Revelation Session 40 - Chapter 21 - New Jerusalem

Chapter 21 of Revelation gives us a look at the New Heaven and New Earth, including New Jerusalem. In my view, the Pre-Tribulation, Premillennial, Restorationist perspective, the New Jerusalem, which is identified with the Bride of Christ, the Church, is our home. Christ returns WITH his church. That puts the New Jerusalem coming down to earth, with Christ and we in our new home, not hanging around in Heaven for a thousand years. Also, Christ will have to "make all things new" at the beginning of the millennium, not the end. The earth is a complete mess. This fits with the language of Revelation 16 as well as the hyperbolic destructiveness of The Day of the Lord spoken of in 2 Peter 3 and the parent passage of Peter found in Isaiah 65.
