Revelation 21 - 22

RevelationSteve Gregg
In this text, Steve Gregg discusses Revelation 21-22 and the idea of a new heaven and earth. Gregg notes that the descent of the New Jerusalem and the descent of the Lamb's wife are likely connected to the meeting of the church and Christ at his second coming. The city is depicted as having twelve foundations, each associated with one of the twelve apostles, and it calls to mind the Holy Holies, God's dwelling place among men. Gregg also touches on the idea of renewal and the removal of impurities, as well as the importance of righteous and holy living.
