DANIEL AND THE REVELATION-Uriah Smith

                                 ~The Response of History to the Revelation~

                                          Chapter 21 – The New Jerusalem
                   But it appears from some  of  our  Saviour’s


               parables, as in Matthew 25:21, 23, that some


               will occupy in a special sense the position of


               rulers, and may thus be spoken of as kings of


               the earth, in connection with the nations of the


               saved. These bring their glory and honor into



               the city, when on the Sabbaths and new moons


               they  there  come  up  to  worship  before  God.


               Isaiah 66:23.



               Reader, do you want a part in the unspeakable


               and eternal glories of this heavenly city? See


               to  it,  then,  that  your  name  is  written  in  the


               Lamb’s  book  of  life;  for  those  only  whose


               names are on that heavenly “roll of honor” can


               enter there.
