Revelation 21:1 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.
2 Then I, John, saw the holy city, New Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.
3 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.
4 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.”
5 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.”
6 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.
7 He who overcomes shall inherit all things, and I will be his God and he shall be My son.
8 But the cowardly, unbelieving, abominable, murderers, sexually immoral, sorcerers, idolaters, and all liars shall have their part in the lake which burns with fire and brimstone, which is the second death.”
The three major feasts point to the three major harvests. Each of these harvests have the three major classifications of people depicted: The overcomers, the church, and the sea of humanity. Love is not wasteful and every vessel created by FATHER will be utilized and restored in some fashion. Nothing will be fully discarded. The Potter may have to rework the clay but in the end, the clay is formed into a vessel of honor. Remember, we all started out as vessels of dishonor.
The tumultuous sea of humanity is no more. FATHER’S great grace and mercy have removed all the inhabitants of the sea and restored them to HIM. Among those in this sea are: the cowardly, unbelieving, abominable, murderers, sexually immoral, sorcerers, idolaters, and all liars. Their sin and lawlessness are to be fully purged from them so that they can become inhabitants of the new earth. Paul understood this great Plan in Romans chapter 8:
18 For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us.
19 For the earnest expectation of the creation eagerly waits for the revealing of the sons of God.
20 For the creation was subjected to futility, not willingly, but because of Him who subjected it in hope;
21 because the creation itself also will be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God.
22 For we know that the whole creation groans and labors with birth pangs together until now.
23 Not only that, but we also who have the firstfruits of the Spirit, even we ourselves groan within ourselves, eagerly waiting for the adoption, the redemption of our body.
“Thy Kingdom come” has been the prayer of billions and John is shown the reality coming forth in the Revelation of Our Lord Jesus Christ. In the wondrous majesty of FATHER’S Plan, the current age will come to a close. The Bride is being made ready and the revelation of Love is being manifested for the whole world to see. The sea will be drained of its inhabitants who are unworthy to attend the marriage feast but we can rest assured that FATHER will purge all of mankind of its unrighteousness through the refiner’s fire. As men’s eyes are opened, they will weep in sorrow for their past acts but those tears will be lovingly wiped away. All things will pass away, behold all things become new.
FATHER’S Love is true and faithful. We can trust HIM Who Loves us unconditionally. HIS Divine Intent is without variation:
James 1:17 Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and comes down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shadow of turning.
Jesus Christ is the Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. I believe the Gospel of John to be the first Gospel as he begins this Gospel with:
John 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 He was in the beginning with God. 3 All things were made through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made. 4 In Him was life, and the life was the light of men. 5 And the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it.
Now John the Beloved is tasked with writing the final Gospel:
Revelation 1:1 The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave Him to show His servants—things which must shortly take place. And He sent and signified it by His angel to His servant John, 2 who bore witness to the word of God, and to the testimony of Jesus Christ, to all things that he saw. 3 Blessed is he who reads and those who hear the words of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written in it; for the time is near.
This final book brings forth the fruition of Good News! John sees into the spiritual realm and the plan is fully laid out in the Spirit for him to record. Its mysteries are kept in place until the initiated are ready for them to be revealed. These mysteries have been hidden in plain sight and FATHER knew that men would wrongly interpret these mysteries by their soulish intent and perspective. The Key to opening the mysteries is found within the revelation of Love, FATHER’S primary character. Jesus Himself proclaimed He is the Alpha and Omega. We must embrace that reality as we prepare for the new Heaven and the new earth. Whether we embrace it or not, it is coming. Those who know FATHER are being prepared, those who don’t will have quite an awakening at the appropriate time. Love is the key. Think about the following:
1 John 4:7 Beloved, let us love one another, for love is of God; and everyone who loves is born of God and knows God.
8 He who does not love does not know God, for God is love.
Can it be said any clearer than this?
