ETERNITY is Forever...
ETERNITY -- After our final breath
or
when we are caught up with Him.
We don't know when this will be...
but we continually remain in Christ
... ready at all times to meet Him
upon the exit from this world
to the next
EVERY ThisDay...
DO YOU KNOW THE KING OF THIS KINGDOM?
IS YOUR NAME WRITTEN IN HIS BOOK OF LIFE?
Eternity refers to the New Jerusalem that is coming
after the Return of Messiah (Christ).
Eternal Life also refers to the access we NOW have,
as GOD's children through Christ,
to all that He has Promised in His Word.
Next the angel showed me the river of the water of life,
sparkling like crystal,
flowing from the throne of GOD and of the Lamb.
Between the main street and the river
was the Tree of Life
producing twelve kinds of fruit, a different kind every month;
and the leaves of the tree were for healing the nations —
no longer will there be any curses.
The throne of GOD and of the Lamb will be in the city,
and His servants will worship Him;
they will see His face,
and His Name will be on their foreheads.
Night will no longer exist,
so they will need neither the light of a lamp nor the light of the sun,
because Adonai, GOD, will shine upon them.
And they will reign as kings forever and ever. Rev 22:1-5 CJB
Eye has not seen,
ear has not heard,
neither has entered the imagination of man...
what GOD has prepared for us! 1Cor 2:9
