THE FORMER HEAVEN & EARTH HAVE GONE & ALL THINGS ARE NEW !
REV.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. 2And I, John, saw the Set-Apart City, the New Jerusalem, coming down out of the heaven from YAHUSHA, prepared as a Bride adorned for her husband.
JOHN SEES THE SET-APART CITY, NEW JERUSALEM, COMING DOWN OUT OF HEAVEN FROM YAHUSHA. THIS EVENT WAS FIRST FORETOLD IN ONE OF ISAIAH'S PROPHECIES. NOTICE THAT HERE THE NEW JERUSALEM IS CALLED "THE SET-APART CITY". BUT HISTORICALLY, JERUSALEM (AND ESPECIALLY JERUSALEM TODAY) HAS BEEN ANYTHING BUT SET-APART. IN SCRIPTURE, JERUSALEM WAS CONSTANTLY CONDEMNED BY YAHUAH’S PROPHETS FOR HER IDOLATRY, BLOODSHED, CORRUPTION, AND SIN, AND WAS REGULARLY PUNISHED FOR IT. SO THE OLD JERUSALEM WAS (AND STILL IS) IN AS MUCH NEED OF REDEMPTION AS ANY OTHER PART OF YAHUSHA’S CREATION.
ISAIAH PLAYS A KEY ROLE IN PROVIDING INFORMATION AND CONTEXT THROUGHOUT REVELATION, BUT PERHAPS NONE GREATER THAN IN THE FINAL 2 CHAPTERS. WHAT HE HAS TO SAY IS SOMETHING WE SHOULDN'T BYPASS SO WE'RE GOING TO READ THE ENTIRE 52nd CHAPTER OF ISAIAH. YOU WILL IMMEDIATELY SEE THAT THE SUBJECT IS THE EVENTUAL REDEMPTION OF JERUSALEM.
ISAIAH 52
1"Wake Up! Wake Up! Get dressed in strength, Come on Zion! Put on your clothing of splendor, Jerusalem, the Set-Apart City! For the filthy uncircumcised and unclean won't come into you anymore. 2Shake yourself from the dust, rise up and sit down Jerusalem. Loose yourself from the bonds of slavery around your neck, O' captive daughter of Zion! 3For YAHUAH says, “You have been sold for no money, and you are not redeemed with silver.
4At first My people went down into Egypt to dwell there, and then Assyria oppressed them without cause. 5And now, what have I here? My people have been taken away again, but no one paid to take them? And those who rule over them make them scream and wail, and My Name is completely hated all day long. 6So now My people will understand Me again, they will know My Name (in that day) for I am the One Who is speaking. See, it is I.
7How pleasant and wonderful is it to see someone coming over the mountains with Good News? Someone announcing that peace and deliverance has come! Someone who says to Zion, “YOUR ALAHIM REIGNS!” 8The voice of your watchmen (THE BRIDE) will lift up their voices, and together they will SHOUT FOR JOY, because eye to eye they see the return of YAHUAH to Zion. 9Break forth into joy, sing together, you ruins of Jerusalem! For YAHUAH will comfort His people, He will redeem Jerusalem.
10YAHUAH will show the Nations His His set-apart arm and level them in His strength. And the whole world will see the deliverance of our Alahim. 11Now Turn Aside from Babylon! Stop That Now! Get Out Of There! Stop Touching What's Unclean! Come out from that Whorish Behaviour and BE CLEAN, for you Priests are the vessels carrying YAHUAH'S presence.
12So you will get out of Babylon, but no one will force you to leave in a hurry! For Yahuah is going before you, and guarding you from behind. 13Look! My servant will succeed in what He has to do, and will be raised to a position of the highest honor and esteem! 14It's true that many were shocked when they saw Him. He was beaten so badly that He no longer looked like a man.15But it's also true that all nations will be amazed at Him soon. Kings will look at Him and be unable to speak. And they will see what they had never been told. And will understand what they had never heard.”
YAHUAH CALLS JERUSALEM "HIS SET-APART CITY" BECAUSE "THE UNCIRCUMCISED AND THE UNCLEAN WILL ENTER YOU NO MORE". IN RETROSPECT WE NOW KNOW THAT 'YAHUAH'S SERVANT' IS YAHUSHA, THE AGENT OF REDEMPTION FOR THE ENTIRE CREATION. AND SO FAR IN REVELATION, YAHUSHA HAS REDEEMED (CREATED ANEW) THE ENTIRE EARTH AND THE HEAVENS (UNIVERSE) AND HAS NOW ALSO REDEEMED (CREATED ANEW) HIS SET-APART CITY (BRIDE) ... JERUSALEM.
AS WE SAW LAST SESSION REGARDING `ALL THINGS NEW', PAUL KNEW THAT THE REDEMPTION OF JERUSALEM IS ALSO NOT SO MUCH AN EVENT BUT MORE A PROCESS, SOMETHING THAT HAS BEEN IN THE WORKS IN HEAVEN FOR A LONG TIME, AND WHICH (FROM JUST A SEED) BEGAN IN HUMAN FLESH AT YAHUSHA'S ARRIVAL.
IN HEBREWS PAUL MAKES AN IMPORTANT STATEMENT ABOUT THIS HEAVENLY NEW JERUSALEM THAT WE SHOULD UNDERSTAND :
HEBREWS 12
18For you have not come to an earthly place that can be seen and touched, like the mountain that the 12 Tribes saw, which was scorched with fire and covered with darkness, gloom, and storms. 19There is no sound of a trumpet or a voice speaking words like those they heard. When they heard the voice, they begged never to hear another word of it. 20They couldn't handle hearing the command: “If anything, even an animal, touches the mountain, it must be killed with stones or shot with an arrow.” 21What they saw was so terrible that even Moses said, “I am shaking with fear and dread!”
22Instead, you've come to Mount Zion, to the city of the Living Alahim YAHUAH, to the Heavenly Jerusalem ... to a place where thousands of Angels have gathered to celebrate. 23YES you've come to the entire gathering and fellowship of the firstborn family, whose names are enrolled in Heaven. You've come to YAHUAH, the judge of all people, and to the spirits of righteous people who've been made new and perfect 24YOU'VE COME INTO YAHUSHA - the One who established the New Blood-Covenant with His people through the sprinkled blood that tells us about better things than the blood of Abel.
Make sure you listen to the One speaking! (YAHUSHA) For if those who ignored the warnings here on earth, didn't escape, then how much more dangerous is it for us who've heard the warnings from Heaven (not from a voice that will only shake the earth, but indeed the whole universe). For all things shakeable will be destroyed so that the unshakeable thing (HIS KINGDOM) can remain. So let's make sure we ENTER INTO THIS UNSHAKEABLE KINGDOM WHICH REIGNS IN FAVOUR ON OUR HEARTS, serving YAHUSHA to please Him in fear and awe ... never forgetting that our Alahim YAHUAH (YAHUSHA) is a consuming fire!
HOW AMAZING IS IT THAT RIGHT BEFORE THESE VERSES IN HEBREWS 12, PAUL EXPLAINS TO US THE TRANSFORMATION PROCESS THROUGH THE FLOGGING, REBUKING AND CHASTISING IN ORDER TO BRING FORTH THE PEACEABLE FRUITS OR RIGHTEOUS BEHAVIOUR !
WHAT WE LEARN IN THE FINAL 2 CHAPTERS OF REVELATION IS THAT IN THE NEW EARTH AND THE NEW JERUSALEM, YAHUSHA WILL NOT BE HIDDEN AWAY IN A TEMPLE, WITH A PHYSICAL BARRIER BETWEEN HE AND HIS PEOPLE (MEANT TO KEEP THEM AWAY FROM HIS SUPREME RADIATING PURITY - A BARRIER THAT IF CROSSED MEANT DEATH FOR THE VIOLATOR, LIKE AT MT. SINAI).
AS HEBREWS 12 NOTES, AT MT. SINAI NO HUMAN OR ANIMAL COULD APPROACH YAHUAH AND LIVE EXCEPT FOR ONE: MOSES. YET BECAUSE OF YAHUSHA AND THE REDEMPTION HE HAS ENABLED, ALL BARRIERS, PHYSICAL AND SPIRITUAL, BETWEEN HE AND MANKIND WILL BE GONE WITH THE NEW EARTH. WE WILL HAVE NO
FEAR IN APPROACHING THE CREATOR OF THE UNIVERSE BECAUSE HIS PERFECT BLOOD HAS MORE POWER TO DELIVER AND REDEEM THAN THE SACRIFICES OF ABEL AND THE BLOOD OF ANIMALS. YAHUSHA WILL TRULY AND COMPLETELY BE ALAHIM WITHIN US, WHICH WAS ALWAYS HIS GOAL.
When Jerusalem is spoken of, it's not so much speaking of the city's infrastructure but rather a shadow of the people who live there and make up it's dwelling. So just as it was not the infrastructure of the old Jerusalem that was condemned as sinful and idolatrous (but the people within), so it will be that the New Jerusalem is representing Yahusha's set-apart, pure and redeemed people.
SO JUST LIKE IN REV.18 WHERE THE GREAT WHORE IS LIKENED TO A CITY (BABYLON), THIS NEW CITY OF JERUSALEM TAKES ON THE NATURE AND QUALITIES OF THE CITY SHE IS CALLED BY (IN HEBREW): ‘YERU-SHALOM’ (CITY OF PEACE). SHE IS A CITY AND PEOPLE OF PEACE BECAUSE 'YAHUAH-SHAMMAH' (YAHUSHA IS THERE - EZEKIEL 48). SHE IS THE BRIDAL FELLOWSHIP AND YAHUSHA’S WIFE.
REV.21 2And I, John, saw the Set-Apart City, the New Jerusalem, coming down out of the Heaven from YAHUSHA, prepared as a Bride adorned for her husband. 3And I heard a loud voice from the Heaven saying, “Look! The Tabernacle (TENT / BOOTH) of YAHUSHA is with men, and He will dwell with them, and they will be His people, and YAHUSHA HIMSELF will be with them and be their Alahim".
THE ULTIMATE
THE TABERNACLE (TEMPLE) OR 'CITY OF YAHUSHA' IS THE ULTIMATE OF ALL PREVIOUS DWELLING PLACES BETWEEN YAHUAH AND MANKIND, FOR ALL OTHERS WERE TYPES AND SHADOWS, SEPARATING THE CLEAN FROM THE UNCLEAN WITH A VEIL, WHICH WAS FULFILLED THROUGH YAHUSHA’S FLESH AS THE ULTIMATE TEMPLE VEIL. AND ONCE PIECED AND BROKEN THE CONTENTS OF THIS EARTHLY VESSEL WAS SHARED AND SOWN INTO HIS BRIDE, TO EMPOWER HER AND ALLOW HER TO ‘WORK OUT HER DELIVERANCE WITH FEAR AND TREMBLING’. YAHUSHA'S OLD BODY WAS CONSUMED ON THE ALTAR AS A LIVING SACRIFICE AND HE WAS BIRTHED ANEW WITH A NEW ULTIMATE FIRSTFRUIT (GLOWING) BODY. SO THIS NEW JERUSALEM IS THE ULTIMATE ETERNAL FULFILMENT OF THE TABERNACLE OF YAHUAH WITH MANKIND AND IT’S NAME FROM THAT DAY FORWARD WILL BE `YAHUSHA IS THERE’ (YAHUAH SHAMMAH), FOR HE IS FINALLY IN THE MIDST OF HIS PEOPLE WITH NO VEIL OF SEPARATION. ( BRIDAL CONSUMMATION )
GENESIS 12:1
"NOW YAHUAH SAID TO ABRAM, "GET YOURSELF OUT OF YOUR COUNTRY, AWAY FROM YOUR FAMILY AND AWAY FROM YOUR FATHER'S HOUSE, AND GO TO THE LAND THAT I'LL SHOW YOU. I WILL MAKE A GREAT NATION FOR YOU, I WILL BLESS YOU, AND WILL MAKE YOUR NAME GREAT - AND YOU ARE TO BE A BLESSING. I WILL BLESS THOSE WHO BLESS YOU, BUT I WILL CURSE ANYONE WHO CURSES YOU - AND ALL THE FAMILIES OF THE EARTH WILL BE BLESSED ."
THE PROMISE GIVEN TO ABRAM (THAT ALL NATIONS WOULD BE BLESSED THROUGH HIS FAMILY) ... FINDS IT'S ULTIMATE FULFILLMENT IN THE ARRIVAL OF THE NEW JERUSALEM, UNIFYING THE BRIDE (FROM ALL NATIONS AND RACES OF THE EARTH) THROUGH THE DELIVERANCE OF YAHUSHA'S BLOOD. ( DIVERSE BRIDE )
REV.21 4And YAHUSHA will wipe away every tear from their eyes, and there will be no more death or mourning or crying. And there will be no more pain, for the former things have all passed (FRACKLED) away.
IN OTHER WORDS THIS IS THE MOST ACCURATE AND GRAPHIC LOOK AT THE END OF THE OLD CREATION AND THE NEW CREATION TO COME .... THAT WE WILL BE GIVEN !
`NO MORE MOURNING OR CRYING' IS A VERSE SPOKEN AT NEARLY EVERY FUNERAL. THE TEARS AND PAIN AND MOURNING FROM DEATH WILL BE GONE, BECAUSE THE OLD ORDER OF THINGS HAS PASSED AWAY AND WITH THE NEW EARTH THERE WILL BE NO MORE DEATH. NOTHING AND NO ONE WILL EVER DIE ... AND ISAIAH SPEAKS ABOUT THE COMING OF THIS DAY ALSO:
ISAIAH 25:8-9
HE WILL SWALLOW UP DEATH FOREVER. YAHUAH ALAHIM WILL WIPE AWAY THE TEARS FROM EVERY FACE, AND HE WILL REMOVE FROM ALL THE EARTH THE DISGRACE HIS PEOPLE SUFFER. FOR YAHUAH HAS SPOKEN. ON THAT DAY THEY WILL SAY, "SEE! THIS IS OUR ALAHIM! WE WAITED FOR HIM TO DELIVER US. THIS IS YAHUAH - WE PUT OUR HOPE IN HIM. WE ARE FULL OF JOY, SO GLAD HE DELIVERED US!"
WE DISCUSSED LAST SESSION THAT THE BRIDE IS NOT THE ONLY PART OF CREATION THAT IS LONGING TO BE REDEEMED (CREATED ANEW) :
ROMANS 8
FOR I RECKON THAT THE SUFFERINGS OF THIS PRESENT TIME ARE NOT EVEN WORTH COMPARING WITH THE MAGNIFICENT ESTEEM THAT'S TO BE REVEALED IN US (OUR NEW CREATION). FOR THE INTENSE LONGING OF THE CREATION EAGERLY WAITS FOR THE REVEALING OF YAHUSHA'S BRIDE. FOR THE CREATION ITSELF WAS ALSO MADE TO SUFFER (NOT BY CHOICE), BUT BECAUSE YAHUSHA ALLOWED IT, FOR ANTICIPATION, SO THAT THE CREATION ITSELF WILL ALSO BE DELIVERED FROM THE BONDAGE OF SIN AND CORRUPTION, INTO THE ESTEEMED FREEDOM OF YAHUSHA'S BRIDE. FOR WE KNOW THAT ALL THE CREATION GROANS TOGETHER, AND SUFFERS THE PAINS OF CHILDBIRTH TOGETHER UNTIL NOW. AND NOT ONLY THE CREATION, BUT WE TOO (WHO HAVE THE FIRST-FRUITS OF THE SPIRIT) ARE ALSO GROANING INSIDE OURSELVES, EAGERLY WAITING FOR THE ADOPTION, THE REDEMPTION OF OUR FLESHLY BODY. FOR IN THIS EXPECTATION WE WERE DELIVERED, BUT EXPECTATION THAT IS SEEN IS NOT ACTUALLY EXPECTATION, FOR WHEN ANYONE SEES, DOES HE EXPECT IT? AND IF WE EXPECT WHAT WE DO NOT SEE, WE EAGERLY WAIT FOR IT WITH ENDURANCE".
WHAT PAUL EXPLAINED WOULD HAPPEN, JOHN NOW SEES IN A POWERFUL VISION. WHAT THEY BOTH RECORD FOR US IS STILL IN THE FUTURE, AT THE DISSOLUTION OF THE EXISTING EARTH AND UNIVERSE AND ITS REPLACEMENT WITH A NEW EARTH AND UNIVERSE.
REV.21 5And He Who was sitting on the Throne said, “See, I make all things NEW.” And He (YAHUSHA) said to me, “Write all this down son, for these words are trustworthy and true.”
6And He said to me, “SEE, IT IS DONE! I am the Alef and the Tau, the Beginning and the End (INCLUDING ALL THAT'S IN THIS BOOK). And I'll give anyone who thirsts, free water to drink from the fountain of life".
BACK IN CHAPTER 20 WE WERE TOLD THAT 'THE ONE' SITTING ON THE GREAT WHITE THRONE WATCHED AS EARTH AND THE HEAVENS FLED FROM HIS PRESENCE (FRACKLED UP). YAHUSHA HIMSELF IS SPEAKING BECAUSE HIS WORDS ARE GIVEN TO US IN THE FIRST PERSON (I, ME). AND WHAT HE SAYS SOUNDS FAMILIAR BECAUSE WE READ SOMETHING SIMILAR IN THE 1ST CHAPTER OF REVELATION.
REVELATION 1:8 "I AM THE 'ALEF’ AND THE ‘TAU,’” (FIRST AND LAST LETTER OF THE HEBREW ALPHABET) SAYS YAHUSHA, ALAHIM OF HEAVEN'S ARMIES ... THE ONE WHO IS, AND WHO WAS AND WHO'S COMING". NO WORD IS OUTSIDE
HIS OMNIPOTENT REIGN!
SO THE CREATOR WHO'S OVERSEEING THE NEW HEAVENS AND EARTH IS THE SAME CREATOR THAT OVERSAW "THE BEGINNING" AS WELL AS THE ONE WHO INSPIRED HIS TRUSTWORTHY FOLLOWER JOHN, MAKING SURE HE WRITES DOWN THE FACT THAT THESE WORDS ARE TRUE AND TRUSTWORTHY. THEN, AS IF TO UNDERLINE IT ALL, YAHUSHA SAYS "IT IS DONE!" THAT IS, SINCE EVERYTHING IS NEW, EVERY ASPECT OF REDEMPTION AND DELIVERANCE IS ALSO COMPLETE. "THE ONE" SITTING ON THE THRONE GOES ON TO SAY THAT HE IS THE ALEF AND THE TAU, THE BEGINNING AND THE END, JUST AS HE DID IN REV 1:8. YAHUSHA IS REVEALING THAT HE IS ACTUALLY THE CREATOR YAHUAH HERE.
"And I'll give anyone who thirsts, free water to drink from the fountain of life".
MUST WE WAIT FOR THE NEW CREATION BEFORE WE CAN DRINK HIS LIVING WATERS?
REV 21: 7"The one who OVERCOMES (WHO STOPS SATAN'S EVIL WORLDLY BEHAVIOUR FROM COMING THROUGH THEIR FLESH) will inherit all this, and I will be their Alahim and they will be My people.
8But as for the cowardly, and untrustworthy, and abominable, and murderers, and those who whore, and drug sorcerers, and idolaters, and all the liars, their reward is the lake which burns with fire and sulphur, which is the second death.”
THERE ARE A NUMBER OF PROMISES OF REWARDS MADE TO THE BELIEVING VICTORS, OR OVERCOMERS, IN YAHUSHA'S LETTERS TO THE 7 FELLOWSHIPS AT THE BEGINNING OF REVELATION ... SOME OF THEM ARE:
1) THE TREE OF LIFE WILL BE AVAILABLE TO THEM
2) THEY WILL BE PART OF NEW TEMPLE DWELLING
3) THEY WILL BE PART OF THE NEW JERUSALEM THAT COMES
4) THEY WILL HAVE YAHUSHA’S NAME WRITTEN ON THEM
5) THEY WILL BE EXCLUDED FROM THE 2ND DEATH
YAHUSHA ALSO PROMISES THAT EVERY OVERCOMER WILL BE SEEN AS A SON/DAUGHTER TO HIM. HOWEVER, FOR THOSE WHO ARE NOT LOYAL TO HIM, THERE IS A DIFFERENT SET OF PROMISES ... VERY DARK ONES TO BE SURE. A SHORTENED LIST IS SUPPLIED IN THE SECOND PART OF THIS VERSE 8 AND IT'S NOT SPEAKING OF THOSE WHO MAY HAVE EVER COMMITED SUCH CRIMES BUT HAVE REPENTED TO YAHUSHA... IT'S SPEAKING ABOUT THOSE WHO HAVE GIVEN THEMSELVES OVER TO THESE SINS AND REVEL IN THEM, MAKING THOSE SINS PART OF THEM. IT IS NOT SO MUCH WHAT SOMEONE HAS DONE, BUT WHO THEY ARE AND CHOOSE TO CONTINUELY BE!
COWARDLY - MEANING TIMID AND FEARFUL BECAUSE OF LITTLE BELIEF.
SOMEONE ALLOWING THEIR FEARS (WRONG THOUGHTS) TO
OVERCOME THEIR BELIEF INSTEAD OF THINKING DIFFERENTLY.
- THIS IS THE EXACT OPPOSITE OF PERSEVERING THROUGH.
UNTRUSTWORTHY - MEANING UNBELIEVING OR WITHOUT BELIEF - SAYING
ONE THING WITH YOUR MOUTH BUT WHEN NO ONE IS
LOOKING, SNEAKILY DOING THE WRONG THING!
ABOMINABLE - VILE, HATEFUL, ABHORRENT, REFERRING TO A BROAD
CATEGORY OF THE WORST OF THE WORST SINS AND SINNERS.
WHORING - SEXUALLY IMMORAL BEHAVIOUR, SEXUAL ACTIVITY OR FLIRTING OUTSIDE OF A MARRIAGE COVENANT - PERFORMED WITH ANOTHER OR BY YOURSELF - PORNOGRAPHY/EROTICA/NUDITY/GENDER REVERSAL, LGBTQI. INTERESTINGLY, PORNOS WAS ORIGINALLY A TERM APPLIED ONLY TO MALES, USUALLY TO A MALE PROSTITUTE (ALWAYS MEANING IT IN THE HOMOSEXUAL SENSE). HOWEVER IN ITS MOST GENERIC SENSE, IT MEANS HAVING SEXUAL RELATIONS OF ANY KIND THAT ARE IMMORAL. AND WHAT IS IMMORAL IS, OF COURSE, DEFINED BY THE LAW OF MOSES. SO OFTEN IN ENGLISH SCRIPTURES PORNOS IS TRANSLATED AS FORNICATOR. HOWEVER THAT IS ACTUALLY A NICER, MILDER WAY OF AVOIDING THE INTENT, WHICH IS TO CALL OUT SODOMITES (MALE AND FEMALE ANAL-SEX).
MURDERER - SOMEONE WHO WON'T STOP MURDERING ... OR REPENT OF IT!
(HATEFUL, AGGRESIVE WORDS ARE ALSO 'MURDERING' TOO)
DRUG-SORCERY - USING DRUGS IN CONNECTION WITH THE OCCULT. MOST ENGLISH SCRIPTURES SAY IT MEANS SORCERERS. THE WORD IS PHARMAKEIA - IT MEANS ONE WHO PREPARES MAGICAL REMEDIES, INVOLVING DRUGS AND THE OCCULT. BECAUSE OF BOOKS AND GAMES LIKE LOTR, HARRY POTTER, D&D WE LAUGH OFF THE IDEA OF SORCERY AND WIZARDRY, THINKING IT FUN AND HARMLESS. HOWEVER IT'S A VERY SERIOUS MATTER TO YAHUSHA, WHO CONSIDERS ANY POWER OUTSIDE OF HIS OWN TO BE A WICKED ABOMINATION.
IDOLATRY - THE WORSHIP OF FALSE DEITIES AND THE CRAVING OF MONEY AND DECADENT WORLDLY THINGS. WE CANNOT COMMIT OUR LIVES TO ACQUIRING ALL THE EXTRAVAGANT THINGS OF THE WORLD AND AT THE SAME TIME SEEK YAHUSHA. AND WE ARE FOOLING OURSELVES WHEN WE TRY. THIS DOESN'T MEAN WE DON'T BE RESPONSIBLE AND WORK AND ACHIEVE, OR THAT YAHUSHA CAN’T BLESS US (USUALLY THROUGH THE WORK OF OUR OWN HANDS, BUT SOMETIMES THROUGH OTHERS) … IT'S MORE AN ISSUE OF PRIORITIES.
LIARS - FAKE - FALSE - DECEITFUL - THE CHIEF ATTRIBUTE OF SATAN. DECEITFULNESS AND DARKNESS GO HAND IN HAND IN THE SCRIPTURE AS THEIR SOURCES ARE SPIRITUAL.
THOSE WITH ANY OF THESE BEHAVIOURS GONE UNCHECKED AND UNREPENTANT WILL NEVER BE ALLOWED ACCESS TO THE FIRST RESURRECTION TO SEE THIS BREATHTAKING NEW CREATION OF THE HEAVENS AND EARTH AND ETERNAL ROYAL CITY ... WE MUST REPENT !!
REV 21: 7"The one who OVERCOMES will inherit all this, and I will be their Alahim and they will be My people. 8But as for the cowardly, and untrustworthy, and abominable, and murderers, and those who whore, and drug sorcerers, and idolaters, and all the liars, their reward is the lake which burns with fire and sulphur, which is the second death.”
OUR EGO & SELF IS AN ABOMINATION TO YAHUSHA AND MUST BE THROWN ON THE ALTAR OF FIRE TO BURN UP SO YAHUSHA CAN SHINE THROUGH US :
2 TIM 3: "In the last days it will be very hard. People will be lovers of only themselves and money. They will be stuck-up and proud ... their ego monstrous! They will be completely disobedient and disrespectful to their parents, ungrateful, wicked, heartless, cruel and full of fierce hatred. Their words will be totally insane, having no self-control, respect or concern for others. These people hate everything that is uplifting and good. They'll be sneaky, careless and puffed up in arrogance, thinking and declaring that they know all and can do anything. Instead of loving Yahusha and meditating on His Living Words as much as possible, they'll be more interested in entertainment, pleasure and the numbing of the mind. They will come out and do a song and dance, pretending to be spiritual, virtuous and obedient, but it's all fake and there's no power there in that rebellious behaviour. So don't have anything to do with people who live like that!"
