A Glimpse Into The Indescribable

The Throne Room Of Heaven (Revelation 4:1-11)

 

After These Things, I (John) looked, and behold, a Door Standing Open in Heaven.  And The First Voice (God Almighty’s) which I (John) heard was like a Trumpet Speaking with me (John), saying, “Come up here, and I (God Almighty) will Show YOU (John) things which must take place after this.”  Immediately, I (John) was in The Spirit; and behold, a Throne Set in Heaven, and One (God Almighty) sat on The Throne (The Throne of God Almighty).  And He (God Almighty) who sat there was like a jasper and a sardius stone in appearance; and there was a Rainbow around The Throne (The Throne of God Almighty), in appearance like an emerald.  Around The Throne (The Throne of God Almighty) were Twenty-Four Thrones, and on The Thrones, I (John) saw Twenty-Four Elders sitting, Clothed in White Robes; and They (The Twenty-Four Elders) had Crowns of Gold on Their (The Twenty-Four Elders) Heads.  And from The Throne (The Throne of God Almighty) Proceeded Lightnings, Thunderings, and Voices.  Seven Lamps of Fire were burning before The Throne (The Throne of God Almighty), which are The Seven Spirits of God (God Almighty).  Before The Throne (The Throne of God Almighty) there was a sea of glass, like crystal.  And in The Midst of The Throne (The Throne of God Almighty), and around The Throne (The Throne of God Almighty), were Four Living Creatures Full of Eyes, in front and in back.  The First Living Creature was like a Lion, The Second Living Creature like a Calf, The Third Living Creature had a Face like a Man, and The Fourth Living Creature was like a Flying Eagle.  The Four Living Creatures, each having Six Wings, were Full of Eyes, around and within.  And They (The Four Living Creatures) do NOT Rest, Day OR Night, saying: “Holy, Holy, Holy, Lord God Almighty, Who was and is and is to come!”  Whenever The Living Creatures (The Four Living Creatures) give Glory and Honor and Thanks to Him (God Almighty) who sits on The Throne (The Throne of God Almighty), Who Lives Forever and ever, The Twenty-Four Elders fall down before Him (God Almighty) who sits on The Throne (The Throne of God Almighty) and Worship Him (God Almighty) Who Lives Forever and ever, and Cast Their (The Twenty-Four Elders) Crowns before The Throne (The Throne of God Almighty), saying: “YOU (God Almighty) are Worthy, O Lord (God Almighty), to Receive Glory and Honor and Power; for YOU (God Almighty) Created All Things, and By Your (God Almighty’s) Will, They (All Things) Exist and were Created.”

 

All Things Made New (Revelation 21:1-8)

Now, I (John) 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 (God Almighty), prepared as a Bride, Adorned for Her Husband.  And I (John) heard a Loud Voice (God Almighty’s) from Heaven saying, “Behold, The Tabernacle of God (God Almighty) is with Men (Believers), and He (God Almighty) will Dwell with Them (Believers), and They (Believers) shall be His (God Almighty’s) People.  God (God Almighty) Himself, will be with Them (Believers) and be Their (Believers) God (God Almighty).  And God (God Almighty) will wipe away every tear from Their (Believers) 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 (God Almighty) who sat on The Throne said, “Behold, I (God Almighty) make All Things NEW.”  And He (God Almighty) said to me (John), “Write, for These Words are True and Faithful.”  And He (God Almighty) said to me (John), “It is Done!  I (God Almighty) Am, The Alpha and The Omega, The Beginning and The End.  I (God Almighty) will give of The Fountain of The Water of Life, Freely, to him (Believers) who Thirsts.  He (Believers) who Overcomes shall Inherit All Things, and I (God Almighty) will be his God (God Almighty) and he (Believers) shall be My (God Almighty’s) Son.

But (Unbelievers) the cowardly, unbelieving, abominable, murderers, sexually immoral, sorcerers, idolaters, and all liars, shall have their (Unbelievers) part, in The Lake which burns with Fire and Brimstone, which is The Second Death.”

The New Jerusalem (Revelation 21:9-21)

Then One of The Seven Angels (God Almighty’s Holy Angels) who had The Seven Bowls filled with The Seven Last Plagues came to me (John) and talked with me (John), saying, “Come, I (One of The Seven Angels) will show YOU (John) The Bride, The Lamb’s Wife.”  And he (One of The Seven Angels) carried me (John) away in The Spirit to a Great and High Mountain, and showed me (John) The Great City, The Holy Jerusalem (The Holy City, New Jerusalem), descending out of Heaven from God (God Almighty), having The Glory of God (God Almighty).  Her (The Holy City, New Jerusalem) Light was like a most precious stone, like a jasper stone, clear as crystal.  Also She (The Holy City, New Jerusalem) had a Great and High Wall with Twelve Gates, and Twelve Angels (God Almighty’s Holy Angels) at The Gates, and names written on Them (The Twelve Gates), which are the names of The Twelve Tribes of The Children of Israel: Three Gates on the East, Three Gates on the North, Three Gates on the South, and Three Gates on the West.  Now The Wall of The City (The Holy City, New Jerusalem) had Twelve Foundations, and on Them (The Twelve Foundations) were the names of The Twelve Apostles of The Lamb (Jesus Christ).  And he (One of The Seven Angels) who talked with me (John) had a Gold Reed to Measure The City (The Holy City, New Jerusalem), its Gates, and its Wall.  The City (The Holy City, New Jerusalem) is laid out as a Square; its Length is as great as its Breadth.  And he (One of The Seven Angels) measured The City (The Holy City, New Jerusalem) with The Reed (Gold Reed): Twelve Thousand Furlongs.  Its (The Holy City, New Jerusalem) Length, Breadth, and Height are Equal.  Then he (One of The Seven Angels) measured its (The Holy City, New Jerusalem) Wall: One Hundred and Forty-Four Cubits, according to the measure of a man, that is, of an Angel (One of The Seven Angels).  The Construction of its Wall (The Holy City, New Jerusalem) was of jasper; and The City (The Holy City, New Jerusalem) was pure gold, like clear glass.  The Foundations of The Wall of The City (The Holy City, New Jerusalem) were adorned with all kinds of precious stones: The First Foundation was jasper, The Second sapphire, The Third chalcedony, The Fourth emerald, The Fifth sardonyx, The Sixth sardius, The Seventh chrysolite, The Eighth beryl, The Ninth topaz, The Tenth chrysoprase, The Eleventh jacinth, and The Twelfth amethyst.  The Twelve Gates were Twelve Pearls: each Individual Gate was of One Pearl.  And The Street of The City (The Holy City, New Jerusalem) was pure gold, like transparent glass.

The Glory Of The New Jerusalem (Revelation 21:22-27)

But I (John) saw NO temple in it (The Holy City, New Jerusalem), for The Lord God Almighty and The Lamb (Jesus Christ) are its (The Holy City, New Jerusalem’s) Temple.  The City (The Holy City, New Jerusalem) had NO need of the Sun OR of the Moon to shine in it (The Holy City, New Jerusalem), for The Glory of God (God Almighty) Illuminated it (The Holy City, New Jerusalem).  The Lamb (Jesus Christ) is its (The Holy City, New Jerusalem’s) Light.  And the Nations of those (Believers) who are Saved shall walk in its (The Holy City, New Jerusalem’s) Light, and the Kings of the Earth bring their Glory and Honor into it (The Holy City, New Jerusalem).  Its (The Holy City, New Jerusalem) Gates shall NOT be shut at All, by Day (there shall be NO Night there).  And They (Believers) shall bring The Glory and The Honor of the Nations into it (The Holy City, New Jerusalem).  But there shall by NO means enter it, ANYTHING that defiles, or causes an abomination or a lie, but ONLY those (Believers) who are Written in The Lamb’s Book of Life.

The River of Life (Revelation 22:1-5)

 

And he (One of The Seven Angels) showed me (John) a Pure River of Water of Life, clear as crystal, proceeding from The Throne of God (God Almighty) and of The Lamb (Jesus Christ).  In the middle of its (The Holy City, New Jerusalem) 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 (The Tree of Life) were for The Healing of the Nations.  And there shall be NO more curse, but The Throne of God (God Almighty) and of The Lamb (Jesus Christ) shall be in it (The Holy City, New Jerusalem), and His (God Almighty’s) Servants (Believers) shall serve Him (God Almighty).  They (Believers) shall see His (God Almighty’s) Face, and His (God Almighty’s) Name shall be on Their (Believers) Foreheads.  There shall be NO Night there: They (Believers) need NO Lamp nor Light of the Sun, for The Lord God (God Almighty) gives Them (Believers) Light.  And They (Believers) shall Reign Forever and ever.

Fellow Believers, imagine being John, seeing what his (John’s) eyes were seeing, then trying to describe everything, in detail, to Us (Fellow Believers).  Could YOU do it?
