Peace and grace in the love of our Lord Jesus Christ.

The threethings that we must pay attention to for enteringthe New Jerusalemare as follows:

  1. Revelation 21:27, namely the names must be written in the Book of Life of the Lamb of God. Those are the people who have been redeemed by the blood of Jesus, so they are set free from the sin.

  2. Revelation 22:1, namely a pure river of water of life, proceeding from the throne of God. We must experience the power of Holy Spirit.

  3. The tree of life.

Revelation 22:2

22:2. In the middle of its street, and on either side of the river, was the tree of life, which bore twelve fruits, each tree yielding its fruit every month. The leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations.

We must eat the fruit of the tree of life.
The tree of life yields its fruit every month and its fruit gives eternal life in the New Jerusalem.
The leaves of the tree are for the healing of the nations.

The three kinds of the fruit of the tree of life are as follows:

  1. The fruit of the righteousness.
    Proverbs 11:30
    11:30. The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life, And he who wins souls is wise.

    Romans 4:25
    4:25. who was delivered up because of our offenses, and was raised because of our justification.

    Jesus is the tree of life that results the fruit of the righteousness, but He must die on the cross to bear our sin. He sets us free from the sin until we can be dead to sin and raised for living in righteousness.

    The facts found in the fruit of the righteousness are as follows:

    • Being dead to sin or repenting and living in righteousness.
      1 Peter 2:24
      2:24. who Himself bore our sins in His own body on the tree, that we, having died to sins, might live for righteousness--by whose stripes you were healed.

      The process is entering the true water baptism.

      Romans 6:2
      6:2. Certainly not! How shall we who died to sin live any longer in it?

      The requirement of the true water baptism is believing in Jesus and repenting or being dead to sin.

      Romans 6:4
      6:4. Therefore we were buried with Him through baptism into death, that just as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life.

      The implementation of the true water baptism is that one who has died to sin or repented must be buried in the water with Jesus and come out or rise from water with Him, so the heavens are opened and he receives new life, namely life in righteousness. We must live in righteousness in all aspects of our life.

      The result is that we yield the fruit of the righteousness and get the healing or health by Jesus' stripes.
      The physical health is in the body, economy, study, et cetera.
      The spiritual health is being faithful and true in the ministry. The spiritual disease means being lukewarm, namely one is not faithful and true in the ministry. It continues until he dies spiritually. He does not want to minister, but keeps committing sin, so he is destroyed.
      The health of the marriage and children is that it must be true according to the Word. It is also holy, sweet, and happy up to perfection.

    • Not being deceived,but shepherded well and correctly.
      1 Peter 2:25
      2:25. For you were like sheep going astray, but have now returned to the Shepherd and Overseer of your souls.

      If one is not shepherded, he will surely be deceived by the false teaching and gossip,so he goes to the hell.

      That is why we must be shepherded well and correctly. We are always in the sheepfold, namely the perseverance in committing the three kinds of main service.

      Acts 2:41-42
      2:41. Then those who gladly received his word were baptized; and that day about three thousand souls were added to them.
      2:42. And they continued steadfastly in the apostles' doctrine and fellowship, in the breaking of bread, and in prayers.


      We can eat the Word, namely obedience to the shepherding Word or the Word which is entrusted by God to a shepherd to be preached to the congregation faithfully, regularly, continually, and repetitively to become the food for them.

      We can sit down on the grass. It means being firm in the shepherding. We cannot be made fall or deceived.

      We can lie down. It means experiencing God's preservation abundantly, so we can give thanks. We experience peace, so all things become easy and light.

    Not willingly repenting and being shepherded, the consequence is being chastened by God.
    Hebrews 12:11
    12:11. Now no chastening seems to be joyful for the present, but painful; nevertheless, afterward it yields the peaceable fruit of righteousness to those who have been trained by it.

    Chastening seems to be painful, so we can repent and live in righteousness. We are also shepherded, so we yield the fruit of the righteousness. We keep having health and peace. We are taken care of by God.

  2. The fruitof wisdomor obedience.
    Proverbs 3:13-18
    3:13. Happy is the man who finds wisdom, And the man who gains understanding;
    3:14. For her proceeds are better than the profits of silver, And her gain than fine gold.
    3:15. She is more precious than rubies, And all the things you may desire cannot compare with her.
    3:16. Length of days is in her right hand, In her left hand riches and honor.
    3:17. Her ways are ways of pleasantness, And all her paths are peace.
    3:18. She is a tree of life to those who take hold of her, And happy are all who retain her.


    1 Corinthians 1:23-24
    1:23. but we preach Christ crucified, to the Jews a stumbling block and to the Greeks foolishness,
    1:24. but to those who are called, both Jews and Greeks,
    Christ the power of God and the wisdom of God.

    Jesus dies on the cross, so He becomes the power and wisdom.

    Philippians 2:8
    2:8. And being found in appearance as a man, He humbled Himself and became obedient to the point of death, even the death of the cross.

    The fruit of wisdom is the one of obedience.

    2 Timothy 3:15
    3:15. and that from childhood you have known the Holy Scriptures, which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus.

    We receive the heavenly wisdom from the Bible or the teaching Word.

    The process of resulting the fruit of wisdom is as follows:

    • Holy Spirit helps us to read and hear the Word earnestly and with a need like the dog which licks the crumbs.

      Psalm119:131
      119:131. I opened my mouth and panted, For I longed for Your commandments.

      We hear the Word until we understand it. The fact is being slow to speak and wrath. We just keep silent.

    • Trusting the Word, so it becomes faith in the heart.
      The Word becomes the brake to not sinning. It means being saved.

    • Practicing the Word or obeying the Word up to sacrificing anything.
      The Word which is practiced will become the heavenly wisdom.

    The usefulness of the fruit of wisdom is as follows:

    • God protects us from disaster and the Antichrist.
      Revelation 13:16-18
      13:16. He causes all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hand or on their foreheads,
      13:17. and that no one may buy or sell except one who has the mark or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.
      13:18. Here is wisdom. Let him who has understanding calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man: His number is 666.


    • We experience the purification.
      1 Peter 1:22
      1:22. Since you have purified your souls in obeying the truth through the Spirit in sincere love of the brethren, love one another fervently with a pure heart,

      It starts from the heart. The heart is purified from the one that tends to do evil continually, namely the evil desire, unclean desire, and bitterness, so we have the pure heart.

      The idle words are purified to become holy ones. The sinful deed and mind are purified, so we live in holiness.

      Ephesians 4:11-12
      4:11. And He Himself gave some to be apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, and some pastors and teachers,
      4:12. for the equipping of the saints
      for the work of ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ,

      We are equipped with the ministry and Holy Spirit's gift. It is the tunic of many colors. We are used in the revival of Holy Spirit in the last rain, namely the building of the perfect body of Christ, starting from marriage, shepherding, inter-shepherding until the Israelites and Gentiles become one perfect body of Christ.

      The facts are as follows:

      1. Our life becomes beautiful. We can love one another with a pure heart. We just do the good thing up to repaying good for evil. We are happy.

      2. We can be advised and reproved.
        1 Timothy 1:5
        1:5. Now the purpose of the commandment is love from a pure heart, from a good conscience, and from sincere faith,


      It means placing Jesus as the Head who has been responsible over our life. God makes all things well and beautifully in His time.

  3. The fruit of a wholesome tongue.
    Proverbs 15:4
    15:4. A wholesome tongueis a tree of life, But perverseness in it breaks the spirit.

    James 3:4-5
    3:4. Look also at ships: although they are so large and are driven by fierce winds, they are turned by a very small rudder wherever the pilot desires.
    3:5. Even so the tongue is a little member and boasts great things. See how great a forest a little fire kindles!


    The tongue is the rudder that determines our life. Having a wholesome tongue, we will go to the New Jerusalem forever. Otherwise, we will go to Babylon. We are destroyed because of having the unruly evil tongue.

    James 3:7-8
    3:7. For every kind of beast and bird, of reptile and creature of the sea, is tamed and has been tamed by mankind.
    3:8. But no man can tame the
    tongue. It is an unruly evil, full of deadly poison.

    The tongue that is an unruly evil comes from the hard heart which is controlled by the three beasts, namely Satan in heaven with the unclean spirit, the false prophet on the earth with the false teaching, gossip, and lie, and the Antichrist in the sea with the power of Mammon.

    The facts found in a unruly evil tongue are as follows:

    • Perverseness or lying or untrue word. It hurts others' heart.
      Proverbs 15:4
      15:4. A wholesome tongue is a tree of life, But perverseness in it breaks the spirit.


    • A harsh word that stirs up anger, so there is no peace.
      Proverbs 15:1
      15:1. A soft answer turns away wrath, But a harsh wordstirs up anger.


    • The mouth of fools, namely grumbling, gossiping, and evil speaking. It comes from the empty heart that is not satisfied.
      Proverbs 15:2
      15:2. The tongue of the wise uses knowledge rightly, But the mouth of foolspours forth foolishness.

      He cannot be advised and reproved, so he dies spiritually up to perdition.

    Philippians 2:8-11
    2:8. And being found in appearance as a man, He humbled Himself and became obedient to the point of death, even the death of the cross.
    2:9. Therefore God also has highly exalted Him and given Him the name which is above every name,
    2:10. that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those in heaven, and of those on earth, and of those under the earth,
    2:11. and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.


    The way out is that Jesus must become obedient to the point of death on the cross, so He receives the name which is above every name to defeat the trinity of Satan. He sets our tongue free from the bond of the trinity of Satan. As a result, we have a wholesome tongue that comes from being lowly in heart and gentleness.

    Luke 23:34
    23:34. Then Jesus said, "Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they do." And they divided His garments and cast lots.

    The gentleness means that one can forgive others' sin and forget it.

    Acts 7:60
    7:60. Then he knelt down and cried out with a loud voice, "Lord, do not charge them with this sin." And when he had said this, he fell asleep.

    Luke 23:41-42
    23:41. "And we indeed justly, for we receive the due reward of our deeds; but this Man has done nothing wrong."
    23:42. Then he said to Jesus, "Lord, remember me when You come into Your kingdom."


    Being lowly in heart means that one can confess the sin to God and others. Do not sin anymore after being forgiven!

    The tongue can glorify God as well as speak truly and honestly. We can testify and worship God like a baby who cries to Him. We just totally surrender to God. We always depend on God's mercy.

    As a result, God stretches out His merciful hand to finish our sins and its curse. God bears our labor, heavy burden, and tears, so we experience peace.

    Mark 1:40-41
    1:40. Now a leper came to Him, imploring Him, kneeling down to Him and saying to Him, "If You are willing, You can make me clean."
    1:41. Then Jesus, moved with compassion, stretched out His hand and touched him, and said to him, "I am willing; be cleansed."


    The healing power of the physical disease such as in the body or economy, and the spiritual one--leprosy refers to the self-truth.

    God gives beautiful and successful future. It is like Moses who cries, so he is lifted up to become the son of Pharaoh's daughter.

    We experience the atmosphere of Paradise. It continues until we are changed to become perfect. We do not stumble in words.

    James 3:2

    3:2. For we all stumble in many things. If anyone does not stumble in word, he is a perfect man, able also to bridle the whole body.

God blesses us.
