THE BODIES OF THE REDEEMED WILL BE IMMORTAL BODIES (WITH FLESH AND BONES) THAT WILL NOT ONLY NEVER DIE, NEVER GET SICK, NEVER BECOME TIRED, NEVER FAIL NOR AGE BUT WILL ENJOY ASTRONOMICAL FEATS OF MOVEMENT, VISIBILITY AND INVISIBILITY, AS WELL AS CONSUME FOOD AND DRINK, BEING TOUCHED AND ABLE TO TOUCH OTHERS, AND ENJOY ENERGETIC SEX AND BIRTH THRIVING BABIES.* MOST IMPORTANT OF ALL, OUR IMMORTAL BODIES WILL ENABLE US TO ENTER INTO THE PRESENCE OF ALMIGHTY GOD AND HAVE EXHILARATING COMMUNION WITH OUR LOVING FATHER AND HIS LOVING SON, OUR SAVIOUR AND BIG BROTHER, JESUS CHRIST.**
“Life After Our Redemption” is the first of a seven book series (FREELY AVAILABLE ONLINE) which captures the revelations and inspirations given to the Author by God that were posted online in subject groupings / collections. These posts were not planned or pre-organized but produced on the same morning that prayer and communion with God was made before the actual postings. Indeed, many of the posts especially blessed the Author himself who had not previously encountered what many of the Posts communicated. [Most of the content used in the “One God One Lord” and “God Is A Generous Giver & Just Rewarder” Collections are derived from Mark’s first book, "Whose Will Be Done?" (also freely available online).] Often, the Holy Spirit would guide the Author to the verse used in the Post by placing one or several words into his mind which were then searched in the "King James Bible" (KJV). The Spirit would then highlight the words He wanted Mark to embolden which assisted in the emphasis to be made in the Posting through capitalizations, fonts and colours. The postings for each day were thematic and, when placed end-to-end in time sequence, formed themes and eventual “Collections” which the Author has grouped and laid out in each book of this Series. The seven books (“Collections”) in this Series are based upon their respective subject groupings and each are entitled as follows:
(1) “Life After Our Redemption”;
(2) “God Is A Generous Giver & Just Rewarder”;
(3) “The Earth – Magnificent, Dynamic & Created By God”;
(4) “God Versus The Religious Mind”;
(5) “Death After Life – A Grave Issue”;
(6) “One God One Lord”; and
(7) “Worship God In Spirit & In Truth”.
From the need for a person to receive the Holy Spirit to the worship of The One God by Jesus Christ, from the comfort that our loved ones will one day be raised to life to the need to test the spirits and traditions of men with the Word of God and Spiritual Discernment, as well as the acknowledgement that we truly are on a wonderful and unique Earth and that God will spoil all those who are faithful to His Calling through Jesus Christ with Crowns, power, authority, unions, babies and fulfillment during Christ’s 1,000 Year Reign and beyond, the Posts in this Series will greatly bless and encourage all readers as they check each verse stated and marvel at the riches God has placed before us all.
[9] But as it is written, Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God has prepared for them that love Him. [10] But God has revealed them unto us by His Spirit: for the Spirit searches all things, yes, the deep things of God. (1 Corinthians 2: 9-10 KJV)

It was “the joy that was set before” Jesus Christ by God that Christ endured the suffering and death of The Cross. Christ’s joy included: pleasing His Father (Almighty God); being glorified at The Right Hand of God; being crowned the King of Kings and Lord of Lords; rescuing the lives of His Brethren; receiving countless crowns; and (very soon) ruling this Earth for 1,000 years [see other postings in this Collection].
[1] Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, LET US LAY ASIDE EVERY WEIGHT, AND THE SIN WHICH DOES SO EASILY BESET US, AND LET US RUN WITH PATIENCE THE RACE THAT IS SET BEFORE US, [2] Looking unto Jesus The Author and Finisher of Our Faith; who FOR THE JOY THAT WAS SET BEFORE HIM ENDURED THE CROSS, DESPISING THE SHAME, AND IS SET DOWN AT THE RIGHT HAND OF THE THRONE OF GOD. [3] For consider Him that endured such contradiction of sinners against Himself, lest you be wearied and faint in your minds. (Hebrews 12: 1-3 KJV)

For many years people have imagined that believers in The Lord Jesus Christ would simply be floating around in heaven playing harps and singing glory to God for eternity. While there are angels that are created to perform this glorious service to Our God, Scripture paints a different future for those mortal humans who are changed from corruptible to incorruptible, from mortal to immortal bodies in a twinkle of an eye by Jesus Christ at His Appearing in the clouds (1 Corinthians 15 and 1 Thessalonians 4-5 KJV). Where Jesus Christ will be is where you and I will be in our new bodies with all power, glory and majesty bestowed upon us from Our Lord. Not only will we have the same body as Jesus Christ (who could change His appearance, walk through walls, ascend into heaven, descend into the world below, walk on water, and eat and drink like He did before he was crucified) but we are also told that the faithful in Christ will be given authority, responsibilities and the ability to govern on the Earth during His 1,000 year reign. Many other blessings will also be given to His Brethren including relationships that will pale those relationships we have had upon the Earth prior to our redemption from this fallen world. While the image of an angel is used as the background of this posting series (“Life After Our Redemption”), Scripture clearly shows that we will be recognizable to each other and be able to touch and be touched; Jesus Christ looked like a “gardener” on the morning of His Resurrection and appeared in, and disappeared from, locked rooms and did many other things in His resurrected body which body believers will also have by God’s love and grace. Believers in Christ truly have an exciting glorious future of love and service ahead of them and it behooves each one of us to know more about His love and calling and to share these truths with the lost while they still have time.
[42] So also is the resurrection of the dead. It is sown in corruption; it is raised in incorruption: [43] It is sown in dishonour; it is raised in glory: it is sown in weakness; it is raised in power: [44] It is sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual body. There is a natural body, and there is a spiritual body. [45] And so it is written, The first man Adam was made a living soul; THE LAST ADAM WAS MADE A QUICKENING SPIRIT. [JESUS CHRIST IS CALLED THE LAST ADAM AND WAS MADE A QUICKENING SPIRIT] [46] However that was not first which is spiritual, but that which is natural; and afterward that which is spiritual. [47] The first man is of the earth, earthy; THE SECOND MAN IS THE LORD FROM HEAVEN. [JESUS CHRIST IS THE SECOND MAN WHO IS THE LORD FROM HEAVEN] [48] As is the earthy, such are they also that are earthy: and as is the heavenly, such are they also that are heavenly. [49] And as we have borne the image of the earthy, WE SHALL ALSO BEAR THE IMAGE OF THE HEAVENLY. [BELIEVERS SHALL ALSO BEAR THE IMAGE OF THE HEAVENLY] (1 Corinthians 15: 42-49 KJV)

[1] Behold, what manner of love the Father has bestowed upon us, that we should be called the Sons of God: therefore the world knows us not, because it knew Him not. [2] Beloved, NOW ARE WE THE SONS OF GOD, and it does not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, WHEN HE SHALL APPEAR, WE SHALL BE LIKE HIM; for we shall see Him as he is. (1 John 3: 1-2 KJV)

[20] For our conversation is in heaven; from where also we look for the Saviour, THE LORD JESUS CHRIST: [21] Who SHALL CHANGE OUR VILE BODY, that it may be FASHIONED LIKE UNTO HIS GLORIOUS BODY, ACCORDING TO THE WORKING WHEREBY HE IS ABLE EVEN TO SUBDUE ALL THINGS UNTO HIMSELF. (Philippians 3: 20-21 KJV)

Jesus Christ went through the heavens in His Resurrected Body being made a “quickening spirit” by God. We, too, will be made quickening spirits and also be able to travel vast distances throughout God’s Creation in our new bodies.
[31] But they that wait upon THE LORD SHALL RENEW THEIR STRENGTH; THEY SHALL MOUNT UP WITH WINGS AS EAGLES; THEY SHALL RUN, AND NOT BE WEARY; and THEY SHALL WALK, AND NOT FAINT. (Isaiah 40: 31 KJV)

In her distress, Mary initially presumed that Jesus Christ in His new resurrected (“quickening spirit”) body was the gardener and a male by calling Him: “Sir” (and was told not to “touch” Christ at this moment of time; His “quickening spirit” body was able to be touched which is why Mary was told not to touch Him. You, I and other redeemed people in the (very near) future will also be able to be touched and to touch others with our “quickening spirit” bodies).
[14] And when she had thus said, she turned herself back, and saw Jesus standing, and knew not that it was Jesus. [15] Jesus said unto her, Woman, why weep you? Whom seek you? She, SUPPOSING HIM TO BE THE GARDENER, SAID UNTO HIM, SIR, if you have borne him hence, tell me where you have laid Him, and I will take Him away. [16] Jesus said unto her, Mary. She turned herself, and said unto Him, Rabboni; which is to say, Master. [17] Jesus said unto her, TOUCH ME NOT; for I am not yet ascended to My Father: but go to my brethren, and say unto them, I ASCEND UNTO MY FATHER, AND YOUR FATHER; and TO MY GOD, AND YOUR GOD. (John 20: 14-17 KJV)

The Scripture declares that Christ was made a “quickening spirit” and that believers will also be made quickening spirits (1 Corinthians 15: 42ff KJV). Our bodies will have flesh and bones, be able to appear and disappear, eat food and drink the fruit of the vine (Christ said He would drink the fruit of the vine with His followers in the future).
[37] But they were terrified and afraid, and supposed that they had seen a spirit. [38] And He said unto them, Why are you troubled? And why do thoughts arise in your hearts? [39] BEHOLD MY HANDS AND MY FEET, that it is I myself: HANDLE ME, and see; for A SPIRIT HAS NOT FLESH AND BONES, AS YOU SEE ME HAVE. [40] And when He had thus spoken, He showed them His hands and His feet. [41] And while they yet believed not for joy, and wondered, He said unto them, Have you here any meat? [42] And they gave Him a piece of a broiled fish, and of an honeycomb. [43] And HE took it, and DID EAT BEFORE THEM. (Luke 24: 37-43 KJV)

At the moment we accept Christ into our lives we are seated with Christ in the heavens - even when we are physically living on this Earth! Likewise, when we are ushered into His presence in the clouds at The Rapture / Harpazo (and our bodies changed to immortality [mortality will be dissolved]) we will still be seated with Him in the heavenlies but physically present with Him in the clouds. Where is Jesus Christ when He is in the clouds during The Gathering / Rapture / Bema / Pre Second Coming to the Earth? Positionally seated in the heavenlies next to God and physically present in the clouds with the Redeemed (at the right hand of God and in the clouds at the same time). We and Jesus Christ will be together [see previous postings] physically in the clouds and later with each other (physically) upon the Earth; spiritually and legally Christ will always be seated with God and we will be seated next to Christ (spiritually and legally) – forever. Our appointment, our authority, comes from God’s Throne above and is a heavenly power, blessing, Appointment and Calling. Hence, while we are with Christ on Earth during His 1,000 Year Reign (and beyond) our position before The Throne of God above the firmament is a seat next to Jesus Christ (Who is also known as The Lamb of God) [see end Book of Revelation and previous posts].
EVEN WHILE WE ARE PHYSICALLY ON THIS EARTH WE ARE ALSO SEATED IN THE HEAVENLIES – AT THE SAME TIME!
[4] But God, Who is rich in mercy, for His great love where with He loved us, [5] Even when we were dead in sins, has quickened us together with Christ, (by grace you are saved) [6] And HAS RAISED US UP TOGETHER, and MADE US SIT TOGETHER IN HEAVENLY PLACES IN CHRIST JESUS: [7] That in the ages to come He might show the exceeding riches of His Grace in His Kindness toward us through Christ Jesus. (Ephesians 2: 4-7 KJV)

Anyone guess what vintage will be the first “fruit of the vine” we will drink with our lord??
[28] For this is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many for the remission of sins. [29] But I say unto you, I WILL NOT DRINK HENCEFORTH OF THIS FRUIT OF THE VINE, UNTIL THAT DAY WHEN I DRINK IT NEW WITH YOU IN MY FATHER’S KINGDOM. (Matthew 26: 28-29 KJV)

I wonder if we will prefer the flavours and tastes of what we are used to eating in our mortals bodies ...? It sure is going to be fun learning, experiencing and eating all the new things we will encounter after the day of our redemption. (Hey, I wonder if “angel cake” will be served at Christ’s Welcome Home Banquet?!) (:

When we are taken up into the clouds to be with Christ we will be in heaven. This is where Christ will reward the faithful, change our mortal bodies into immortal bodies and commune with us before we are all sent back to the Earth to establish Christ’s 1,000 Year Reign upon Earth alongside mortal man (who survived the Wrath Period and multiply again on the Earth). Anywhere above the Earth is heaven in Scripture; we are not told that we will ascend to stay where God’s Throne is above the Firmament – we are told we will be where Christ is and we will be with Him in the clouds (heaven) and then return to Earth when God tells Him to descend (with us and His Angels). So when you see references to us being in heaven with Christ look at where He is – in the clouds above the Earth after God sends Him there (from being next to God’s Throne where He has been mediating before God and preparing the New Jerusalem (city) above the Firmament) [see new heavens and New Earth in Collection: “Life After Our Redemption” re God and The Lamb’s Thrones living among redeemed man]). So when we are taken up into the clouds to be with Christ, we, too, will be in heaven / clouds until we are sent back to Earth when Christ returns as King of Kings and Lord of Lords. It is in heaven / the clouds that our bodies will be changed into a glorious immortal body and it is in heaven / the clouds (Christ’s “Bema Seat”) that The Lord will reward those faithful to His Calling with crowns and other blessings. (See other Postings in my Collections.)
[34] For you had compassion of me in my bonds, and took joyfully the spoiling of your goods, knowing in yourselves that YOU HAVE IN HEAVEN A BETTER AND AN ENDURING SUBSTANCE. (Hebrews 10: 34 KJV)

Once believers are caught up into the clouds above the earth to join Jesus Christ we will forever be with The Lord Jesus Christ. After a time of rewards, rest and celebration in the clouds with Christ, his angels and fellow believers, we will return to the Earth in our new immortal and incorruptible bodies to live and work with Jesus Christ in the administration of His Government around the whole Earth for 1,000 years. Many believers who have been faithful will be made kings and priests to rule growing populations of mortal humans and their respective governments. These mortal populations and governments will be required to worship and pay homage to God and Jesus Christ with Christ’s Headquarters located in Jerusalem. The world is going to be very interesting with mortals and powerful immortals living in the same world and this period of time will, again, demonstrate that (unredeemed) mankind will always sin – even with Jesus Christ seen by all and ruling upon Earth (yes, there will be a revolt by mortal mankind against Christ at the end of His 1,000 Year Reign)! (Scriptures for these statements will be framed in upcoming postings.)
[16] For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: [17] Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and SO SHALL WE EVER BE WITH THE LORD. (1 Thessalonians 4: 16-17 KJV)

Scripture declares that God does not live in tents or buildings but The Bible states that God sits on a throne in heaven and that God will dwell with redeemed man in the New Jerusalem when it is placed upon the New Earth. As with the creation of this world, Jesus Christ is integral to the making of the New Jerusalem that will later be moved from heaven to the New Earth; it is this “House of God” with many mansions that Jesus Christ referred to when He told His Followers that He will go and “prepare a place for you” – believers will not be going to live in mansions in the heavens but dwell gloriously with God and Jesus Christ on the ground of the new heaven and New Earth in the New Jerusalem. This holy city will not be made by the hands of men and will be finished in heaven before it descends to the New Earth. Jesus Christ is currently in heaven with God mediating and working on preparing New Jerusalem for its wonderful future inhabitants but, at God’s command, He will return to gather His Saints and begin His 1,000 Year Rule on Earth shortly afterwards. (See other posts in this series with corroborating verses on this very interesting subject.) Note before: like His Father, Jesus Christ loves to create and build - notice that His occupation upon Earth was being a carpenter. He surely is enjoying the work on the New Jerusalem, as well as the shaping of lives within His People!
[1] Let not your heart be troubled: you believe in God, believe also in Me. [2] IN MY FATHER’S HOUSE ARE MANY MANSIONS: if it were not so, I would have told you. I GO TO PREPARE A PLACE FOR YOU. [3] And if I go and prepare a place for you, I WILL COME AGAIN, AND RECEIVE YOU UNTO MYSELF; that WHERE I AM, THERE YOU MAY BE ALSO. (John 14: 1-3 KJV)

Christ is coming back to rapture us into the clouds - not to call the New Jerusalem into the sky (the Bride of Christ is the New Jerusalem - not The Church - which comes down from God to the Earth at the end of Christ’s 1,000 Year Reign).
The Bride (Holy Jerusalem from above)
The Bride = Lamb’s Wife = Holy Jerusalem descended out of heaven from God

[9] And there came unto me one of the seven angels which had the seven vials full of the seven last plagues, and talked with me, saying, Come hither, I WILL SHOW YOU THE BRIDE, THE LAMB’S WIFE.

There will be “powers” in the world to come that Believers can “taste” in this world once they have received the Holy Spirit (see “Worship God In Spirit And In Truth” Collection regarding baptism of the Holy Spirit and its operations / gifts / manifestations).

“Sex” is not a dirty word; it is an absolute blessing from God of which the redeemed of God in Christ will enjoy as part of their rewards.
Marriages, such as those addressed by Christ when he was questioned about the woman who had been married to many husbands, and the legal “marriage” entered into by public acclamation / recognition and government registration, will not be part of the new heavens and the New Earth. [Note before: because this Website is accessible to young people (who may be legally prohibited from further discussion on the subject of sexual relations and reproduction among the redeemed of Christ in eternity) I will only make brief comments]. God created sexual organs for male and female bodies and it is highly enjoyable to the healthy mind and body. Take note that Scripture states that Jesus Christ was recognized as a male in his resurrected body (Mary thought Christ was a gardener and addressed him as, “Sir”, before she realized it was Jesus Christ).
Yes, God has revealed to me certain details about the glory He will bestow upon me which includes aspects of my life as a male in His Kingdom and He has also shown me particular verses on this subject that I had not realized were in The Scripture. Excitingly, these personal revelations have also been expressly confirmed to me by others to whom I had not previously disclosed. Fantastic relationships and unions among the redeemed of The Lord is an awesome reward and great impetus for me to push forward towards “the finish line” where my Lord Jesus Christ will greet me (and prayerfully, you, too!!). We truly are a spoiled people and God is fully aware of all our (human / male / female) desires, needs, concerns and interests in where we will spend eternity and what we will be doing – including sexual and reproductive unions we have never had (or imagined) before the day of redemption. Come, Lord Jesus, Come! (:
The bodies of the Redeemed will be immortal bodies (with flesh and bones) that will not only never die, never get sick, never become tired, never fail nor age but will enjoy astronomical feats of movement, visibility and invisibility, as well as consume food and drink, being touched and able to touch others, and enjoy energetic sex and birth thriving babies. Most important of all, our immortal bodies will enable us to enter into the presence of Almighty God and have exhilarating communion with our Loving Father and His Loving Son, Our Saviour and Big Brother, Jesus Christ.

Children will be born to immortal “quickening spirit” believers after Redemption (note reference “in all My Holy Mountain” where only God’s Children will reside – not the mortals who will only visit Jerusalem to pay homage to Christ during annual pilgrimages). And looks like babies will be breastfed (“sucking”, “weaned”) which will be another great blessing for the union!
[4] But with righteousness shall he judge the poor, and reprove with equity for the meek of the earth: and he shall smite the earth: with the rod of his mouth, and with the breath of his lips shall he slay the wicked.

[8] And THE SUCKING CHILD SHALL PLAY on the hole of the asp, and THE WEANED CHILD SHALL PUT HIS HAND on the cockatrice’ den. [9] They shall not hurt nor destroy IN ALL MY HOLY MOUNTAIN: for the Earth shall be full of the knowledge of the Lord, as the waters cover the sea. (Isaiah 11: 4-9 KJV)

Babies will be born to faithful believers in God’s plan to repopulate this world (The Regeneration spoken about by Jesus Christ) during Christ’s 1,000 year reign and to populate the new heavens and the New Earth. For women to give birth they will have sexual relations which is good and wonderful in Our Creator’s sight.
[28] And Jesus said unto them, Verily I say unto you, That you which have followed me, IN THE REGENERATION WHEN THE SON OF MAN SHALL SIT IN THE THRONE OF HIS GLORY, you also shall sit upon twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel. [29] And EVERY ONE THAT HATH FORSAKEN HOUSES, OR BRETHREN, OR SISTERS, OR FATHER, OR MOTHER, OR WIFE, OR CHILDREN, OR LANDS, FOR MY NAME’S SAKE, SHALL RECEIVE AN HUNDREDFOLD, and shall inherit everlasting life.

During the Wrath / Tribulation Period prophesied in the Book of Revelation, many many many people are going to die from all the plagues, wars, poisoning, bites and so forth which will greatly depopulate the Earth. One of the first commandments from God to man was to repopulate the Earth which has always been His Will – flourishing human populations spread throughout the Earth who will love, adore and worship God in spirit and in truth in this age and the one to come.

[27] So God created man in His Own Image, in The Image of God created he him; male and female created He them. [28] And God blessed them, and God said unto them, BE FRUITFUL, and MULTIPLY, and REPLENISH THE EARTH, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moves upon the earth. (Genesis 1: 27-28 KJV)
Regarding: [50] Now this I say, brethren, that FLESH AND BLOOD cannot inherit the kingdom of God; neither does corruption inherit incorruption. (1 Corinthians 15: 50 KJV Emphasis mine)
DOES THIS VERSE SAY "FLESH AND BONE" CANNOT INHERIT THE KINGDOM OF GOD? IT DOES NOT. Jesus Christ has ("QUICKENED SPIRIT") flesh and bone - NOT FLESH AND BLOOD; We will also have bodies of ("QUICKENED SPIRIT") flesh and bone (WITHOUT BLOOD). [WE WILL NOT HAVE BLOOD - UNLIKE OUR CURRENT BODIES WHICH NEED BLOOD FOR LIFE (LEVITICUS 17: 11 KJV) our immortal bodies will be MADE ALIVE WITH SPIRIT FROM GOD (IT WILL BE A "QUICKENED SPIRIT" BODY). What do you think will "DISSOLVE" when "MORTALITY IS DISSOLVED" on The Day of Our Redemption? Blood will be REPLACED with SPIRIT.]
* Jesus Christ said that spirits do not have flesh and bones (our bodies will not be changed into spirit bodies but are changed into the same (resurrected) body Christ was given by God - which is the "Quickened Spirit Body"): [39] Behold my hands and my feet, that it is I myself: handle me, and see; for A SPIRIT HAS NOT FLESH AND BONES, AS YOU SEE ME HAVE (Luke 24: 39 KJV EMPHASIS MINE). Also see Posting #11/70 in the "Life After Our Redemption" book and Website.
Regarding the Vision of the Statue and Future Earth shown to King Nebuchadnezzar and Daniel: [1] And in the second year of the reign of Nebuchadnezzar Nebuchadnezzar dreamed dreams, wherewith his spirit was troubled, and his sleep brake from him ... [3] And the king said unto them, I have dreamed a dream, and my spirit was troubled to know the dream ... [19] Then was the secret revealed unto Daniel in a night vision. Then Daniel blessed the God of heaven ... [27] Daniel answered in the presence of the king, and said, The secret which the king has demanded cannot the wise men, the astrologers, the magicians, the soothsayers, show unto the king; [28] But there is a God in heaven that reveals secrets, and makes known to the king Nebuchadnezzar what shall be in the latter days. Your dream, and the visions of your head upon your bed, are these; ... [31] You, O king, saw, and beheld a great image. This great image, whose brightness was excellent, stood before you; and the form thereof was terrible. [32] This image's head was of fine gold, his breast and his arms of silver, his belly and his thighs of brass, [33] His legs of iron, his feet part of iron and part of clay. [34] You saw till that a stone was cut out without hands, which smote the image upon his feet that were of iron and clay, and brake them to pieces. [35] Then was the iron, the clay, the brass, the silver, and the gold, broken to pieces together, and became like the chaff of the summer threshing floors; and the wind carried them away, that no place was found for them: and the stone that smote the image became A GREAT MOUNTAIN, AND FILLED THE WHOLE EARTH. [36] This is the dream; and we will tell the interpretation thereof before the king. [37] You, O king, are a king of kings: for the God of heaven has given you a kingdom, power, and strength, and glory. [38] And wheresoever the children of men dwell, the beasts of the field and the fowls of the heaven has he given into your hand, and has made you ruler over them all. You are this head of gold. [39] And after you shall arise another kingdom inferior to you, and another third kingdom of brass, which shall bear rule over all the earth ... [44] And in the days of these kings shall the God of heaven set up a kingdom, which shall never be destroyed: and the kingdom shall not be left to other people, but it shall break in pieces and consume all these kingdoms, and it shall stand for ever. [45] Forasmuch as you saw that the stone was cut out of the mountain without hands, and that it broke in pieces the iron, the brass, the clay, the silver, and the gold; the great God has made known to the king what shall come to pass hereafter: and the dream is certain, and the interpretation thereof sure. (Daniel 2: 1, 3, 19, 27-28, 31-39, 44-45 KJV Emphasis mine)
DOES THIS VERSE SAY THAT THE "GREAT MOUNTAIN" WILL FILL THE WHOLE EARTH? IT DOES. With what will the whole Earth be filled? The Kingdom of God and Jesus Christ (MADE UP OF PEOPLE) will FILL THE WHOLE EARTH. [Read this Scripture section which states Kingdom etc and note this future Kingdom of God is not described as "over all the Earth" as the kingdoms of men are described but over "the WHOLE Earth".] Are there enough people to fill the whole Earth today? No (and definitely not after the coming "Wrath Period"). Does the picture of the FUTURE EARTH under Christ's Reign include CHILDREN? IT DOES (see following pages). The future Kingdom of God and Christ will FILL THE WHOLE EARTH AND (NEW) PEOPLE (BABIES) will be needed to expand His Kingdom THROUGHOUT THE WHOLE EARTH. Stop with the denial of the need to procreate after we have left this Age and think through what God has planned for the (VERY) near future - FLOURISHING POPULATION GROWTH TO FILL THE WHOLE EARTH. This global population will include mortal and immortal children with specific mention of (immortal) children (living) on the Mountain of God where mortals will not live (see following pages).

The Immortals in Christ will not only produce MANY CHILDREN they will also have unlimited energy and no longer need sleep or rest because of the "Quickened Spirit" in all their flesh and bones (see other sections in this Website regarding limitless energy). Jesus Christ took naps and slept from time-to-time before His Resurrection but THERE IS NOT ONE VERSE WHERE CHRIST IN HIS RESURRECTED BODY TOOK A NAP OR WENT TO SLEEP - LIKEWISE, OUR NEW BODIES (BEING CHANGED TO "AS HE IS") WILL NOT NEED REST OR SLEEP!
Mortals today use beds to rest, sleep and make love but those who will be changed from being Mortal to Immortal on The Day of Redemption by Jesus Christ will no longer need sleep or rest but will make lots of love and produce MANY babies according to God's blessings and rich reward (see sections "Life After Our Redemption" re Children being a rich reward and faithful Believers being rewarded with MANY babies). Notice how the Saints in Psalm 149 will not only have beds during Christ's Reign on Earth but will sing aloud to God on beds because of all the wondrous glory and intense love we will all enjoy from Him and with each other - males and females with beautiful babies - LOTS OF THEM!!
[1] Praise you the Lord. Sing unto the Lord a new song, and His praise in the congregation of saints. [2] Let Israel rejoice in him that made him: let the children of Zion be joyful in their King. [3] Let them praise His name in the dance: let them sing praises unto Him with the timbrel and harp. [4] For the Lord takes pleasure in His people: He will beautify the meek with salvation. [5] LET THE SAINTS BE JOYFUL IN GLORY: LET THEM SING ALOUD UPON THEIR BEDS. [6] Let the high praises of God be in their mouth (Psalm 149: 1-6a KJV EMPHASIS MINE).

[11] You will show me THE PATH OF LIFE: in Your presence is fulness of joy; at Your right hand there are PLEASURES FOREVERMORE (Psalm 16: 11 KJV EMPHASIS MINE). Does "the Path of Life" include having sex and birthing children? IT DOES. Is sex one of many pleasures God has given to human beings in this mortal life and promised to be included in "Eternal Life" for those given immortality? IT IS. The lives God originally intended for His People WILL BE FULFILLED IN ETERNITY with no sickness, no death and no pain in childbirth.* COME, LORD JESUS, COME!
* [4] And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, NEITHER SHALL THERE BE ANY MORE PAIN: for the former things are passed away (Revelation 21: 4 (KJV) EMPHASIS MINE)
(NB For anyone uncomfortable with the mention of "SEX" in "Life After Our Redemption" (and The Scripture) please: (1) Go to the "Postings57to70+AUTHOR" Webpage on the "Life After Our Redemption" Website; and, (2) Read the section under the Heading: "FOR THOSE WHO ARE OFFENDED AT THE MENTION OF "SEX" IN "LIFE AFTER OUR REDEMPTION".)
IT IS NOW TIME TO REVEAL MORE OF WHAT GOD'S SPIRIT SHOWED ME IN 2014 ON THIS SENSITIVE SUBJECT OF SEX AFTER THIS LIFE: All Scripture points to the Love of God & the Life of Jesus Christ including His Reign & Kingdom to come from Genesis 3: 15 to Revelation 22: 21 (KJV). The Book of Solomon is no exception to this Biblical understanding & the verses ultimately detail the relationship between God's King of Kings & Lord of Lords & the women He will love upon this very Earth we dwell upon. His women will be wonderfully blessed & His Children mighty in stature. (REDEEMED) Men & women in the coming Kingdom will not be "married" to each other but will attract each other individually through the glory that God will shine through their (flesh & bone) faces & bodies. Those who have been faithful to The Lord will shine brightly & be very attractive to the opposite sex - the fruit of their loins will be proportionate to those rewards given to them by Jesus Christ. This knowledge I did not know or understand before 2014; since this Revelation was given to me in 2014 through the Holy Spirit, I have marveled at God's Love & Plans for each one of His Children. Sex is a strong motivator in this life for healthy humans & ROMANCE & SEX are going to be a rich reward for those who have been faithful to Christ. ARE YOU READY TO RECEIVE HIS LOVE, HIS LIFE & HIS PURPOSE FOR YOUR LIFE (& BODY) FOR ETERNITY?! [NOW GO & REREAD THE BOOK OF SOLOMON - IT VERY MUCH CONTAINS MANY BLESSINGS CHRIST WILL ENJOY AS WELL AS THE REDEEMED - WITH HIM & WITH EACH OTHER FOR ETERNITY.] COME, LORD JESUS, COME! (POSTED 8 APRIL 2022)
Like we do today, WE WILL ENJOY REUNIONS, PARTIES, CELEBRATIONS AND CEREMONIES but, in the Age to come, the mode of transportation will differ between the Immortals and the Mortals on Earth during Christ's 1,000 Year Rule on Earth - Immortals will not only BE ABLE TO WALK, RUN AND SWIM WITH BOUNDLESS ENERGY (AS WELL AS SAIL AND WALK ON WATER) but we will also be able to FLY INTO THE SKY; Jesus Christ went up into the sky and He will return from the sky in His Resurrected Body (see following pages) and we who are changed into immortals shall also enjoy flight IN OUR NEW GLORIOUS BODIES.

[2] For, behold, the darkness shall cover the earth, and gross darkness the people: but the Lord shall arise upon you, and his glory shall be seen upon you. [3] And the Gentiles shall come to your light, and kings to the brightness of your rising. [4] Lift up your eyes round about, and see: all they gather themselves together, they come to you: YOUR SONS SHALL COME FROM FAR, and your daughters shall be nursed at your side. [5] Then you shall see, and flow together, and your heart shall fear, and be enlarged; because the abundance of the sea shall be converted unto you, the forces of the Gentiles shall come unto you.

(Isaiah 60: 2-11, 13 KJV Emphasis mine)
* DID JESUS CHRIST GO UP INTO HEAVEN TO THE THRONE OF GOD IN HIS NEW RESURRECTED BODY DURING HIS 1ST COMING TO THE EARTH? HE DID. Are there records in The Scripture that state that ANGELS OF GOD COME DOWN FROM HEAVEN TO SERVE PEOPLE ON THE EARTH AND GO UP INTO HEAVEN FROM THE EARTH TO WORSHIP GOD? There are many Bible verses about this travel between Heaven and Earth (also recall "Jacob's Ladder"). THE REDEEMED (changed into Immortals at "The Rapture") WILL ALSO COMMUTE BETWEEN HEAVEN AND EARTH BUT WILL BE "BASED" WHEREVER JESUS CHRIST IS "BASED". Christ is currently with God in Heaven and will be sent from Heaven to Earth at God's Appointed Times to extract His People up into the clouds and then to the Earth to commence His 2nd Coming. Yes, the Book of Revelation (and elsewhere) records The Redeemed being before The Throne of God and being in Heaven but they will be ("based") wherever Christ "DWELLS". [See also "The Camp of The Saints" during Christ's 1,000 Year Reign in Revelation 20: 9 (KJV).] Citizens of Heaven, YES; Royals and Priests on the Earth with Jesus Christ during Christ's Millennial Reign; ALSO YES.
Regarding the description of "THE ALPHA AND THE OMEGA" BODY in: [10] I WAS IN THE SPIRIT on the Lord's day, and heard behind me a great voice, as of a trumpet, [11] Saying, I AM ALPHA AND OMEGA, the first and the last: and, What you see, write in a book, and send it unto the seven churches which are in ... [12] And I turned to see the voice that spoke with me. And being turned, I saw seven golden candlesticks; [13] And in the midst of the seven candlesticks one LIKE THE SON OF MAN, clothed with a garment down to the foot, and girt about the paps with a golden girdle. [14] HIS HEAD AND HIS HAIRS WERE WHITE LIKE WOOL, AS WHITE AS SNOW; AND HIS EYES WERE AS A FLAME OF FIRE; [15] AND HIS FEET LIKE UNTO FINE BRASS, AS IF THEY BURNED IN A FURNACE; AND HIS VOICE AS THE SOUND OF MANY WATERS. [16] And he had IN HIS RIGHT HAND SEVEN STARS: AND OUT OF HIS MOUTH WENT A SHARP TWO EDGED SWORD: AND HIS COUNTENANCE WAS AS THE SUN SHINING in his strength (Revelation 1: 10-16 KJV Emphasis Mine).
DO YOU THINK THAT JESUS CHRIST WILL BE RULING THE EARTH FOR A THOUSAND YEARS WITH A SWORD GOING IN AND OUT OF HIS MOUTH? HOW WILL HE EAT AND DRINK WITH A SHARP TWO-EDGED SWORD MOST LIKELY GETTING IN THE WAY OF THE FISH AND WINE HE WILL CONSUME? IS THERE A VERSE THAT STATES CHRIST HAD A SHARP TWO EDGED SWORD IN HIS MOUTH WHEN HE ATE FISH AND DRANK WATER WITH HIS DISCIPLES IN HIS RESURRECTED BODY BEFORE HE ASCENDED UP INTO HEAVEN? NO, THERE IS NO SUCH VERSE.
THIS SECTION, AND THE DESCRIPTION OF CHRIST COMING TO EARTH, IS A VISION / A REVELATION ("I WAS IN THE SPIRIT") INITIATED BY GOD WHO GAVE IT TO JESUS CHRIST WHO THEN GAVE IT TO HIS ANGEL WHO THEN GAVE IT TO JOHN TO WRITE DOWN IN THE BOOK OF "REVELATION" (See 3.3 FROM WHOM DID JESUS CHRIST RECEIVE THE REVELATION IN THE BOOK OF REVELATION? GOD, 'WHOSE WILL BE DONE?' (4th Ed) by Mark Grant Davis, 2015, pp. 42-44); IT IS A VISION THAT ORIGINATES FROM ALMIGHTY GOD (WHICH IS THEN ADDED TO BY CHRIST, CHRIST'S ANGEL AND JOHN) WITH REFERENCES TO BEINGS, BODY DESCRIPTIONS, AND PROPHETIC EVENTS THAT WILL OCCUR UPON THE EARTH AND IN THE SKY / HEAVEN AT GOD'S APPOINTED TIMES. JUST LIKE THE STATUE OF THE GOLD / SILVER / BRASS / IRON / CLAY MAN WHICH GOD SHOWED TO KING NEBUCHADNEZZAR AND DANIEL IN A DREAM (SEE ABOVE (2) ISSUE RE "CHILDREN WILL BE NEEDED FOR KINGDOM TO FILL THE WHOLE EARTH AND BEDS WILL BE USED BUT NOT FOR SLEEPING" (24-26 FEBRUARY 2019)) SO, TOO, CAN THE DESCRIPTIONS OF PARTICULAR PEOPLE AND BEINGS IN DREAMS / VISIONS NOT CORRELATE TO ACTUAL ATTRIBUTES OF BEINGS, BODIES AND THINGS - IT IS A VISION AND IS TO BE HANDLED AS A VISION. HENCE, THE MENTION OF 'EYES OF FIRE', 'FEET AS BRASS', 'SWORD COMING OUT OF THE MOUTH' SHOULD NOT DIMINISH OR DISCOUNT OTHER VERSES WHICH ARE NOT STATED TO BE VISIONS BUT ARE RECORDED AS ACTUAL DESCRIPTIONS OF, FOR EXAMPLE, CHRIST'S RESURRECTED BODY WHICH HE SAID HAS "FLESH AND BONES" (SEE FOLLOWING WEBPAGES). WE WILL HAVE FLESH AND BONES JUST LIKE THE RESURRECTED BODY OF JESUS CHRIST IS DESCRIBED AS HAVING IN SCRIPTURE - WE WILL KISS, HUG, MAKE LOVE AND HAVE BABIES AND REPLENISH THE EARTH; WE WILL NOT STAB EACH OTHER WHILE KISSING NOR BURN CARPET WITH FLAMING HOT FEET.
Regarding: [1] It is not expedient for me doubtless to glory. I WILL COME TO VISIONS AND REVELATIONS of the Lord. [2] I knew a man in Christ above fourteen years ago, (whether in the body, I cannot tell; or whether out of the body, I cannot tell: God knows;) such an one CAUGHT UP [Greek word: ἁρπάζω (harpazō) "caught up / caught away"] TO THE THIRD HEAVEN. [3] And I knew such a man, (whether in the body, or out of the body, I cannot tell: God knows;) [4] How that he was CAUGHT UP [Greek word: ἁρπάζω (harpazō) "caught up / caught away"] INTO PARADISE, and heard unspeakable words, which it is not lawful for a man to utter (2 Corinthians 12: 1-4 KJV EMPHASIS MINE).
In the above Scripture, PAUL IS TALKING ABOUT A "VISION" and DOES NOT STATE THAT THIS "THIRD HEAVEN" IS A CURRENT REALITY WITH HUMAN BEINGS LIVING IN A THIRD HEAVEN NOW (rather it is a vision just as John writes of the FUTURE of the Earth when he was shown events and places that will occur in the "Book of Revelation"). Does The Bible state that there are 3 layers of heavens above the "Firmament"? It does not but declares that God sits above the circle of the Earth above the Firmament (See my book "The Earth - Magnificent, Dynamic & Created By God" link on the "7 BOOK COLLECTION / TEXT FOR EMAILS / OTHER VIEWS" Webpage on this Website).
To assume that the above section of Scripture negates our dwelling with Jesus Christ in the clouds and later upon the Earth during His 1,000 Year Reign, because we are going to (allegedly) dwell in a "Third Heaven" when we die, is unfounded in Scripture and challenges The Bible and the revelation given from The Holy Spirit in these End Times. We will reside wherever Christ resides (See the following Webpages and "Life After Our Redemption") - in the sky after we are snatched up to be with Him in the clouds and shortly afterwards back on the Earth for His 1,000 Year Reign prophesied many times in The Bible.
How many "heavens" does The Scripture mention in 2 Peter 3?: [5] For this they willingly are ignorant of, that by the Word of God THE HEAVENS were of old, and THE EARTH standing out of the water and in the water: [6] Whereby THE WORLD THAT THEN WAS, being overflowed with water, PERISHED: [7] BUT THE HEAVENS AND THE EARTH, WHICH ARE NOW, by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men ... [10] But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which THE HEAVENS SHALL PASS AWAY with a great noise, and the elements SHALL MELT WITH FERVENT HEAT, THE EARTH also and the works that are therein SHALL BE BURNED UP. [11] Seeing then that all these things SHALL BE DISSOLVED, what manner of persons ought you to be in all holy conversation and godliness, [12] Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God, wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat? [13] Nevertheless we, according to HIS PROMISE, LOOK FOR NEW HEAVENS AND A NEW EARTH, wherein dwelleth righteousness (2 Peter 3: 5-7, 10-13 KJV EMPHASIS MINE). AND NOTE THAT THESE HEAVENS AND EARTHS DO NOT EXIST AT THE SAME MOMENT OF TIME - IT IS IN SEQUENTIAL ORDER: ONE COMES AFTER THE OTHER AS IN 1 - 2 - 3. [See also: [1] And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first [FORMER*] heaven and the first [FORMER**] earth were passed away; and there was no more sea (Revelation 21: 1 KJV EMPHASIS MINE). *(Greek word: πρῶτος (prōtos) first, before or former - see Revelation 21: 4 "former things"); **(Greek word: πρώτη (prōtē) first, before or former - see Revelation 21: 4 "former things")]
Are these "heavens" declared to exist in the same time period? No; THE THIRD "HEAVENS" WILL BE CREATED AFTER THIS CURRENT EARTH (AND HEAVEN) ARE BURNED UP AT THE END OF CHRIST'S 1,000 YEAR REIGN and God's Throne and the Throne of Jesus Christ ("The Lamb of God") will both sit on the "New Earth" in the "New Jerusalem" (See Following Webpages and Book: "Life After Our Redemption"). THIS NEW EARTH WILL BE THE THIRD EARTH AND THE NEW HEAVENS WILL BE THE THIRD HEAVEN. Some confuse what Paul says here as being three separate heavens existing at the one moment of time which is incorrect and confuses the message given by The Holy Spirit in The Scriptures and the revelations given in these End Times. Paul was taken away by a vision into the future and was shown the FUTURE "heavens" which are yet to be created by God - it is a vision of a future heaven - not a current reality.
We will reside wherever Christ resides (See the following Webpages and "Life After Our Redemption") - in the sky after we are snatched up to be with Him in the clouds and shortly afterwards back on the Earth for His 1,000 Year Reign prophesied many times in The Bible. After Christ's Reign on this current Earth we will live together on the New (THIRD) Earth and in the New (THIRD) Heavens. This "Third Heavens and Earth" will have "PARADISE RESTORED" on the New Earth which is another subject for another time but mentioned by The Holy Spirit in "Life After Our Redemption". (And God's Throne will be upon the New Earth which will be in the "New Jerusalem" created in Heaven and brought down to the surface of the New (THIRD) Earth - See below and following Webpages.)

Regarding: [20] And when He was demanded of the Pharisees, when the kingdom of God should come, He answered them and said, THE KINGDOM OF GOD COMES NOT WITH OBSERVATION: [21] Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for, behold, THE KINGDOM OF GOD IS WITHIN YOU (Luke 17: 20-21 KJV Emphasis mine) AND [6] Yet have I SET MY KING UPON MY HOLY HILL OF ZION. [7] I will declare the decree: the Lord has said unto Me, You are My Son; this day have I begotten You. [8] Ask of Me, and I SHALL GIVE YOU THE HEATHEN FOR YOUR INHERITANCE, AND THE UTTERMOST PARTS OF THE EARTH FOR YOUR POSSESSION. [9] You shall break them with a rod of iron; You shall dash them in pieces like a potter's vessel. [10] Be wise now therefore, O you kings: be instructed, you judges of the Earth. [11] Serve The Lord with fear, and rejoice with trembling. [12] Kiss The Son, lest He be angry, and you perish from the way, when His Wrath is kindled but a little. Blessed are all they that put their trust in Him (Psalm 2: 6-12 KJV Emphasis mine).
How can "the Kingdom of Heaven" (WITHIN YOU) be the same as "the Kingdom" that God and Christ will establish (UPON THE EARTH) with Christ ruling over the people of the Earth? And for some to say that the "within you Kingdom" negates all the prophesies and revelations about the upcoming 1,000 Year Reign of Jesus Christ is totally unfounded in Scripture and void of any lingual text (or logical argument). The Spirit of The Lord has not declared this gross contradiction - neither in Scripture nor in any End Times revelation - and it is a feeble attempt to refute the prophesies of Jesus Christ setting up HIS PHYSICAL REIGN OVER THIS VERY EARTH ON WHICH WE CURRENTLY DWELL.
Christ will descend from above to this Earth and physically remove all His enemies; He will be The Full and Complete Sovereign and He will delegate this power and authority, given to Him by Almighty God, to His Brothers and Sisters whom He will have just previously made immortal in the clouds (at what the Scripture refers to as the "Harpazo" which is also called "The Rapture") (SEE BELOW (7) ISSUE RE "THE BELIEVERS IN CHRIST "SNATCHED" QUICKLY UP INTO THE CLOUDS AND NOT BEING SURPRISED WHEN IT HAPPENS (THOUGH UNAWARE OF ITS ACTUAL DATE OR TIME)" (24 DECEMBER 2019)
Regarding: [5.1] BUT OF THE TIMES AND THE SEASONS, brethren, YOU HAVE NO NEED THAT I WRITE UNTO YOU. [2] FOR YOURSELVES KNOW PERFECTLY THAT THE DAY OF THE LORD SO COMES AS A THIEF IN THE NIGHT. [3] For WHEN THEY SAY, PEACE AND SAFETY; then sudden destruction comes upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape. [4] BUT YOU, BRETHREN, ARE NOT IN DARKNESS, THAT THAT DAY SHOULD OVERTAKE YOU AS A THIEF. [5] You are all the children of light, and the children of the day: we are not of the night, nor of darkness. [6] Therefore let us not sleep, as do others; but LET US WATCH and be sober. [7] For they that sleep sleep in the night; and they that be drunken are drunken in the night. [8] But let us, who are of the day, be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love; and for an helmet, the hope of salvation. [9] For God has not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ, [10] Who died for us, that, whether we wake or sleep, we should live together with him. [11] Wherefore comfort yourselves together, and edify one another, even as also ye do (1 Thessalonians 5: 1-11 (KJV) Emphasis mine).
While the Return of Jesus Christ to the Earth to establish His 1,000 Year (physical) Reign will be preceded with many prophesied signs in the sky and upon the Earth, the Appearing of Jesus Christ in the clouds (NOT UPON THE EARTH AT THIS TIME) at the "Harpazo" Event declared in 1 Corinthians 15 and 1 Thessalonians 4: 13-18, 5: 1-11 will not be expected by unbelievers but anticipated by Believers whom the Scripture admonishes are to "WATCH" so that this "Harpazo" Event will not take them by surprise. Some churches teach that the "Harpazo" Event will be a surprise to everyone BUT THE BIBLE SAYS THAT A BELIEVER CAN WATCH TO THE POINT THAT THEY ARE NOT TAKEN BY SURPRISE.
