My Sheep Hear My Voice- Rev. 21:22

My Sheep Hear My Voice- Rev. 21:22

Before Jesus was crucified He told the disciples to watch and pray, something so simple, but they let their physical bodies take over and they fell back asleep. In these last hours of time you need to hear His voice. When He tells you something, it is very important, but most ignore my voice or just discuss it and go on with what they were doing. You will see many things start to happen shortly and if you do not hear and obey His voice,... it will mean death for some of you....Jesus has only your best interest in mind. Christ knows you heart, and if you are truly His you will hear His voice. He awakes many of you at 3am on the dot, but most will roll over and go back to sleep. There are a few who will get up and pray. Your day is filled with so many things and Jesus is the last thing many of you give your time to. But Christ needs to talk to you,... to fellowship with you and only when you are still and quite (3am) can you hear Him,... the rest of your day is so busy you do not have time for Him,... but you need to make time, for time is short and the Lord has instructions for you.

Revelation 21

The Temple of the New Jerusalem

And I saw no temple therein: for the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb are the temple of it. Rev. 21:22

I saw no... Several passages affirm that there is a temple in heaven (3:12; 7:15; 11:19; 15:5). Here, it is clear there is none in eternity. How can this be? The temple is not a building; it is the Lord God Himself. (Revelation 7:15), implies this when it says, “He who sits on the throne will spread His tabernacle over them”. (Verse 23), continues the thought of no temple, “except God and the Lamb”. The glory of God which illuminates all heaven defines it as His temple. There is no need for a temple in the eternal state since God Himself will be the temple in which everything exists. The presence of God literally fills the entire new heaven and new earth (compare verse 3). Going to heaven will be entering the limitless presence of the Lord (compare John 14:3; 1 Thess. 4:17).

There will be no need for a temple in heaven to provide a means for a man to fellowship with God. Because of Jesus sacrificial death on the cross, sin will not exist there. God and the Lamb are the temple of the eternal city. This clearly emphasizes the deity of Christ as equal in essence to that of the father.

no temple therein... There will be a literal temple in the New Jerusalem (Rev. 3:12; 7:15; 11:19; 14:15, 14:17; 15:1-8; 16:1, 16:17). The meaning is simply that people will no longer go to some building as the only place to meet with God, as in the earthly temple at Jerusalem, for God and the Lamb will be visibly present among human beings to meet with them in all places (Rev. 21:3-7, 21:22; 22:3-5). There will be no need for anyone to go anywhere to worship God. Believers will constantly be in His presence. There will never be a minute when they are not in perfect, Holy Communion with the Lord God the Almighty and the Lamb. Therefore, there will be no need for a temple, cathedral, church, chapel or any other house of worship. Believers will be the true worshipers God has always sought.

John declared that he did not see a temple in the city because God the Father and the Lamb (God the Son) are its temple.

See the meaning and usage of the word noas for “temple,” and other words under Rev. 15:5, 8; 16:1. Which show there is a literal temple in the New Jerusalem. The idea here is that God and the Lamb will be the sanctuary for all peoples in the eternal state instead of a sanctuary without the personal presence of God and the Lamb as the objects of worship, as has always been the case with worship on earth. In Rev. 3:12 the promise to the overcomer is that he shall have authority in the temple of God and shall no more go out, thus showing that there may still be a temple in the city when it comes to the earth. See also Rev. 7:15; 11:19; 14:15, 17; 15:5, 8; 16:1, 17, where the same literal temple of the city is seen as an eternal temple.
