THE CITY OF GOD NEW JERUSALEM

The apostle John said he saw the "souls", and soul is defined in the Greek language as psyche or the spirit-intellects of the righteous saints in theophanies,who were murdered for their testimony of Jesus Christ. They had not worshipped the "Lamb-beast or the dragon-beast".

The body of this beast in the first phase revelation is the religio-political system formed under the leadership of Cush and Nimrod in the days of antiquity. And the first of its seven heads was Egypt. And of course Ecclesiastical Rome was the seventh head that emerged out of the "European Sea" of nations to become the seventh dominating power of the earth. In the second phase revelation the seventh head evolves into the body of the beast altogether, and the seven heads denote the seven revivals of the so-called Holy Roman Empire.

The other beast is the Religious Right Wing Conservative Movement that emerged out of the people of America and evolved into a national power to capture the government by deception at the ballot box. Once in power, these religionist will create an "image" to the first beast called the European Community lead by Popery. (the restored Holy Roman Empire) The European Community consists of five kings in the east and five kings in the west of Europe and they will come together in a quasi-unity, and eventually give their economic and militery power to the antichrist to complete their national destinies.

The "image of the beast" is a super ecclesiastical Committee made up of religious leaders from all the major religions of the world, and chaired by the antichrist Pope with absolute authority and power. This means thousands of the saints will be murdered by the these religious antichrists in America and the world. (Rev.13:11-18)

Now he is referring to the spirit-intellects of the unsaved, who are alive (not with immortality) because they exist as prisoners in tartaros hell, and they live not again as human beings in this natural world" until the Kingdom age is completed.

In other words, John says these events consummate the first resurrection of the righteous from Paradise, and the saints who are alive and remain performing the will of Christ. (1-Thess.4;13-18. 1-Cor.15:51-58)

This statement confirms two succinct realities. The first is the realization there is only one event in the general resurrection of life. All the saints have a part in the "one resurrection." The second is revealed by John in using the word "lived" to referr to saints who lived again as human beings in the natural world in glorified bodies, and in doing so, they by-passed through Christ, the second death. The second death entails the resurrection of the natural corporeal bodies of the unsaved to be enjoined with their spirit-intellets for the judgment, punishment, and their annihilation in Gehenna hell, the lake of fire.(Rev.20:11-15)

All the glorified people of God shall be special priests of God for the natural people who will repopulate the nations of the planet, and be ruled and rehabilitated by the law of God. The dynamic power of the Spirit of Christ intrinsic in the lives of the glorified saints will be expressed in his attributional mode of priests and kings for a thousand years.

This knowledge reveals the first resurrection, and the last battle before the Kingdom age with the armies of the antichrist, who by way, gathered at Armageddon to attack Jerusalem from the north and south of the Valley of Jehoshaphat between Jerusalem and the Mount of Olives; and their inevitable defeat. Also, the incarceration of the Devil in the "bottomless pit" for a thousand years will usher in the utopia of God upon planet earth.

Today, because "that which is perfect has come", each individual person in the glorious church of Jesus Christ is enjoying their personal utopia of God, because the dynamic presence of Jesus Christ is reigning supreme in our minds and lives in truth. The measure of Christ's faith is being maximized, as each offspring of God lives the sinless victorious Christ-life every day, and in every way to the glory of his Holy Being and name. The moment the Kingdom age begins, the Kingdom of God formed in the spirit-intellects of his people will be expressed and articulated in authority and power, as we reign and rule a thousand years. The theocratic government of God will be established in natural Jerusalem after the judgment seat of Christ for rewards. Stay tuned, because more of "that which is perfect has come."

In the chronicles of history we read about the grand structures erected by the renown of the world. The Tower of Babel, the Titanic, Heritage Village, and of course the First Hubble Space Telescope. The par excellence of their technique has given their posterity the mastery of nature. This is the stuff that dreams are made of.
