And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea. Revelation 21:1
After those who have not manifested the God within have been removed from the earth and no longer incarnate, a new heaven (consciousness) and new earth (government & organizational structures) manifests. In this new way of life truth no longer has to be compromised to deal with those of lower consciousness but is now geared to a much higher level than with the old earth.
One of the main differences in the new earth is that there is "no more sea." The sea stands for the lower emotional-astral-desire nature. The inhabitants of this new world are governed by higher spiritual feelings, intuition and higher mind. Lower desire and lower emotion no longer have any dominant sway and are non existent as far as having any influence - hence no more sea.
And I John saw the holy city, New Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband. Revelation 21:2
Just as there is a new heaven and earth there is also a new city - a New Jerusalem. Jerusalem was a city where the faithful Jews lived in the days of John. Even so, it was far from perfect and was subject to war, pain and much conflict. The New Jerusalem symbolizes the life of the people in our future world where peace and brotherhood is firmly established.
The next two verses explain how life in the New Jerusalem will be different from the old.
And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be with them, and be their God. Revelation 21:3
This is not telling us that some being will come sit on a throne as God and live with us, but a much higher presence will be common to humanity than it is today. All people will have soul contact and many will have direct contact with the monad, their true source and share a oneness with God. In some measure each inhabitant will sense the presence of God within and without and seek to follow its direction.
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. Revelation 21:4
The new focus of mankind will cause all the pain and suffering that now exists in the world to cease. No longer will there be physical war where man seeks to destroy his brother. No longer will we live in extreme selfishness where man seeks to benefit himself even if others suffer and die. No longer will lower emotion dominate and cause sorrow and painful tears.
Technology and spiritual power both will greatly increase which will heal all diseases and allow people to live in radiant health for as long as they want to stay in physical incarnation.
"there shall be no more death..."
True death is a separation from the Spirit of God. No longer will any be separated from God and without this separation there is no death. Physical life will be extended. Some will live thousands of years, but all will eventually leave the physical and go to the higher worlds. This will not be seen as death, but will be seen as a journey from which they can return if desired.
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. Revelation 21:5
We shall live in a new heaven, a new earth and a new city, but this is just the beginning. Everything will be new, improved and different when compared with today. These words are "true and faithful," meaning we can depend on them coming to pass
And he said unto me, It is done. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. I will give unto him that is athirst of the fountain of the water of life freely. Revelation 21:6
In this new world all the good things that bring joy and happiness will be abundant and readily available. Money will no longer be necessary, for all the needs of humanity will be readily available and any services needed will be done by volunteers.
He that overcometh shall inherit all things; and I will be his God, and he shall be my son. Revelation 21:7
If we overcome all things concerning the lower nature then we can qualify to live in this new heaven and new earth.
Let me be the first to welcome Chris Wallace to the Vast Right-Wing Conspiracy! If the son of Mike Wallace is a member, can Chelsea be far behind?
