Mary The New Jerusalem by Nobody: 11:40am On Mar 05, 2015
Cc Kizmarty
21 Then I saw “a new heaven and a new earth,” [ a ] for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and there was no longer any sea.
This is talking about Jesus taking over from Adam who was created without sin but fell short of his glory. Jesus is the new Adam while Mary is the new Eve.
2 I saw the Holy City, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride beautifully dressed for her husband.
3 And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, “Look! God’s dwelling place is now among the people, and he will dwell with them. They will be his people, and God himself will be with them and be their God.
4 ‘He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death’ [ b ] or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away.”
5 He who was seated on the throne said, “I am making everything new!” Then he said, “Write this down, for these words are trustworthy and true.”


Further bible verses that explains it....
Genesis 3:15
15 And I will put enmity
between you and the woman,
and between your offspring [ a ] and hers;
he will crush [ b ] your head,
and you will strike his heel.”

Isaiah 7:14
14. "Therefore the Lord Himself will give you a sign, Behold, the Virgin shall conceive and bear a Son, shall call His name, Immanuel.

Galatians 4:4
4 But when the fulness of the time was come, God sent forth his Son, made of a woman, made under the law,


Isaiah9:6
6: For unto us a Child is born,
Unto us a Son is given;
And the government will be upon His shoulder.
And His name will be called Wonderful, Couselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.

Answer the guy because most of what you post up there are either vague or childish exaggeration of some Biblical words at its highest peak; calling Mary the new Eve, for example.

5) Eve is the mother of all living.

I was about refuting all the claims above, but I realized the OT and NT has no connection. The purpose of the former is different from the latter.

OT has no intention of "saving the world from original sin through the death of any son of God" The Adam and Eve's story was only used to explain why human suffers. NT is kinda a propaganda

Provide a biblical verse to support your spurious claim. Gaddemmit! angry

Psalm22

16. For dogs have surrounded Me;
The congregation of the wicked has enclosed Me.
They pierced My hands and My feet;
17. I can count all My bones.
They look and stare at Me.
18. They divide My garments among them,
And for My clothing they cast lots.

Exactly. And there are still others (bigots) who don't reason with their brain to check their religion; they only accept everything their pastors vomit on the altar as true, and going contrary would be disatrous for them. They are in the prison of fear and ignorance - my signature.

there is more than one interpretation for that passage, many will say FT's interpretatiom is allegorical which may explain why u don't understand it.

And yes the literal interpretation is that God thru Christ is brings a "new kingdom", a heaven join to earth, where God is all in all. But if u understand this rightly and draw the exact biblical parrallels u will see that the new heaven and earth will be manifest fully after the last judgement but that it was already inaugurated by Christ 2000 years ago when he became man and that mary represent the new jerusalem, the people of God.

If you have an idea wat i am talkin about pls let me know so i can see if i can explain better.

.

That a time will come possibly after the judgement day,God will bring back all the righteous dead souls and those alive worthy of his promise.He'll make them live in a new earth devoid of suffering and death while the earth will be governed by Jesus and his 1,200(not very sure) saints from heaven.

Nb: there won't be an earthly government,this is where i have problem with them

Take note: they didn't mention hell.they believe.those evil people not worthy of this promise won't be brought back.that's their punishment cus they feel God is too good to punish his creatures with everlasting burning as many others teach.

On a side note: The new Jerusalem has not and could not be MARY ( a human being) Read the rest part of that scriptures and compare it with passages that mention the Holy Jerusalem that comes from Heaven.
