The whole Book of Revelation has now progressed through to the Great White Throne Judgment and beyond, showing us that it is actually a Book of Judgment, for the Prophet Isaiah says “When Yahuah’s judgments are in the earth, the inhabitants of the world will learn righteousness. But even though favour is shown, they still will not learn..."(ISAIAH 26). John’s apocalyptic visions have proven this word of Isaiah to be true, for combined they form the Revelation of Judgment :

REV.1 - The Divine Judge - Yahusha Messiah our Alahim Himself

REV.2-3 - Judgment begins at the House of Yahusha, His Bridal-Elect.

REV.4-7 - The Seven Sealed Book of Judgment.

REV.8-10 - The Seven Trumpets of Judgments.

REV.11 - Judgment on Israel.

REV.12 - Judgment on the Bridal-Elect.

REV. 13 - Judgment on the World.

REV. 14 - The Mark of the Beast.

REV.15-16 - The Seven Bowls of Yahusha’s Wrath.

REV.17 - Judgment on the Whore of Babylon.

REV. 18 - Judgment on the City of Babylon.

REV.19 - Judgment on Anti-Messiah, the False Prophet and his armies.

REV.20 - The First Resurrection — Judgment Seat for the Bride.

                   The Second Resurrection — The Great White Throne Judgment.

REV.21-22 - The Eternal States — Eternal Judgment or Eternal Blessing.

REVELATION.21


1And I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the former heaven and the former earth had passed (FRACKLED) away, and the sea is no more.


HEBREW UNDERSTANDING  for "NEW":

1069 - to burst the womb, i.e. bear or make early fruit (of woman or tree);

               to give the birthright:make firstborn, be firstling (new fruit).

1278 - a creation, i.e. a novelty:—a new thing.

2318 - (KADASH) to be new; to renew (rebuild, recreate, repair).

2319 - (KADASH) fresh, a new thing, green, flourishing.

2320 - (KODESH) month or new moon  ...   ('renewed moon' insanity)

2322 - (KADASHAH) feminine of 2319: new

2323 - (KADATH) corresponding to 2319: new 

2961 - to be moist; dripping; fresh (i.e. recently made such).

6071 - fresh grape-juice (as just trodden out):--juice, new (sweet) wine.

LOOKING AT THESE HEBREW WORDS IN THE SPIRIT (AND KNOWING HOW YAHUSHA ALAHIM OPERATES) WE CAN SEE THAT THE WORD-CONCEPT IS NOT 'RENEW' BUT 'NEW' - FOR WHEN YAHUSHA MOVES, TRANSITIONS AND TRANSFORMS (HIMSELF, HIS COVENANT, HIS PEOPLE, HIS CREATION, (ANYTHING) IT IS ALWAYS SPECTACULARLY FRESH AND BEAUTIFULLY CLEAN AND NEW AGAIN. 

THE FIRST WORDS OF GENESIS ARE: "IN THE BEGINNING ALAHIM CREATED THE HEAVENS AND THE EARTH" AND THE FIRST WORDS OF REVELATION CHAPTER 21 ARE: "THEN I SAW A NEW HEAVEN AND A NEW EARTH, FOR THE OLD HEAVEN AND THE OLD EARTH HAD PASSED AWAY". IF GENESIS 1 IS THE BOOK OF BEGINNING, THEN REVELATION 21 IS THE BOOK OF A NEW BEGINNING ... LIKE A  ‘GENESIS THE SEQUEL’.

SO BECAUSE THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN GENESIS 1:1 AND REVELATION 21:1 IS SELF-EVIDENT, THEN BEFORE WE EXPLORE THE NEW HEAVENS AND NEW EARTH (THE RE-CREATION OR TRANSFORMATION), LET'S TAKE A LOOK AT THE AMAZING CONNECTION BETWEEN DELIVERANCE AND CREATION.


2 CORINTHIANS 5:17

"So if anyone is in Yahusha, they are a new creation - for the old has passed away, and look, all things are now NEW!"

BEING 'IN' YAHUSHA IS PAUL'S WAY OF SAYING "REDEEMED & DELIVERED”, AND HE SAYS THAT BEING A NEW CREATION (BORN ANEW) IS THE AUTOMATIC RESULT OF BEING REDEEMED. MANY TRANSLATIONS SAY THAT WE BECOME A NEW CREATURE, BUT "CREATION" IS MORE ACCURATE, FOR IN THE HEBREW LANGUAGE IT SPEAKS OF THE PROCESS, NOT AN OBJECT, IT'S THE PROCESS OF CREATING OR ESTABLISHING SOMETHING NEW; IT IS NOT THE NEW THING ITSELF. 

THE BRIDE (AND HER BEHAVIOURAL CHANGE ALONG THE WAY FROM SOMETHING OLD TO SOMETHING NEW) BECOMES THE VISIBLE TANGIBLE EVIDENCE OF THE VEIN-PROCESS OF NEW CREATION THAT ITSELF IS PROOF OF OUR DELIVERANCE; BUT WE DON'T BECOME COMPLETELY NEW CREATURES UNTIL WE’RE TRANSFORMED IN THE TWINKLING OF AN EYE AT YAHUSHA'S RETURN. SO DELIVERANCE ACTUALLY INVOLVES AN ACT OF CREATION, TRANSFORMING SOMEONE FROM THE CORRUPT POWER OF DEATH IN THEIR FLESH, TO THE INCORRUPTION OF ETERNAL LIFE (PLANTED IN SEED FORM) ... TRANSITIONING US FROM SOMETHING OLD TO SOMETHING NEW ... IT'S A PROCESS REQUIRING YAHUSHA'S SPIRIT AND FIRE POWER, THROUGH HIS NARROW VEIN ... DELIVERANCE IS ONLY EVIDENT THROUGH CHANGED BEHAVIOUR !! 

THIS SAME YAHUSHA-PATTERN EXTENDS TO THE HEAVENS AND THE EARTH. IN FACT IT EXTENDS TO EVERYTHING THAT MAKES UP THE 4 DIMENSIONAL UNIVERSE IN WHICH WE LIVE AND CAN OBSERVE (TIME & SPACE). SO YAHUSHA IS NOT ONLY OUT TO SIMPLY DELIVER HIS BRIDE; BUT RATHER HIS ENTIRE CREATION. 

HUMANKIND IS IMPORTANT TO YAHUSHA; BUT WE'RE NOT EVERYTHING OR THE ONLY THING OF VALUE IN HIS CREATION. FOR WHEN ADAM SINNED IT DIDN'T JUST INTRODUCE EVIL AND DECAY INTO HIMSELF, OR INTO HIS SEED THAT WOULD SPRING FROM HIM, BUT RATHER IT INFECTED EVERY ASPECT OF OUR 4 DIMENSIONAL UNIVERSE. THEREFORE YAHUSHA KNEW HE WOULD HAVE TO REDEEM AND DELIVER IT ALL. AND SINCE YAHUSHA’S DESIGNED REDEMPTION PROCESS INVOLVES CREATING THINGS FRESH AND NEW (THROUGH A COCOON-LIKE VEIN OF METAMORPHOSIS), THAT IS WHAT WE WITNESS HAPPENING WITH THE FIRST WORDS OF REVELATION CHAPTER 21:

REVELATION.21


1And I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the former heaven and the former earth had passed away, (FRACKLED UP) and the sea is no more.

HEBREW UNDERSTANDING  for

"PASS AWAY":


3615 - to end, to cease, be finished, perish, to complete, prepare, consume, accomplish, cease, consume (away), determine, utterly destroy, be done, be an end of, expire, fail, faint, finish, fulfil, bring to pass, wholly reap, make clean riddance, spend, quite take away, waste.


THE ONLY WAY TO BECOME A FRESH NEW CREATION LIKE YAHUSHA DID IS TO PICK UP OUR TORTURE STAKES AND FOLLOW HIM THROUGH THE VEIN PROCESS OF DELIVERANCE. WE MUST BECOME A SPIRITUAL BEING, BORN OF WATER AND THE SPIRIT - IN ORDER TO ACCESS THE HEAVENLY REALM, HAVING A DIVINE PORTAL OPENED IN OUR NEW BLOOD-WASHED TEMPLES. YAHUSHA'S BAPTISM OF SPIRIT BIRTHS WITHIN US A NEW HEART, A NEW SPIRIT AND HIS ROYAL LAWS OF LOVE INSCRIBED ON US. THE SECRET OF THE AGES: ALAHIM LIVING WITHIN HIS CHOSEN PEOPLE AND THE SEEDS OF THE KINGDOM, IS ETERNAL LIFE SOWN INTO US IN SEED-FORM AND THIS POWERFUL SPIRIT OF YAHUSHA ALAHIM BEGINS TO GROW AND TAKE OVER OUR BODIES, FILLING THEM WITH LIGHT MORE AND MORE AS WE DENY THE WORLD AND IT'S BEHAVIOUR. THE WE REALISE WE HAVE A BATTLE ON OUR HANDS FOR THERE REMAINS IN US A SPIRIT IN OUR FLESH WITH IT'S BAD HABITS, VOICES AND DESIRES THAT ARE TOTALLY AGAINST YAHUSHA AND HIS WORD. THIS IS WHERE THE BAPTISM OF FIRE HAPPENS AND YAHUSHA PUTS US THROUGH A TORTUROUS CRUCIBLE OF PURIFICATION: FLOGGING, REBUKING, CHASTISING AND DISCIPLINING US UNTIL WE CHOOSE TO OVERCOME BY CHECKING EVERY THOUGHT BY WALKING ON HIS WORD - SO THAT WE WILL BEHAVE THE FRUITS OF RIGHTEOUSNESS (NINE FRUITS OF THE SPIRIT) UNDER HIS 2 ROYAL LAWS. THIS IS HOW WE BECOME A NEW CREATION, DELIVERED FROM EVIL: THE SPIRIT BAPTISM IS BIRTHING LIFE ETERNAL WITHIN US AND MATURING US, WHILE THE FIRE BAPTISM IS KILLING THE OLD SPIRIT IN OUR FLESH, UNTIL YAHUSHA ALAHIM COMPLETES THE WORK THAT HE STARTED .... HALLELUYAH HE IS SO WONDERFUL !!!

PAUL WAS NOT THE FIRST TO FULLY RECOGNISE THIS PATTERN AND CONNECTION OF DELIVERANCE WITH A NEW CREATION. THE PROPHET ISAIAH LAID IT OUT IN ISAIAH 65, WHERE YAHUAH IS DISCIPLING AND CALLING OUT THE INHABITANTS OF EARTH FOR THEIR IDOLATROUS BEHAVIOUR. AT THE SAME TIME HE'LL DELIVER THEM (REDEEM THEM BACK) FROM THEIR GRIEVOUS OFFENCES AGAINST HIM, AND THEN IT ALL WINDS UP WITH SOMETHING NEW :


ISAIAH 65:16-19

"Behold, My servants will sing for joy of heart, but you will cry for sorrow of heart, and howl for irritation of spirit. And you will leave your name for a curse to My chosen ones, for Yahuah Alahim  will slay  you  and  call  His servants by another name. (I.E NOT ISRAEL) So someone on earth who blesses himself will bless himself by the Alahim of truth, and someone on earth who swears an oath will swear by the Alahim of truth; for past troubles and distress will be forgotten, hidden from My eyes. For, look! I create a new heavens and a new earth; past things will not be remembered, they will no more come to mind. But be glad and rejoice forever in what I create; for look, I create Jerusalem (A NEW CITY WHICH THE OLD WAS MERELY A SHADOWED BLUEPRINT OF) a rejoicing, and her people a joy. And I will rejoice in My Jerusalem , and will joy in My people, and let the voice of weeping or crying be heard in her no more".

EVEN THOUGH ISAIAH PROBABLY DIDN’T FULLY REALISE IT, THE IMPORTANT PATTERN WAS ESTABLISHED THAT REDEMPTION AND NEW CREATION THROUGH DELIVERANCE CANNOT BE SEPARATED FROM ONE ANOTHER; IT COMES AS A PACKAGE DEAL. BUT WE MUST ALSO NOT OVERLOOK THAT ISAIAH PROPHESIED THE CREATION OF A NEW HEAVENS AND EARTH (TO REPLACE THE EXISTING ONES) AND HE WROTE IT EIGHT CENTURIES BEFORE JOHN'S REVELATION! THIS IS KNOWLEDGE THAT DIDN'T ESCAPE THE SIMPLE FISHERMAN PETER, ALTHOUGH I SUSPECT THAT IT WAS HIS MASTER YAHUSHA, THAT TAUGHT THIS TO HIM IN ONE OF THE MANY ENCOUNTERS HE HAD WITH HIS 12 DISCIPLES THAT AREN'T WRITTEN DOWN.

2 PETER 3 NEEDS TO BE COMPARED WITH JOHN'S VISION IN REV.21, FOR HE SUGGESTS THAT 'THREE WORLDS' OR 'ARRANGEMENTS' ARE DEALT WITH IN SCRIPTURE :


1. THE FIRST WORLD "THROUGH WHICH THE WORLD AT THAT TIME WAS DESTROYED, BEING FLOODED WITH WATER". THIS "FIRST WORLD" (ARRANGEMENT) SPANNED FROM THE CREATION UNTO THE FLOOD.

2 PETER 3:1 - 13

13"Mockers will come in the last days, walking in their own lusts, 4saying, “Where is the promise of His coming? For since our fathers fell asleep (died), everything continues on in the world the same as it has from the beginning of creation.” 5For they choose to have this hidden from them: that the Heavens were of old, and the earth was standing out of water, and in the water, by the Word of Alahim, 6through which the world at that time was destroyed, being flooded with water. 7And the present Heaven and the Earth are treasured up by the same Word, being kept for fire, to a day of judgment and destruction of wicked men. 8But, my dear friends, don’t let this one thing be hidden from you: that with Yahuah one day is as 1,000 years, and 1,000 years as one day. 9Yahuah is not slow in dealing with His promise (as people consider slowness) but is actually being patient toward us, not wishing that any perish but that everyone would come to repentance. 10But the day of Yahuah (THE RETURN OF YAHUSHA) will come as a thief in the night, in which the Heaven will pass away with a great noise, and the elements will melt with intense heat, and the Earth and the works that are in it will be burned up.11Seeing all these are to be destroyed in this way, what kind of people ought you to be in set-apart behaviour and reverence, 12looking for and hastening the coming of the Day of Yahuah, through which the Heaven will be destroyed, being set on fire, and the elements melt with intense heat! 13But according to His promise we wait for a New Heaven and a New Earth in which righteousness dwells. (THE NEW CITY CANNOT BE RIGHTEOUS UNLESS THE PEOPLE IN IT HAVE BECOME RIGHTEOUS, BEHAVING THE FRUITS OF YAHUSHA'S TWO LOVING ROYAL LAWS). 14So then, my dear friends, looking forward to this, do your utmost to be found by Him in peace, spotless and blameless, 15and consider the patience of our Master as deliverance, as also our beloved brother Paul wrote to you, according to the wisdom given to him".

THE FIRST WORLD WAS INVOLVED IN WATER JUDGMENTS AND WAS A DIFFERENT ORDER TO THE PRESENT WORLD, FOR DURING THIS TIME, THE EARTH WAS LIKE A GREENHOUSE, FOR THERE WAS A RING OR CANOPY OF WATER SURROUNDING THE EARTH IN OUTER SPACE ABOVE THE ATMOSPHERE GIVING 'GLASS-HOUSE' CONDITIONS ON EARTH. GENESIS SAYS, "AND YAHUAH MADE THE FIRMAMENT (EXPANSE, AIR OR ATMOSPHERE) AND DIVIDED THE WATERS THAT WERE UNDER THE FIRMAMENT (SMALL LAKES AND RIVERS ON EARTH), FROM THE WATERS (THE WATERY CANOPY) WHICH WERE ABOVE THE FIRMAMENT".

2. THE SECOND WORLD "AND THE PRESENT HEAVEN AND THE EARTH ARE TREASURED UP BY THE SAME WORD, BEING KEPT FOR FIRE, TO A DAY OF JUDGMENT AND DESTRUCTION OF WICKED MEN...." THE SECOND WORLD IS THE PRESENT ARRANGEMENT. THIS WAS BROUGHT IN AFTER THE TIME OF NOAH, AFTER THE FLOOD. IT CONTINUES TO THE SECOND COMING OF YAHUSHA. FOR AT HIS COMING, THE PRESENT WORLD ORDER AND ARRANGEMENT EXPERIENCES DIVINE FIRE (NOT FIRE FROM THIS DIMENSION IE THE SUN), AND YAHUSHA CALLS THIS TRANSFORMATION "THE REBIRTH”:


MATT.19 :

"And Yahusha said to them, “truly I say to you, when the Son of Man sits on the Throne of His esteem, you who have followed Me in the REBIRTH / REGENERATION will also sit on 12 Thrones, judging the 12 Tribes of Israel". (A NEW PERFECTED BRIDE!) 


HERE THE EARTH IS NOT MERELY CLEANSED AND RENOVATED, BUT FRACKLED UP TO BE REGENERATED, REBORN (ANEW) TO ESTEEM AND BEAUTY AND CLIMATE, JUST AS THE GARDEN OF EDEN WAS, FOR ALL ETERNITY.

HEBREW UNDERSTANDING for

"RESTORE":

To gather for any purpose; to receive, take away, i.e. remove (destroy, leave behind):--assemble, bring, consume, destroy, felch, gather recover (another from leprosy), surely take away, utterly withdraw.

JUST AS THE FIRST GENESIS CREATION ORDER AND THE FIRST ADAM (NOW CORRUPTED) YAHUSHA USHERED IN A NEW GENESIS CREATION ORDER WHICH HE BEGUN AT HIS ARRIVAL AS THE SECOND ADAM, A NEW SPECIE OF HUMAN DIVINITY AND A PROCESS OF CREATION THAT WILL CLIMAX AT HIS RETURN WHEN HE DESTROYS THIS WHOLE DIMENSION WITH THE POWER OF HIS PERFECTION AND FINISHED HIS ORDER WITH A NEW HEAVEN AND EARTH - BRIDAL MARRIAGE HOME ! 

3. THE THIRD WORLD "NEVERTHELESS, WE, (ACCORDING TO HIS PROMISE), LOOK FOR A NEW HEAVEN AND A NEW EARTH WHEREIN DWELLS RIGHTEOUSNESS". THIS IS WHAT JOHN SEES. THE THIRD WORLD IS THAT NEW HEAVEN AND NEW EARTH WHICH IS THE ORDER OF ETERNITY IN PERFECT AND COMPLETE WITNESS AND TESTIMONY TO HIS LIVING WORD.

SO PETER RECOGNISES THE CONNECTION BETWEEN DELIVERANCE AND NEW CREATION ALSO AND  SPEAKS OF A LITERAL NEW HEAVENS AND NEW EARTH. BUT WHAT IS EVEN MORE FASCINATING IS THAT BY PETER’S ERA IT WAS WIDELY UNDERSTOOD THAT ALL PHYSICAL THINGS WERE COMPOSED OF ELEMENTS (SOMETHING THAT MODERN SCIENCE AGREES WITH) SO PETER EVEN GIVES US THE MEANS BY WHICH  THE  OLD  HEAVENS  AND

EARTH WILL DISAPPEAR AND A NEW HEAVENS AND EARTH WILL REPLACE THEM. HE SAYS THAT THE ELEMENTS THAT CURRENTLY FORM ALL THINGS WILL MELT AND DISINTEGRATE (FRACKLE) AND IT WILL BE CAUSED BY INTENSE DIVINE HEAT.

HOWEVER THIS IS NOT SOMETHING THE BRIDE SHOULD WORRY ABOUT; RATHER WE SHOULD WELCOME IT, BECAUSE HE SAYS: "BUT ACCORDING TO HIS PROMISE, WE WAIT FOR THE NEW HEAVENS AND NEW EARTH, IN WHICH RIGHTEOUSNESS DWELLS“. THAT IS, WHEREAS THE CURRENT HEAVENS AND EARTH HAVE BEEN IRRETRIEVABLY CORRUPTED BY EVIL AND SIN, WHICH HAS BECOME ITS NATURE, AND RIGHTEOUSNESS DOES NOT DWELL IN THIS UNIVERSE. BUT THE NATURE OF THE NEW HEAVENS AND EARTH WILL BE INCREDIBLY RIGHTEOUS AS AN INHERITANCE FOR THOSE WHO ENDURE THE SPIRIT & FIRE TRANSFORMATION OF YAHUSHA'S VEIN TO BECOME DELIVERED AND INCREDIBLY RIGHTEOUS !


So the new heavens and earth will not be a redecorating, a remodelling, or a thorough scrubbing of sin out of the old earth, (as people teach - using old texts out of context, that state the earth will be in existence forever). Obviously because of Yahusha’s patterns and principles, the new heavens and earth will have some familiarities and similarities to the old, but all will be brand new right down to the elemental level.

THE MOST CURRENTLY ACCEPTED THEORY OF CREATION IN THE SCIENTIFIC WORLD IS THAT A LONG TIME AGO ALL MATTER AND ENERGY WAS COMPACTED DOWN TO A TINY POINT. ESSENTIALLY THAT TINY POINT WAS THE ENTIRE UNIVERSE. THEN FOR SOME INEXPLICABLE REASON IT EXPLODED AND EXPANDED AT AN UNIMAGINABLE RATE. WHAT IS IMPORTANT FOR OUR PURPOSES TODAY IS THAT THROUGH YEARS OF SCIENTIFIC INQUIRY, THE EVIDENCE IS CLEAR AND CONSISTENT THAT THE FIRST ELEMENTS FORMED IN THE UNIVERSE (THE FIRST BUILDING BLOCKS OF THE PHYSICAL,

AND EVEN HEAVY METALS LIKE IRON AND GOLD WERE FORMED. THEN AS THE AMOUNT OF THEM INCREASED THEY COLLIDED WITH EACH OTHER, CLUNG TOGETHER, AND FORMED ENOUGH MASS TO PUT GRAVITY TO WORK AND SO LARGER AND LARGER OBJECTS IN SPACE EMERGED OVER EONS OF TIME. OF COURSE THIS `EONS OF TIME’ THAT SCIENTISTS SPEAK OF WAS MERELY SECONDS AS THE POWER FROM YAHUAH’S LIVING WORDS CREATED SUCH ATOMIC EXPLOSIONS LIKE THE CONTENTS OF THE MERE SUN.

NOW LET'S SEE HOW SCIENTISTS NOW BELIEVE "CREATION" HAPPENED, AND  YOU'LL NOTICE HOW SCRIPTURALLY FAMILIAR IT SOUNDS. SCIENTISTS ARE THRILLED TO DISCOVER THIS CREATION PROCESS; BUT IT ALSO LEAVES THEM WITH AN UNCOMFORTABLE DILEMMA, BECAUSE (LACKING ANOTHER EXPLANATION) SOMETHING OR SOMEONE MUST HAVE INITIATED THE CREATION PROCESS AND WHOEVER IT WAS HAD TO EXIST BEFORE CREATION.

MATERIAL UNIVERSE) WERE THE SIMPLEST ONES: HYDROGEN AND HELIUM. THOSE TWO ELEMENTS STILL COMPRISE THE BULK OF FREE FLOATING ELEMENTS IN THE UNIVERSE. BUT, WITH THE INTENSE HEAT OF THE CREATION EXPLOSION STILL LINGERING, THESE HYDROGEN AND HELIUM ELEMENTS (BY MEANS OF THE PROCESS OF CONTINUING FUSION) ADDED MORE ELECTRONS AND PROTONS TO THEIR ATOMS AND BECAME OTHER ELEMENTS. AND THROUGH THAT SAME INTENSE HEAT, THOSE OTHER AND NEWER ELEMENTS FUSED TOGETHER WITH YET OTHER FREE FLOATING ELECTRONS AND PROTONS AND BECAME EVEN MORE ELEMENTS. IN TIME, ELEMENTS LIKE NITROGEN AND OXYGEN, CARBON,

THE POINT IS THIS: WHILE IN NO WAY WAS PETER SPEAKING TO US IN SCIENTIFIC TERMS, AND WHEN HE SPOKE OF THE ELEMENTS HE WAS ONLY THINKING IN TERMS OF WIND, EARTH, FIRE AND WATER (WHICH, SCIENTIFICALLY SPEAKING ARE NOT ELEMENTS AT ALL) HE HAD LEARNED ABOUT THE GENERAL PROCESS OF THE ENDING OF THE UNIVERSE AND CREATION OF A NEW ONE, AND PASSED IT ON TO US. IT WOULD INVOLVE INTENSE HEAT, MELTING AND DISSOLVING (FRACKLING) WHAT EXISTS NOW BACK DOWN INTO IT’S BASIC INVISIBLE ELEMENTS AGAIN, AND THEN CREATING THE EARTH ANEW AND THE UNIVERSE AGAIN. YET AS WE WILL SEE IN REV 21 AND 22, THE NEW CREATION BEARS STRIKING DIFFERENCES FROM THE ORIGINAL.

COLOSSIANS 1:14-20

14It is through His son that we have redemption - that is, our sins have been forgiven. 15For He is the image  of the invisible Alahim. He is supreme over all creation as it’s firstborn, 16because in connection with Him were created all things- in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones, rulerships or authorities- they have all been created through Him and for Him. 17He existed before all things, and He holds everything together. 18And He is the head of the body (His Assembly) and the beginning, the first-born from the dead, that He might become the one who is first and preeminent in all. 19Because in Him all the fulness of the only living Alahim was pleased to dwell, 20and through Him all were completely restored to favour, whether on earth or in the heaven, having made peace through the blood of His stake”.

SO WHAT WILL IT BE:

EARTHLY or SPIRITUAL

???

REVELATION.21


1And I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the former heaven and the former earth had passed away, (FRACKLED UP) and the sea is no more.


THE TERM "SEA" IS USED BOTH LITERALLY AND SYMBOLICALLY THROUGHOUT THE SCRIPTURE. HOWEVER THE FIRST THING FOR US TO REALISE IS THAT FOR JOHN (A JEW WRITING IN THE 1ST CENTURY) THE LITERAL "SEA" WOULD ONLY HAVE BEEN THE MEDITERRANEAN SEA. THAT IS, WHEN A JEW SPOKE ABOUT "THE SEA" IT WAS UNDERSTOOD THAT IT WAS THE ENORMOUS BODY OF SALT WATER THAT FORMED THE WESTERN BOUNDARY OF THE PROMISED LAND. WHEN THEY WERE REFERRING TO OTHER SEAS, SUCH AS THE RED SEA, THEY WOULD CALL THEM BY NAME. HOWEVER THERE WERE OTHER USES FOR THE WORD "SEA" AS WELL. FOR JEWS IN JOHN'S DAY (AND FOR CENTURIES EARLIER) THE SEA SYMBOLISED THE RESTLESS, TURBULENT NATURE OF THE WORLD.

FOR THE MOST PART, "THE SEA" WAS SEEN AS A POWERFUL AND DANGEROUS FORCE, PRODUCING EVIL AND CHAOS. THIS BELIEF CAME FROM THE TORAH WHERE IN THE CREATION ACCOUNT WE READ:

GENESIS 1 

"In the beginning Alahim created the heavens and the earth. And the earth was without form and void, and darkness was on the face of the deep, and the spirit of Alahim hovered over the surface of the water".

THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE MASKS THE REASON WHY THE JEWS TOOK THIS PASSAGE IN THE DARK, OMINOUS WAY THEY DID. THE HEBREW WORD USED FOR "DARKNESS" IN THIS INSTANCE IS CHOSHEK, WHICH MEANS A SPIRITUAL DARKNESS, SOMETHING THAT IS OBSCURED, USUALLY BY DECEPTION. SO WE FIND YAHUAH HOVERING OVER THIS CHAOTIC "DEEP" THAT WAS SPIRITUALLY DARK. IN THE SCRIPTURE AND IN OTHER JEWISH WRITINGS THE SEA ALSO OFTEN REPRESENTED THE REBELLIOUS GENTILE NATIONS THAT CONSTANTLY OPPRESSED YAHUAH’S CHOSEN PEOPLE. IN REVELATION THE SEA WAS THE TRANSPORTATION HIGHWAY FOR THE WORLD'S GREEDY MERCHANTS AND THE IDOLATERS WHO REVELLED IN NIMROD’S BEASTLY BABYLON SYSTEM, AND IT WAS OUT OF THIS SYMBOLIC SEA THAT THE DEMONIC SEA BEAST WOULD ARISE.

AND YET IN ANOTHER SETTING "THE SEA" WAS A NICKNAME FOR “THE MOLTEN SEA”, A GIANT BRONZE WATER LAVER THAT SAT JUST OUTSIDE THE DOOR INTO THE TEMPLE, WHERE PRIESTS WOULD PURIFY THEMSELVES BEFORE ENTERING BY WASHING WITH THE LIVING (RUNNING) WATER THAT THE LAVER HELD. SO NOT ONLY WILL THE MEDITERRANEAN SEA OF SALT WATER BE GONE IN THE NEW EARTH (INFACT ALL THE WORLD'S OCEANS), BUT SO WILL ALL THE EVIL, OPPRESSIVE ASPECTS OF THE WORLD ... AND ESPECIALLY THE NEW EARTH WILL HAVE NO TEMPLE IN NEW JERUSALEM, SO IT FITS THAT THERE WILL BE NO MORE WATER LAVER (NICKNAMED "THE SEA") FOR THE PURIFICATION OF PRIESTS, BECAUSE THERE WILL NO LONGER BE AN EARTHLY PRIESTHOOD. SO THE SEA WILL BE GONE IN EVERY RESPECT.

ECCLESIASTES 1:7

7All the rivers run into the sea, yet the sea never overflows. To the place from which the rivers come, there they return again. 8All matters are wearisome, no one is able to speak of it. The eye is not satisfied with seeing, nor the ear filled with hearing. 9What has been is what shall be, what has been done is what shall be done, and there is nothing new under the sun. 10Is there a matter of which it is said, “See, this is new”? It was here already, long ago. 11There is no remembrance of former ones, nor is there any remembrance of those that are to come by those who come later on”.


EPHESIANS 2:5

"5Even when we were dead in trespasses, made us alive together with Messiah – by favour you have been delivered – 6and raised us up together, and made us sit together in the heavenlies in Messiah Yahusha, 7in order to show in the coming ages the exceeding riches of His favour in kindness toward us “.


THE SEAS GATHERED TOGETHER, DIVIDE THE EARTH INTO ITS ISLANDS AND CONTINENTS, AND SPEAK OF BARREN WATERS. IN THE NEW CITY OF YAHUSHA, THERE WILL BE A RIVER OF YAHUSHA, FLOWING FROM HIS THRONE, WATERING THE FRUITFUL TREES OF ETERNAL LIFE FOR HIS BRIDE. FROM THE 'RIVERS OF GENESIS' WILL FLOW THE ETERNAL TRUTHS OF YAHUSHA INTO THE 'SEA OF FULFILMENT' IN THE BOOK OF REVELATION. NO MORE SEA, BUT THE RIVER OF YAHUSHA’S PERENNIAL FRESHNESS WILL FLOW FOREVER AND EVER. IN THE ETERNAL STATE, THERE WILL BE NO NEED OF SEAS TO SEPARATE THE PEOPLES OF YAHUSHA. THE RIVER OF LIFE REPLACES THE SEAS OF SALT, AND IT IS WATER ETERNALLY FRESH, NEVER OF BARRENNESS!

HEBREWS 1:10-12  (from Ps 102:25)

“And you, Master, founded the earth in the beginning, and the Heaven are the work of Your hands. They shall perish, but you remain. And they will all grow old like a garment, and like a mantle you will fold them up, and they will be changed. But You are the same, and Your years will not fail.”

THE FIRST HEAVEN AND THE FIRST EARTH WILL NOT EVEN COME INTO MIND. THEY HAVE WAXED OLD, THEY HAVE DECAYED AS AN OLD GARMENT, THEY ARE FOLDED AWAY, RESERVED UNTO FIRE. SIN BEGAN IN THE FIRST HEAVEN AND EARTH. YAHUSHA PROVIDES A NEW HEAVEN AND NEW EARTH.

"BEHOLD, I MAKE ALL THINGS NEW".


YAHUSHA FINISHES ALL THINGS NEW WITH THE NEW HEAVEN AND THE NEW EARTH. IT APPEARS THAT SATAN HAD HIS 'LITTLE SEASON' IN BOTH. YAHUSHA HAS NOT REVEALED ALL THAT IS TO TAKE PLACE IN ETERNITY, FOR OUR MINDS CANNOT GRASP THE VASTNESS OF HIS UNIVERSE OF WORLDS. ASTRONOMERS GIVE US SOME LITTLE IDEA OF THE VASTNESS OF THE UNIVERSE, THE STARRY HEAVENS. OUR PLANET IS JUST SMALL IN COMPARISON WITH OTHER PLANETS. 

HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS AND EVEN BILLIONS OF LIGHT YEARS AWAY. HOW CAN FINITE MAN IN THE FLESH COMPREHEND SUCH VASTNESS? YAHUSHA HAS SOME PLAN IN HIS MIND IN CREATING SUCH AN AMAZING UNIVERSE.


Yahusha is heir of the universe of worlds and His Bride are joint-heirs with Him. What will this old heaven and old earth mean when all passes away and the redeemed are transformed and transported into a new heaven and new earth? . . . absolutely nothing . . . it will never be thought of again !!! 

SCIENTISTS TELL US THAT THE WHOLE SOLAR SYSTEM IS ABOUT FIVE BILLION MILES IN DIAMETER. THE NEAREST STAR, THEY SAY, IS SOME 26 TRILLION MILES AWAY. LIGHT TRAVELLING AT THE SPEED OF 186,000 PER SECOND REQUIRES OVER FOUR YEARS TO TRAVEL THIS DISTANCE. SCIENTISTS SAY THAT OUR OWN GALAXY, THE MILKY WAY, IS COMPOSED OF A 100 BILLION STARS, SOME MUCH LARGER THAN OUR SUN, AND THE DISTANCE ACROSS THE SYSTEM IS SOME HUNDRED THOUSAND LIGHT YEARS. THE UNIVERSE IS POPULATED WITH MILLIONS OF GALAXIES AND SOME OF THEM ARE 

HOW AMAZING MUST THIS NEW ARRANGEMENT BE FOR THE OLD TO NEVER EVEN ENTER OUR MINDS? NOT EVEN A MEMORY ... ALL IS NEW & FRESH WITH YAHUSHA FOR THOSE WHO HAVE FOLLOWED HIM TO THE DEATH AND NEW COVENANT RESURRECTION THROUGH HIS DELIVERANCE VEIN OF SPIRIT AND FIRE !!

N   E   W

DID YOU KNOW THAT YOU ARE A NEW CREATION 

IN A NEW BLOOD-COVENANT WITH YAHUSHA?

HE HAS CHOSEN YOU FOR THIS !

THROUGH YAHUSHA ALAHIM'S VEIN WE CAN BECOME DELIVERED FROM THE CORRUPT SPIRIT IN OUR FLESH AND BECOME JOINT HEIRS TO INHERIT ALL THE COVENANT BLESSING PROMISED TO MANKIND FROM THE VERY BEGINNING. HISTORY THROUGH TIME MOVES FORWARD AS DOES YAHUSHA'S VEIN SO WE DO NOT LIMIT OUR ALAHIM AND INTERPRET HIM THROUGH THE CONTEXTUAL EYES OF HISTORICAL PATRIARCHS AND PROPHETS IN SCRIPTURE, BUT INSTEAD WE SEE THAT ALL THESE RIGHTEOUS MEN AND WOMEN HAD THEIR EYES FIXED FIRMLY ON A FUTURE TIME AND PROMISE, OF A LAND, A HOME, A BLESSING AND ETERNAL INHERITANCE INVOLVING THEIR SEED. AND SO THROUGH YAHUSHA'S NEW COVENANT BRIDE, HE TRANSITIONS EVERYTHING IN THE NATURAL, TO THE SPIRITUAL REALM OF HIS MAGNIFICENT KINGDOM SO THAT THROUGH A NEW HEAVEN AND EARTH IT MAY BE SAID 'ON EARTH AS IT IS IN HEAVEN ... FOR THEY (LIKE US) WILL ALL BE ONE - TRANSFORMED NEW, PERFECT AND OVERCOME BY THE POWER OF THE WASHING OF THE WATER OF THE WORD WHICH IS YAHUSHA ALAHIM, THE FIRST AND THE LAST THE BEGINNING AND THE END ... THE ONLY MOLTEN SEA OF CLEANSING NEEDED!
