Theme: God Makes All Things New and Dwells Forever With His People
Messianic Focus: Yeshua Brings the New Creation and Completes God’s Redemptive Plan

🌿 Overview

The story of Scripture ends not with escape from the world, but with the renewal of the world.
God’s plan is not simply to redeem souls, but to restore creation itself.

Isaiah 65–66 declares that God will create new heavens and a new earth, a world of joy, justice, and peace.

Ezekiel’s final vision reveals:

• a restored land,
• a renewed Temple,
• a river of life flowing from God’s presence,
• healing for the nations,
• a transformed Jerusalem called:
  “THE LORD IS THERE” — YHWH Shammah.

Revelation 21–22 brings these visions into their fullness:

• a New Jerusalem
• the Tree of Life restored
• no more death, sorrow, pain, or curse
• the dwelling of God among His people
• the Lamb as its light
• the river of life flowing from God’s throne

The final hope of Scripture is the presence of God, face-to-face, forever.
