All Things New

Chapter 21.

Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and the sea was no more. And I saw the holy city, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from our Father, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.

And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, "Look! The dwelling place of our Father is with people. He will live with them, and they will be his people, and he himself will be with them as their Father."

He will wipe away every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will there be mourning, nor crying, nor pain anymore, for the former things have passed away.

And he who was seated on the throne said, "Look! I am making all things new." He also said, "Write this down, for these words are trustworthy and true." And he said to me, "It is done! I am the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end. To the thirsty I will give from the spring of the water of life without payment." The one who conquers will inherit these things, and I will be his Father, and he will be my son. ^a

But as for the cowardly, the faithless, the detestable, as for murderers, the sexually immoral, sorcerers, idolaters, and all liars, their fate will be in the lake that burns with fire and sulfur, which is the second death.

Then one of the seven angels who had the seven bowls full of the seven last plagues came and said to me, "Come, I will show you the Bride, the wife of Jesus, the Lamb." And he carried me away in the Spirit to a great, high mountain, and showed me the holy city Jerusalem coming down out of heaven from our Father, having the glory of our Father, its radiance like the rarest of jewels, like jasper, clear as crystal. It had a great, high wall, with twelve gates, and at the gates twelve angels, and on the gates the names of the twelve tribes of the sons of Israel were inscribed —on the east three gates, on the north three gates, on the south three gates, and on the west three gates. And the wall of the city had twelve foundations, and on them were the twelve names of the twelve apostles of Jesus, the Lamb.

And the one who spoke with me had a measuring rod of gold to measure the city and its gates and walls. The city is perfectly square, its length the same as its width. And he measured the city with his rod—about fourteen hundred miles; its length and width and height are equal. He also measured its wall—about two hundred and sixteen feet by human measurement, which is also an angel's. ^b The wall was built of jasper, while the city was pure gold, clear as glass. The foundations of the city's wall were adorned with every kind of jewel: the first foundation was jasper, the second sapphire, the third agate, the fourth emerald, the fifth onyx, the sixth carnelian, the seventh chrysolite, the eighth beryl, the ninth topaz, the tenth chrysoprase, the eleventh jacinth, the twelfth amethyst. And the twelve gates were twelve pearls, each of the gates made of a single pearl, and the street of the city was pure gold, transparent as glass.

And I saw no temple in the city, for its temple is the Sovereign Father, and Jesus, the Lamb. And the city has no need of sun or moon to shine on it, for the glory of our Father gives it light, and its lamp is Jesus, the Lamb. By its light the nations will walk, and the kings of the earth will bring their glory into it. And its gates will never be shut by day—and there will be no night there. They will bring into it the glory and the honor of the nations. But nothing unclean will ever enter it, nor anyone who does what is detestable or false, but only those who are written in the book of life of Jesus, the Lamb.
