The New Jerusalem

Last Sunday I preached on Rev 21:1-22:5 concerning the new heaven and new earth, i.e., "the new Jerusalem." Although we all tend to wonder about what eternity will be like, an interesting thing I discovered in preparing that message is that the Bible tends not to answer the questions regarding eternity that most of us ask and is not explicit or clear about most of the things that we are interested in. Nevertheless, in apocalyptic, symbolic language, Rev 21:1-22:5 makes clear that if we are faithful to Christ in this life, we are guaranteed an everlasting existence fantastic beyond our imagination.

Both the audio and PDF of that and other sermons are available for free on the "sermons" page of the ECLEA website: http://www.eclea.net/sermons.html
