The Kingdom of Heaven in Eternity.

This is the rule of (God in) heaven through the New Jerusalem. This was promised to the Old Testament saints – a heavenly city.

`These all died in faith, not having received the promises, but having seen them afar off were assured of them, embraced them and confessed that they were strangers and pilgrims on the earth….

But now they desire a better, that is a heavenly country. Therefore God is not ashamed to be called their God, for He has prepared a city for them.` (Heb. 11: 13 – 16)

Then when God makes the New Heavens and New Earth, the New Jerusalem will come down out of the third heaven to the Universal realm.

`Now I saw a new Heaven and a New Earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away. Also, there was no more sea. Then I, John, saw the holy city, New Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven, (third heaven)…` (Rev. 21: 1 & 2)

The glory of God shines forth from the city over the earth. As the earth revolves the celestial city shines over each part.

`And the nations of those who are saved shall walk in its light…` (Rev. 21: 24)

The kings of the earth go up into the city giving praise and worship to God, receiving God`s righteous guidance.

`And the kings of the earth bring their glory and honor into it. (Rev. 21: 24)

The twelve Apostles of the Lamb will rule from the city.

`So Jesus said to them, “Assuredly I say to you, that in the regeneration when the Son of Man sits on the throne of His glory, you who have followed me will also sit on twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.` (Matt. 19: 28)

`Now the wall of the city had twelve foundations, and on them were the names of the twelve apostles of the Lamb.` (Rev. 21: 14)

The Lord Jesus Christ`s throne is there, meaning His authority which is from His seat of power and authority in the third heaven.

`the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in it,…` (Rev. 22: 3)
