All Things Made New

Send us your questions and reflections!Conclude the entire Untangle series with this hope-filled finale about God's promise to make all things new. Based on Revelation 21:1-5, we learn that ultimately, resurrection—both Christ's and ours—means that we will dwell with God forever, and this is amazing. After seven weeks of untangling from control, expectations, comparison, enmity, self-preservation, approval, and death, today we discover the ultimate hope that makes freedom from all these tangles possible.A New Heaven and a New Earth: John sees "a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away." This isn't heaven as we typically think of it—a spiritual place where disembodied souls float around. This is a new creation—physical, real, tangible. The Holy City Coming Down: John sees "the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband." Heaven comes to earth. Not us going up to heaven—heaven coming down. God's dwelling place and our dwelling place merge.The Dwelling Place of God Is With Man: The declaration: "Behold, the dwelling place of God is with man. He will dwell with them, and they will be his people, and God himself will be with them as their God." This is the culmination of the entire biblical story. Death Shall Be No More: The promise: "Death shall be no more, neither shall there be mourning, nor crying, nor pain anymore, for the former things have passed away." Why This Matters Now: When you know where you're headed, you can endure the journey. When you know the end of the story, you can handle the hard chapters. Perfect for anyone discouraged by brokenness, hopeless about the future, or needing to be reminded that God is making all things new and we will dwell with Him forever.Scripture Focus: Revelation 21:1-5 Series: Untangle Week Theme: Untangle from the Power of DeathDiscover the ultimate hope: God is making all things new, and you will dwell with Him forever in a world where death, pain, and tears are no more.
