"And I John saw the Holy City . . . and I saw no temple therein: for
the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb are the temple of it. And the city
had no need of the sun, neither of the moon, to shine in it: for the
glory of God did lighten it, and the Lamb is the light thereof."
"And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be
no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any
more pain: for the former things are passed away.
"And He that sat upon the throne said, 'Behold, I make all things new.'
And He said unto me, 'Write: for these words are true and faithful.'"
More than six hundred years before these visions to John in Patmos, the
Prophet Isaiah wrote—
"For since the beginning of the world, men have not heard, nor
perceived by the ear, neither hath the eye seen, O God, beside Thee,
what He hath prepared for him that waiteth for Him."
And our Lord Jesus, in the Revelation, says to every one who reads
these words—
"Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If any man hear My Voice, and
open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he
with Me."
The entrance to that Everlasting Home is in listening to this loving
Voice of Jesus Christ now, and by opening the door of our hearts, to
let Him in!
Jesus says: "I am the Door; by ME if any man enter in, he shall be
saved."
