Are YOU Preparing Yourself For The Transition Into Everlasting Life



Below, is a description of The New Heaven, The New Earth, The New Holy City, New Jerusalem, as described in The Book of Revelation, from The Holy Bible, written by John, as shown to him by Our Lord Jesus Christ.

“Now I saw a New Heaven and a New Earth, for the first Heaven and the first Earth had passed away.  Also there was no more Sea.  Then I, John, saw The Holy City, New Jerusalem, coming down out of Heaven from God, prepared as a Bride adorned for her Husband.  And I heard a loud Voice from Heaven saying, “Behold, The Tabernacle of God is with Men, and He will dwell with them, and they shall be His People.  God Himself will be with them and be their God.  And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes; there shall be no more death, nor sorrow, nor crying.  There shall be no more pain, for the former things have passed away.”  Then He who sat on The Throne said, “Behold, I Make All Things New.”  And He said to me, “Write, for these Words are True and Faithful.”  And He said to me, “It is done!  I am The Alpha and The Omega, The Beginning and The End.  I will give of The Fountain of The Water of Life freely to him who thirsts.  He who overcomes shall Inherit All Things, and I will be His God and he shall be My Son.  But I saw no temple in it, for The Lord God Almighty and The Lamb are its Temple.  The City had no need of the Sun or of the Moon to shine in it, for The Glory of God Illuminated it.  The Lamb is its Light.  And the Nations of those who are Saved shall walk in its Light, and the kings of the Earth bring their Glory and Honor into it.  Its Gates shall not be shut at all by Day (there shall be no Night there).  And they shall bring The Glory and The Honor of the Nations into it.  But there shall by no means enter it anything that defiles, or causes an abomination or a lie, but Only those Who are Written in The Lamb’s Book of Life.  And he showed me a Pure River of Water of Life, clear as crystal, proceeding from The Throne of God and of The Lamb.  In the middle of its Street, and on either side of The River, was The Tree of life, which bore Twelve Fruits, each Tree yielding its Fruit every month.  The Leaves of The Tree were for The Healing of the Nations.  And there shall be no more curse, but The Throne of God and of The Lamb shall be in it, and His Servants shall serve Him.  They shall see His Face, and His Name shall be on their foreheads. There shall be no night there: They need no lamp nor light of the Sun, for The Lord God gives them Light.  And they shall Reign Forever and ever.

Notice, it does NOT mention computers, I-pads, smart phones, televisions, cars, jobs, vacations, etc.  That’s because We, Believers, will spend every single moment with God Almighty and Jesus Christ.  We will spend every single moment Worshiping God Almighty and Jesus Christ.  So, my question for each of YOU is, what are YOU doing to prepare for this?  If Jesus Christ Returned, Today, and this World, this Earth, was destroyed and gone, making way for a New Earth and a New Heaven, every single man-made thing would be gone.  What would YOU think, what would YOU do, how would YOU react, to this huge change in your Life?  Think about this for a moment, please.  Everything YOU know, count on, and do in this World, including sleep, would be gone in an instant, how would YOU react?  Yes, We would Praise and Glorify, The Name of Our Lord God Almighty, and The Name of Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, Who made All of this possible.  We would thank Them Both, for Forgiving and Forgetting Our sins, and allowing Us, to be called Children of God, and welcoming Us into Their New Earth, New Holy City, Jerusalem, and New Heaven, into The Kingdom Of God Almighty.  The question I want to ask each of YOU is, now what?  Are YOU preparing yourself for the transition into Everlasting Life?

The Holy Bible tells Us, We will each receive a New Body, a Spiritual Body of Immortality (See below).

“But someone will say, “How are the dead Raised Up?  And with what body do they come?”  Foolish one, what YOU sow is NOT made Alive unless it dies.  And what YOU sow, YOU do NOT sow that body that shall be, but mere grain, perhaps wheat or some other grain.  But God gives it a body as He Pleases, and to each seed its own body.  All flesh is NOT the same flesh, but there is One Kind of Flesh of Men, another flesh of animals, another of fish, and another of birds.  There are also Celestial Bodies and terrestrial bodies; but The Glory of The Celestial is One, and The Glory of The Terrestrial is another.  There is one glory of the Sun, another glory of the Moon, and another glory of the Stars; for one star differs from another star in glory.  So also is The Resurrection of The Dead.  The body is sown in corruption, it is Raised in Incorruption.  It is sown in dishonor, it is Raised in Glory.  It is sown in weakness, it is Raised in Power.  It is sown a natural body, it is Raised a Spiritual Body.  There is a natural body, and there is a Spiritual Body.  And so it is written, “The first man Adam became a Living Being.”  The last Adam became a Life-Giving Spirit.  However, The Spiritual is NOT first, but the natural, and afterward The Spiritual.  The first man was of the Earth, made of dust; The Second Man is The Lord from Heaven.  As was the man of dust, so also are those who are made of dust; and as is The Heavenly Man, so also are those who are Heavenly.  And as We have borne the image of the man of dust, We shall also bear The Image of The Heavenly Man.  Now this I say, Brethren, that flesh and blood cannot Inherit The Kingdom of God; nor does corruption Inherit Incorruption.  Behold, I tell YOU a Mystery: We shall NOT all sleep, but We shall All be Changed, in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at The Last Trumpet.  For The Trumpet will sound, and the dead will be Raised Incorruptible, and We shall be Changed.  For this corruptible must put on Incorruption, and this mortal must put on Immortality.

Just like Our Lord Jesus Christ has, that’s right.  Flash back to Today, this instant, how are YOU preparing for Everlasting Life, in The Kingdom of God Almighty?  Well, I’m sure YOU read and study The Holy Bible, and YOU spend time in prayer, with God Almighty and Jesus Christ.  But do YOU truly take the time to ponder, what Everlasting Life is going to be like?  Remember, We will have All Day long, and there shall be no Night, Forever.  Everlasting Life, Eternal Life, Eternity, Infinity, Forever, I could go on, and YOU know what, We will.  We will literally and truthfully walk with The Lord God Almighty and Jesus Christ, from this point forward.  At the moment, this is well beyond Our imagination and Our comprehension.  Yet, when this occurs it shall be Glorious, and We look forward to it, every single waking moment, and even when We sleep.  How do We prepare for Our transition into Everlasting Life, YOU may ask?  By encouraging everyone around Us, that this is something to desire, to look forward to, to yearn to have.  That God Almighty and The Lord Jesus Christ offer Us so much more, than anything which can or ever will, be found on this Earth, in this World, period!
