John 14:
2 In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.
3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.
(NOTE: Right now, Christ is preparing a heavenly place for us!)
Here is a glimpse: (Revelation 21:2-6-10-14-16-17-23)
Rev 21:
2 I John, saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven,
6 Jesus said unto me, It is done. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning & the end. I will give unto him that is athirst of the fountain of the water of life freely.
10 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
14 the city had twelve foundations
16 the city lieth foursquare, & the length is as large as the breadth: & he measured the city with the reed, twelve thousand furlongs. The length & the breadth & the height of it are equal.
(NOTE: Furlong 1/8 mile = 660 feet. 1500 miles wide, 1500 miles long, 1500 miles high)
17 And he measured the wall thereof, an hundred and forty & four cubits, according to the measure of a man, that is, of the angel.
(NOTE: walls aprox 216 ft thick made of 10 different precious stones)
21 the twelve gates were twelve pearls: every gate was made from one pearl: & the street of the city was pure gold, as it were transparent glass. (PEARLY GATES!)
23 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
(NOTE: Filled & lite by the Shekhinah Glory of the Lord!)
If you believe that Jesus, the Son of God, bought & paid for your sins on the cross, died & rose again. Then you will be a citizen of the New Jerusalem.
“God raised you up with Christ and seated you with him in the heavenly realms in Christ Jesus” (Ephesians 2:6).
You have “an inheritance that can never perish, spoil or fade” (1 Peter 1:4).
The invitation is extended:
“The Spirit says, ‘Come!’ And let the one who hears ‘Come!’ Let the one who is thirsty come; and let the one who wish take the free gift of the water of life” (Revelation 22:17).
Some numbers for fun:
KJV: 1500 miles high: if you cut in a floor every 12 ft. That would be 660,000 storeys high x 1500 miles long x 1500 miles wide.
Again #'s for fun:
I'm gone say 1 floor every 1000 ft. that would be the the height of an average skyscraper in most usa citys. So, aprox 5 floors per mile x 1500 miles 7,500+ storeys. that would equal the living land mass of aprox 89 earths.
Jacob's Ladder leads to a Gate that opens the door to the 3rd heaven. Gen 28:11-13 16-18
One day soon, God will again, open that gate. And we will see:
Matthew 24:27 For as the lightning comes out of the east, and shines even to the west; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
(NOTE: Speed of light aprox 186,000 miles per second)
Revelation 4:1 (A) After this I looked, and, behold, a door [was] opened in heaven:
Revelation 21:2 I John, saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven
2 In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.
3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.
