Revelation 21:5 - Bible Commentary

Revelation 21:5

“Look, I am making everything new!”

Commentary

God is the Maker. The Good book starts with the superb story of His formation of the universe, and it finishes up with His production of another paradise and another earth. This is a colossal expectation and consolation for the devotee. At the point when we are with God, with our transgressions excused and our future secure, we will be like Christ. We will be made wonderful like Him.

Revelation 21:5 is a powerful verse where God declares, "Behold, I make all things new." This verse is found in the last book of the Bible, Revelation, and it offers a glimpse into the future, describing a new heaven and a new earth.

The context of this verse is important. In the preceding verses, John, the author of Revelation, describes the vision of a holy city, the New Jerusalem, coming down from heaven. This city represents the dwelling place of God among His people. In Revelation 21:5, God Himself speaks, emphasizing His authority over creation.

The phrase "I make all things new" signifies a divine renewal and transformation. It echoes themes found throughout the Bible, emphasizing God's ability to bring about redemption and restoration. It draws on Old Testament prophecies that speak of a future restoration, like Isaiah 65:17, where God promises to create a new heaven and a new earth.

Biblical stories such as Noah's ark and the flood provide examples of God renewing the world after judgment. In the New Testament, the resurrection of Jesus Christ serves as the ultimate act of renewal, offering new life to all believers.

In summary, Revelation 21:5 is a proclamation of God's power to bring about a new and redeemed creation. It ties together biblical themes of renewal, restoration, and the ultimate victory of God over sin and death.

Gossip - How bad thing it is..

In Ancient Greece, Socrates had a great reputation for wisdom. One day, someone came to find the great philosopher and said to him: "Do you know what I just heard about your friend?" "A moment," replied Socrates. "Before you tell me, I would like to test it with the three sieves." "The three sieves?" "Yes," continued Socrates. "Before you speak about others, it's important to take the time to filter what you mean. I call it the test of the three sieves. The first sieve is TRUTH. Have you checked if what you're going to tell me is true?" "No, I just heard it." "Very well! So, you don't know if it's true. Let's move on to the second sieve, that of KINDNESS. Is what you want to tell me about my friend something good?" "Oh, no! On the contrary." "So," questioned Socrates, "you want to tell me something negative about him, and you're not even sure it...

నీ స్వబుద్ధిని ఆధారము చేసికొనక నీ పూర్ణహృదయముతో యెహోవాయందు నమ్మక ముంచుము

“నీ స్వబుద్ధిని ఆధారము చేసికొనక నీ పూర్ణహృదయముతో యెహోవాయందు నమ్మక ముంచుము నీ ప్రవర్తన అంతటియందు ఆయన అధికారమునకు ఒప్పుకొనుము అప్పుడు ఆయన నీ త్రోవలను సరాళము చేయును. నీ రాబడి అంతటిలో ప్రథమఫలమును నీ ఆస్తిలో భాగమును ఇచ్చి యెహోవాను ఘనపరచుము. వెండి సంపాదించుటకంటె జ్ఞానము సంపాదించుట మేలు అపరంజి సంపాదించుటకంటె జ్ఞానలాభము నొందుట మేలు. అప్పుడు నీ మార్గమున నీవు సురక్షితముగా నడిచెదవు నీ పాదము ఎప్పుడును తొట్రిల్లదు.” ‭‭సామెతలు‬ ‭3‬:‭5‬-‭6‬, ‭9‬, ‭14‬, ‭23

WHAT HAPPENED TO THE ARK OF THE COVENANT? Where it is currently?

The Ark of the Covenant was a chest described in the Bible as containing the stone tablets of the Ten Commandments. According to the Bible, the Ark had immense significance to the Israelites. However, its whereabouts and fate have been lost to history. There are a few theories about what happened to it: It was destroyed when the Babylonians sacked Jerusalem in 587 BCE. Some believe the Ark was taken from the Temple during this attack and destroyed or melted down. It is hidden somewhere in an underground chamber beneath where the Temple stood. When the Babylonians attacked, some believe the Ark was hidden away in a secret cave or tunnel, the location of which has been lost. Numerous excavations near Temple Mount have searched but not found proof of this theory. It's in Ethiopia. The Ethiopian Orthodox church claims the Ark was moved to Ethiopia in the 10th century BCE for safekeeping, first to the island of Tana Kirkos on Lake Tana, then eventually to the St. Mary of Zio...
