verse in the Revelation (the revealing) of Jesus Christ .... but the verses we just read where Paul taught 4 of the same things, proved 'mid-Acts-ers' wrong.
This is David Dowell, saying, "Think about it!"
