...and God will create a new Heavens and a new Earth

One of my favorite topics. Just as God created the universe and all that is through Jesus Christ, so shall it happen again. The angels of God sang together in joy and praise as God created the first world, and it is likely the holy angels and the redeemed from the Earth will witness God create the new heavens and the new earth. This will be part of the wedding supper of the Lamb in my personal understanding.

The old will be destroyed by fire, the new will come into being. The old creation will not be remembered!

What is really exciting to ponder is that the saints will have both a glorious new Earth and Heaven to live in and explore for all eternity.

If you have not received Jesus Christ as your personal Lord and Savior, do not reject him any longer!


Isaiah 65
Judgment and Salvation

1 I was ready to be sought by those who did not ask for me; I was ready to be found by those who did not seek me. I said, "Here am I, here am I," to a nation that was not called by my name. 

2 I spread out my hands all the day to a rebellious people, who walk in a way that is not good, following their own devices;

3 a people who provoke me to my face continually, sacrificing in gardens and making offerings on bricks; 

4who sit in tombs, and spend the night in secret places; who eat pig's flesh, and broth of tainted meat is in their vessels;

5 who say, "Keep to yourself, do not come near me, for I am too holy for you."These are a smoke in my nostrils, a fire that burns all the day. 

6 Behold, it is written before me: "I will not keep silent, but I will repay; I will indeed repay into their bosom 

7 both your iniquitiesand your fathers' iniquities together, says the LORD; because they made offerings on the mountains and insulted me on the hills, I will measure into their bosom payment for their former deeds."

8 Thus says the LORD: "As the new wine is found in the cluster, and they say, 'Do not destroy it, for there is a blessing in it,' so I will do for my servants' sake,and not destroy them all. 

9 I will bring forth offspring from Jacob, and from Judah possessors of my mountains; my chosen shall possess it, and my servants shall dwell there.

10 Sharon shall become a pasture for flocks, and the Valley of Achor a place for herds to lie down, for my people who have sought me. 

11 But you who forsake the LORD, who forget my holy mountain, who set a table for Fortune and fill cups of mixed wine for Destiny,

12 I will destine you to the sword, and all of you shall bow down to the slaughter, because, when I called, you did not answer; when I spoke, you did not listen, but you did what was evil in my eyes and chose what I did not delight in." 

13 Therefore thus says the Lord GOD: "Behold, my servants shall eat, but you shall be hungry; behold, my servants shall drink, but you shall be thirsty; behold, my servants shall rejoice, but you shall be put to shame; 

14behold, my servants shall sing for gladness of heart, but you shall cry out for pain of heart and shall wail for breaking of spirit. 

15 You shall leave your name to my chosen for a curse, and the Lord GOD will put you to death, but his servants he will call by another name. 

16 So that he whoblesses himself in the land shall bless himself by the God of truth, and he who takes an oath in the land shall swear bythe God of truth; because the former troubles are forgotten and are hidden from my eyes.

New Heavens and a New Earth

17 "For behold, I create new heavens and a new earth, and the former things shall not be remembered or come into mind. 

18 But be glad and rejoice forever in that which I create; for behold,I create Jerusalem to be a joy, and her people to be a gladness. 

19 I will rejoice in Jerusalem and be glad in my people; no more shall be heard in it the sound of weeping and the cry of distress. 

20 No more shall there be in it an infant who lives but a few days, or an old man who does not fill out his days, for the young man shall die a hundred years old, and the sinner a hundred years old shall be accursed.

21 They shall build houses and inhabit them; they shall plant vineyards and eat their fruit. 

22 They shall not build and another inhabit; they shall not plant and another eat; for like the days of a tree shall the days of my people be, and my chosen shall long enjoy the work of their hands. 

23 They shall not labor in vain or bear children for calamity, forthey shall be the offspring of the blessed of the LORD, and their descendants with them. 

24 Before they call I will answer; while they are yet speaking I will hear. 

25 The wolf and the lamb shall graze together; the lion shall eat straw like the ox, and dust shall be the serpent's food. They shall not hurt or destroy in all my holy mountain," says the LORD.
