John also said our new home will radiate with God’s glory. He used the imagery of a very precious jewel to convey the brilliance of the Lord’s majesty shining from the city. Imagine the sparkling effect of the sun shining full-strength on a large, flawless diamond.
The Bible also says our new home will be 1,500 miles long, 1,500 miles wide, and 1,500 miles high. That’s large enough to accommodate every believer. A high wall will be set on 12 foundations with 12 gates. Scripture compares the building materials to the most precious stones and metals. Our Savior is preparing a place of great beauty just for us (John 14:2-3).
