* In the new heaven and new earth, we will not even remember this present life.

Joan Boney ... apostle & prophet of Jesus Christ according to Ephesians 4:11-12.

Isaiah 65  God says:

17 For, behold, I create new heavens and a new earth: and the former shall not be remembered, nor come into mind.

18  But be ye glad and rejoice for ever in that which I create: for, behold, I create Jerusalem a rejoicing, and her people a joy.

19  And I will rejoice in Jerusalem, and joy in MY people: and the voice of weeping shall be no more heard in her, nor the voice of crying.

The new Jerusalem wherein dwelleth righteousness:

II Peter 3

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 ye 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.

We will never be able to make this current earth righteous.  God calls HIS own people to be righteous on this earth and therein dwells righteousness in HIS people.  But many are not people of God and they do unrighteousness on this earth.

Total righteousness will be in the new heavens and new earth.

Revelation 22

16 Blessed are they that do His commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city.

15 For without are dogs, and sorcerers, and whoremongers, and murderers, and idolaters, and whosoever loveth and maketh a lie.

For those allowed into the new heavens and new earth will be righteous as God is righteous.

Here is the new heaven and new earth, the new Jerusalem:

Revelation 21

1 And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea.

2 And I John saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.

3 And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and He will dwell with them, and they shall be His people, and God Himself shall be with them, and be their God.

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.

5 And HE that sat upon the throne said, Behold, I make all things new.

***

We, who are the children of God, and walk in the Spirit of God, doing the will of God, will not have these current fleshly bodies.  We will be given, by God, new spiritual bodies. (I Cor. 15)

It is by these fleshly bodies that we suffer the physical pains of this body and also the emotional pains.  We will not have bodies subject to pain in the new Jerusalem.

God gives us new spiritual bodies in which we live in the new Jerusalem:

I Corinthians 15

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.

50 Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; neither doth corruption inherit incorruption.

51 Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep (die), but we shall all be changed,

52 In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.

The righteous, who are alive on this earth at the time Jesus returns, shall not die but shall be changed out of these present fleshly bodies to rise to meet Jesus and the dead in Christ who have been raised from their graves.

Everyone will be in their new spiritual bodies, not in these bodies that we have known on this earth.

It will all happen so fast.  Blink your eyes.  That is how fast we will be changed.

And at that time, Isaiah says:  "and the former shall not be remembered, nor come into mind."   (Isaiah 65:17) 

All, in heaven, will be righteous, the children of God, the family of God, our family in heaven.   And the presence of God and The Word (Jesus) will overwhelm all.  

(I think in the new Jerusalem, we will be the bride of Christ, as the church.)

Therefore, we will not notice that anyone from this present life is missing since this present life will not come to mind.

There will be no pain nor sorrow in the new heaven.

We basically have to quit worrying about the salvation of people that we know on this present earth.  We speak the Word of God continually as that Word is brought to our mind.  Those who will be saved, will be saved.

Take heed to yourselves ... Do that which you believe God shows you to do.  Walk in HIS Spirit continually as HE gives you information.  Do that.  Everything else falls in line as God wills.

Romans 8:1  There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.
