A New Jerusalem Coming To Earth
The city of Jerusalem in Israel is not now called the city of truth. But it soon will be, when Yahweh’s Kingdom is established all over the world. When we consider all the conflicts in the Middle East involving Israel and the Palestinians, the prospects for lasting peace look very dim. To the Jews, Jerusalem was the city of the great prophets, and the capital of the Kingdom of Israel under King David and his son King Solomon. Christians revere the city as the place where Yahshua the Messiah was crucified, and where He taught in the Holy Temple Mount. To the Muslims, the Islamic Mosque of Omar (popularly known as the Dome of the Rock), dominates the Temple Mount. Muslims believe that Muhammad ascended to heaven from that site. Today, the location of the Temple Mount is the most very sought after small piece of real estate by both Jews and Muslims, and very soon, by the Beast power and the Anti-Messiah himself. In our message today, we are going to discuss with you the new Jerusalem that is soon coming to earth from heaven. If you are a true Christian, you should be super excited to read and to learn about this very precious subject matter.
Allow us to give you first the very sobering events that will happen in present Jerusalem prior to a new Jerusalem taking place. The question many people ask is, “What lies ahead for the city of Jerusalem?” The Word of Yahweh (Holy Bible) reveal significant prophetic milestones. Before Yahshua the Messiah’s return to earth, two major events during that time will focus on the city of Jerusalem. The Bible tells us that for 3 1/2 years, Yahweh’s two witnesses will challenge the coming political “Beast” superpower. The book of Revelation states: “And I will give power to my two witnesses, and they will prophesy one thousand two hundred and sixty days, clothed in sackcloth” (Revelation 11:3). Our Heavenly Father Yahweh has always given a witness to the rebels and wicked of this world. At that time the “Beast” and the “False” prophet thinks that it will have gained a victory over the two witnesses, who will be killed and will be dead in Jerusalem for 3 1/2 days. But Almighty Yahweh will resurrect the two dead witnesses—to the shock of their evil persecutors! The Scripture tells us: “Now after the three-and-a-half days the breath of life from Yahweh entered them (the two witnesses), and they stood on their feet, and great fear fell on those who saw them. And they heard a loud voice from heaven saying to them, “Come up here.” And they ascended to heaven in a cloud, and their enemies saw them. In that very same hour there was a great earthquake, and a tenth of the city fell. In the earthquake seven thousand people were killed, and the rest were afraid and gave glory to the Elohim of heaven” (Revelation 11:11-13).
What else will transpire during the 3 1/2 years of the Great Tribulation and the Day of Yahweh? Notice: Then I was given a reed like a measuring rod. And the angel stood saying, “Rise and measure the temple of Yahweh, the altar, and those who worship there. But leave out the court which is outside the temple, and do not measure it, for it has been given to the Gentiles. And they will tread the holy city underfoot for forty-two months” (Revelation 11:1-2). Yes, Bible prophecy is clear. Jerusalem will be conquered by Gentiles and be oppressed for 3 1/2 years, or forty-two months. During this forty-two month period, Jerusalem will be trodden down by the Gentiles. The two witnesses will prophesy for 1,260 days. The real Assembly or Church—true Christians—will be taken to a safe place in the wilderness for 3 1/2 “times” (3 1/2 years)—and the “Beast” power will continue with the lawless and oppressive authority to Saints and the world for 42 months. What will happen at the end of those 42 months? The last of seven trumpets in the book of Revelation announces the establishment of Yahweh’s Kingdom on earth. This heavenly and holy announcement ensures the end of mankind’s rush to destruction and cosmocide. Notice! “Then the seventh angel sounded: “And there were loud voices in heaven, saying, “The kingdoms of this world have become the Kingdoms of Yahweh and of His Messiah, and He shall reign forever and ever” (Revelation 11:15). The resurrection of faithful Christian will take place at the seventh trumpet, or the last trumpet as it is called in 1 Corinthians 15. That is the time when the dead and the alive in Yahshua Messiah at that time will be transformed from mortal beings to immortal spirit beings! They will be born into the royal, divine family of Yahweh!
The end of the book of Revelation gives us a remarkable vision of the time after the Millennial reign of Yahshua the Messiah. The apostle John states: “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 Yahweh, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband” (Revelation 21:1-2). This includes the throne of Almighty Yahweh. John says: “And I heard a loud voice from heaven saying, “Behold the tabernacle of Yahweh is with men” (Revelation 21:3). Yahweh will live with His children! “And He will dwell with them, and they shall be His people. Yahweh Himself will be with them and be their Elohim. And Yahweh 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” (Revelation 21:3-4). And this will happen after the 1,000-year reign of Yahshua the Messiah and the time of judgement of all mankind! Our Heavenly Father Yahweh plans a glorious future for us and for Jerusalem. He also will create new heavens and a new earth, along with a New Jerusalem (Revelation 21:10). Heaven is coming to earth! A new heaven and a new earth! After the Millennial reign of Yahshua Messiah and that of Great White Throne Judgement, these things made new would happen.
At this point you may be excitingly asking yourself, “What is the New Jerusalem that is coming to earth from heaven going to be like?” The Bible says the apostle John was in the Spirit and one of the seven angels showed it to him. In Revelation, John wrote: “And he carried me away in the Spirit to a great and high mountain, and showed me the great city, the holy Jerusalem, descending out of heaven from Yahweh, having the glory of Yahweh. Her light was like a most precious stone, like a jasper stone, clear as crystal. Also she had a great and high wall with twelve gates, and twelve angels at the gates, and names written on them, 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 had twelve foundations, and on them were the names of the twelve apostles of the Lamb. And he who talked with me had a gold reed to measure the city, its gates, and its wall. The city is laid out as a square; its length is as great as its breadth. And he measured the city with the reed: twelve thousand furlongs. Its length, breadth, and height are equal. Then he measured its wall: one hundred and forty-four cubits, according to the measure of a man, that is, of an angel. The construction of its wall was of jasper; and the city was pure gold, like clear glass. The foundations of the wall of the city 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 eight 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 was pure gold, like transparent glass.” (Revelation 21:10-21). Did you grasp it? The Bible clearly states in its Revelation 21:10 that a New Jerusalem is coming to earth from heaven!
In addition to the incredibly magnificent setup of the New Jerusalem, the apostle John also inspiringly spoke about the glory of it. John wrote: “But I saw no temple in it, for Yahweh 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 Yahweh illuminated it. The Lamb is its light.” (Revelation 21:22-23). Further, he said: “Its gates shall not be shut at all by day (there shall be no night there).” (Revelation 21:25). Did you grasp it? The New Jerusalem will not have a sun nor moon, and there will be no darkness there at all! Both Almighty Yahweh and Yahshua the Messiah are the temple there! Yahshua will be the light there! And the true Christians, or Saints are the ones who are going to live there forever! What a wonderful and exciting future awaits the people who are saved of Yahweh and His Begotten Son Yahshua! But Bible warns any one and any thing that defiles, or causes an abomination or a lie, shall by no means enter this coming spiritual New Jerusalem! As Bible clearly and plainly says: “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.” (Revelation 21:27).
In closing, to be a true Christian today is to anticipate being with Yahshua the Messiah in the future here on earth, not in heaven, as so many was taught and were also led to believe! Yahshua will establish a new one-world government and one-world Christian faith that worships the one true Elohim. That may not be a popular idea, but that is what the Bible says Yahshua the Messiah is going to do. And Yahshua is going to change everything. He is going to heal the environment, erase poverty, create a new educational system, institute an economy that is fair for everyone, and offer salvation to a broken and decimated humanity! The Father in heaven Yahweh is calling now those who want to participate in this soon-coming glorious future! To receive that future you must accept Yahshua the Messiah as your Savior! But more than that you must also accept Him as your Master and coming King! That must happen in your life now! And you must be daily living by the true values and real teachings of His Kingdom! To reiterate with you, we proclaim to all the nations and to all the peoples in this world that heaven is coming to earth! A New Jerusalem is coming to earth! Yahshua the Messiah is coming back to a rebellious humanity. But He is also coming back to save humanity! Will you be ready when that time arrives? May you be blessed by this truthful and faithful message. May the Holy Spirit of Yahweh open your eyes, your heart and your mind to this truth we are presenting to you today. All these we ask and pray in the name of Yahshua the Messiah, Amen. Halleluyah, Shalom!
