The new heavens and the new earth are the dwelling place of eternal unspoiled righteousness. The righteous, Lord, and the people of His righteousness will make their abode there. Never again will the righteous work of the Lord be spoiled by sin or unrighteousness.
2 Peter 3:13 All that it is and ever will be is reserved for those whose names are written in the Lamb’s book of life. Rev. 21:27 The Lord will establish, on that new earth, that great and marvelous city called the New Jerusalem. The Bride of Christ, the dwelling place of the Most High. No corruption of any kind will ever be found in her. The call of the Spirit is going forth in our day. It is time to put on the robes of righteousness. Garments of beauty and holiness. The uncircumcised and the unclean are forever rejected from that which the Lord will prepare. Isa. 52:1
A New Jerusalem. This time a spiritual city, an eternal city. The city of true holiness. The actual dwelling place of the Lord, His throne. All the majesty and glory of the Lord to be made manifest in her. She is gorgeous beyond description. While temporal, worldly elements with which we are familiar are used to describe her, in all actuality, the spiritual counter part is excessively far more beautiful. The natural things are of the earth earthy, but that which adorns her is uncontaminated, pure and holy. She is filled to capacity with the fullness of the glory of the Lord. She is a city of brilliant light. Glowing, scintillating with the light of the Lord. Rev. 21:11 The glory of the Lord is in and upon her, while the Lamb is her light. Rev. 21:23.
The glory with which she is filled is of such magnitude that she will never need the sun or moon to furnish light for her. She is that sun clothed woman. Rev . 12:1 She possesses the complete glory of the sun, the moon and the stars. 1Cor. 15:41 The Lord God is not only light but His glory and being is like the sun. Ps. 84:11 He shines with greater glory than a sun. The Lord Jesus is the Sun of righteousness. Mal. 4:2 His glory is the glory of the Father. John 17:1 The glory of the Father was made manifest in His Son, the Lord Jesus on the mount of transfiguration. His face became as the sun, His clothing became as exceeding white as snow and was shining, glittering, scintillating, glowing as the light of the sun. Mt. 17:2 Mark 9:2 Peter, James and John saw the Lord Jesus in His eternal glory. That is the same glory that will encompass and inundate the New Jerusalem. Mt. 13:43.
