The destination. The vision John saw on Patmos when he was an old man. After ten weeks of letters from home, this week we sit with where the road ends.

In this letter

- Where Revelation 21 sits in the Bible — the second-to-last chapter, the destination of the whole story

- The Bible as a journey home, from garden to garden-city

- A slow read of Revelation 21:1-8 (NKJV)

- The direction of the vision — the city coming down, not us going up

- Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men (v.3)

- Behold, I make all things new (v.5)

- The continuity of the new creation — not all new things, but all things new

Scripture

- Revelation 21:1-8

- Genesis 3 (the lost dwelling, referenced)
