JOHN THE REVELATOR SAW THE BRIDE RECEIVING THE HIGHEST REWARD

THE ETERNAL BRIDE OF JESUS CHRIST WILL RECEIVE THE HIGHEST REWARD AVAILABLE TO HIS SAINTS. There will be no cul-de-sacs or dead end streets in New Jerusalem. Every gold paved street will be a Hallelujah Boulevard. The mansions will be far superior than this world can imagine. Every bit of God’s New Heaven and New Earth will be grand and full of bliss, but nothing will compare to the magnificent city called “New Jerusalem.”

This city will be Home to the exclusive Bride of Jesus Christ. One of the Seven Angels out of the Heavenly Temple said the following: “And there came unto me one of the seven angels which had the seven vials full of the seven last plagues, and talked with me, saying, Come hither, I will shew thee the bride, the Lamb’s wife. And he carried me away in the spirit to a great and high mountain, and shewed me that great city, the holy Jerusalem, descending out of heaven from God, Having the glory of God: and her light was like unto a stone most precious, even like a jasper stone, clear as crystal…” (Revelation 21: 9-11) The description of the city is too exact to be understood in any fashion other than literal. Please let me paint a picture of this city that will descend out of heaven after the White Throne Judgment.

The city is a foursquare city.The width is exactly the same on all four sides and the height is equal. Twelve thousand furlongs is fifteen hundred miles. To imagine a city that is fifteen hundred miles square and fifteen hundred miles high that is surrounded by jasper walls is breathtaking. The highest mountain in the world is less than six miles high (Mount Everest – 29,035 feet) and the highest in America is less than four miles high (Mount McKinley – 20,320 feet). We are speaking of a city so massive that our minds can only imagine its grandeur. The city of New Jerusalem is 7,920,000 feet high compared to Mount Everest at 29,035 feet. This comparison makes Mount Everest appear to be nothing but a molehill. The total wealth of this entire earth does not hold a light to the wealth of this new city.

The gold that has been mined and minted during human history is minute compared to the gold in this city. It would not be enough to pave the streets of one level of this city and this will be a city of twelve foundations or levels. Each level will be one hundred and twenty-five miles high or 657,700 feet, over twenty-two times higher than Mount Everest. The height of the walls on each level is 144 cubits or approximately 226 feet. These walls are not provided to keep the glorified saints in or out. Nothing is more beautiful than the present massive stone walls of present day Jerusalem. These stone walls have a golden hue appearance as they are beautifully lit at night or in the sunshine.

But, the walls of New Jerusalem will be primarily wrought of jasper stone. Jasper is a dark green semi-translucent to opaque form of semi-precious chalcedony. Its beauty is rare. It is readily acceptable to a fine polish and has the physical properties of those of quartz. No one would think of building city walls out of jasper in our present world. The expense would be totally prohibitive to the richest person but certainly not to our Father. The entire walled structure of this city, all twelve levels, will be jasper and pure gold. It appears that the outside formation of these walls is jasper, with the interior of the walls being pure gold. The foundations at each level are one hundred and forty-four cubits, which is approximately 226 feet high. These foundations are then garnished with twelve manners of precious stones.

The first foundation is garnished with jasper on jasper. We can certainly expect that the garnishing jasper will be of a different shade as the jasper wall, which comprises the wall’s structure. There are different colors of jasper depending on the location where it is mined. The second level will be garnished with sapphire stones. The color of a pure sapphire is sky blue; using it to garnish the jasper will be extraordinary. The third level will be chalcedony, which can be any color of the rainbow from pale blue to yellow, brown, or gray. The fourth level will be garnished with emeralds. The finest emeralds are more valuable than diamonds; they are magnificent gems of the most beautiful green color.

The stone used to garnish the fifth foundation is sardonyx or onyx. This stone varies in color; it may be translucent or opaque and is often striped. The sixth stone used for garnishment is Sardis, possibly the red variety that is highly polishable and extremely beautiful. The seventh level is garnished with chrysolite, which is a form of topaz of Tarshish. The garnishment of the eighth level is beryl, which is actually colorless, but reflects a great variety of colors depending on foreign substances it contains. It is indeed a precious stone. The ninth garnishing stone on the ninth level of this city is topaz, which is called by some, the “gem of the setting sun.” Sometimes, it is said to be the color of gold or peach. The tenth level is chrysoprasus, which is called the apple and is a light green variety of agate. It is a very rare stone. The eleventh foundation of this magnificent city is jacinth. The jacinth is a red variety of zircon, which is found in square prisms of different shades.

The last of the twelve levels is garnished with amethyst. This is a royal purple and a fitting crown for the city. Imagine the crown of this city of transparent purple quartz that is decorating the jasper translucent walls with the gold within reflecting throughout the foursquare city. Beautify all of this with gates of pearl, each gate one pearl carved into form to be twelve matching gates into the city. Each gate will be fifteen hundred miles high. Glowing through each gate will be streets of pure gold. It is hard to imagine the beauty of a solid pearl gate set on the walls of this city. This city reflects the creative masterpiece of a Groom full of love for His eternal Bride. This city is almost too much to grasp but it will be easily understood when we awake in a glorified state. The Bible says that Heaven is God’s Throne and the earth is His footstool. With this sense of the greatness of “New Jerusalem” we can better understand this golden city.

This is the Bride’s home for eternity. The multitude of saved people that seek no perfection of living or total surrender to His perfect will, will certainly enjoy the city to visit and the glory of worshiping the Father and His Son. They will love the Golden City and bask in the Son light of Gods glory but live across the Father’s great new heaven and earth. “And the nations of them which are saved shall walk in the light of it: and the kings of the earth do bring their glory and honor into it. And the gates of it shall not be shut at all by day: for there shall be no night there. And they shall bring the glory and honor of the nations into it.” (Revelation 21:24-26) It’s up to every saved person to give their total life to serve Him only and to be part of the Bride. It’s the highest honor and reward in our Heavenly future.

We have prepared a notebook entitled, “THE WAR OF GOG AND MAGOG”. This is a comprehensive study of this subject like I have always wanted for myself. Every nation involved will be identified with historic information. The many things coming from Iran, Egypt, Syria, Russia or Israel, etc. will be represented. There will be eight articles written to help explain the development as the study progresses. It is being done in color and will be between 125 and 150 pages. Everything we do is fully guaranteed with our money back promise. We are here to bless not make money. The notebook will be sent immediately with the first stage (Approximately 80 pages) and additional pages to follow. (Notebook $29.95, Email without notebook cover $15.00) Call 1 800 338 7884 or 1 704 391 0588. Email us at secretary@pawcreek.org.

    Are you saying in your title that there is a difference between the Bride of Christ and the saints? Aren’t all of the saints the Bride of Christ?
    ,

    A GREAT QUESTION!!!!!!!!!!! Lainey

    Every saved person will be rewarded according to their works. ” And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be.” (Revelation 22:12) The highest reward is the Brideship of Christ. Listen to Apostle Paul, “Every man’s work shall be made manifest: for the day shall declare it, because it shall be revealed by fire; and the fire shall try every man’s work of what sort it is. If any man’s work abide which he hath built thereupon, he shall receive a reward. If any man’s work shall be burned, he shall suffer loss: but he himself shall be saved; yet so as by fire.” (I Corinthians 3: 13-15) It is evident when you read the last scripture in this article that saved people will populate the New Heaven and the New earth. “And the nations of them which are saved shall walk in the light of it: and the kings of the earth do bring their glory and honour into it.” (Revelation 21:24) The whole Bible is the true Words of God and you must learn to believe all of it or none of it.

    Matt.5:19 Jesus tells us will be great in His kingdom. Jesus Feast Days and 7th day Sabbath are His testimonies of himself. The people who keep them will be the Bride. 1Co.10:21 Ye cannot drink the cup of the Lord, and the cup of the devils; ye cannot be partakers of the Lord table, and the table of the devils. All christian who keep sunday and easter and christmas are partakers of the devils table and cup. Poor Israel cut down a tree and put gold and silver on it. Look what it got then. Curses on the land captivity. Christians pray against abortion. Its one of the curses Jesus sends for changing His Torah. Lev.26:22 Send wild beasts {abortion doctors] to rob you of your children. Did not Jesus curses the fig tree for not having no figs. For He is the Word.

    Brother Chambers, I love to paint–using acrylics and oils and all sorts of media, but I have just sat on this earthly plain and tried to view this magnificence in my mind. I’ve also studied stone and its features for about thirty years. Our God has blessed us with so much beauty in His creations to ponder and appreciate and use for His glory while we’re still bound by gravity. I understand the descriptive words in your article–but it’s HIS MAJESTY, HIS GLORIOUS APPEARING, the untold span of what is prepared for Christ’s bride that my soul, and your soul, and all of His Children are pining for.

    Thank you for this vision that you’ve explained with such gracious vision. I’m straining against the dark glass wanting to see Face to face.

    Excellent description of the New Jerusalem. I can imagine John must have carried what he saw with him the rest of his life, and considering his advanced age at the time he was given Jesus’ revelation, his wait to actually get to live there wasn’t a long one.

    Anyone who allegorizes what John told us he saw is totally missing the grandeur of what lies ahead for believers. John’s precise description is certainly one of a real place, as is his account if what he saw happening to the Earth during the Tribulation.

    It’s unfortunate that even before organized religion fell into apostasy, the Book of Revelation, and prophecy in general, was generally ignored.

    So, it’s no real surprise that just like the religious institution of Jesus’ time, it can’t see the signs of these times any better than they could 2000 years ago.

    SHINING CITY ON THE HILL – NEW JERUSALEM

    Dear Joe Chambers,

    All the RAPTURED CHURCH AGE SAINTS will live in the New Jerusalem. If that is where we go right after the Rapture or after death, both OLD TESTAMENT SAINTS AND NEW TESTAMENT SAINTS WILL BE THERE. Abraham looke forward to this. THAT’S WHY HE LIVED INTENTS AND NEVER BUILT A HOUSE IN LAND OF ISRAEL. If the rapture takes up all the Old Testament Saints and New Testament saints, all these will be in the New Jerusalem if it is already there. Then the TRIBULATION SAINTS COME AND JOIN US THERE TOO, AS THEY DIE. If this does not come into existence until after the Millennium and the White Throne Judgment, then we will go to the OLD HEAVEN. The old Heaven is where SATAN ATTEMPTED HIS REVOLUTION AGAINST GOD. At end of Millenium the Old Heaven and Pass away in fiery judgment. In that case we will wait 1000 years to get to the New Jerusalem, because God has to build it first. If the NEW JERUSALEM ALREADY EXISTS NOW, then we go straight to it at the rapture. If the Church and the Old Testament Saints go up together in the Rapture, then the Bride is not the only ones there, the Old Testament saints are there too. AND THE TRIBULATION SAINTS WILL COME JOIN US THERE LATER AS THEY ARE MARTYRED OR DIE BY OTHER MEANS. All Church age saints will live there. Possibly the Old Testament saints will live there too. TRIBULATION SAINTS JOIN US THERE LATER. About degrees of rewards. THE STRONGEST SAINTS WILL GET THE BEST NEIGHBORHOODS IN THAT CITY. The weakest saints while still in the city will get the lower income neighborhoods. The GROUND FLOOR HAS 2’000’000 SQUARE MILES OR 1’440’000’000 ACRES. Since the buildings are highrises 1500 mile high, If the buildings has 12ft tall floors like standard highrise office in big cities, the tallest buildings there would be 660’000 FLOORS. That looks like it could hold many times the Earth’s population with countless billions of people. IF IT IS ONE BIG BOX-TYPE BUILDING, IT COULD HAVE A HUGE ATRIUM IN THE MIDDLE LIKE THOSE BIG HOTELS IN BIG CITIES. REMIND OF THE REGENCY HYATT HOTEL IN ATLANTA. MAYBE ALL THE LUXURY APARTMENTS WILL HAVE DIRECT VIEWS TO THE ATRIUM, AND VIEWS TO THE OUTSIDE WITH EXTERIOR WINDOWS. The Jasper that you said was green (if you look at the edge of plate glass, it also is green) was in the exterior walls (like glass window walls on office buildings) reminded of plate glass. THE MULTICOLORED FOUNDATION WITH 12 LAYERS IS LIKE A STAINED GLASS WINDOW OR LIKE A TIFFANY LAMP. THAT’S LIKE LIVING IN A GLASS HOUSE BECAUSE YOU CAN SEE THROUGH ALL THE WALLS AND FLOORS. WHEN RONALD REAGAN TALKED ABOUT THE SHINING CITY ON THE HILL, IT MUST BE THAT ONE.

    Sincerely,

    Keith Black
