Misthological Models Part 5: A Panoramic View of New Jerusalem

Misthological Models Part 5 continues the author’s exploration of the nature of the outer darkness in relation to New Jerusalem. An examination of New Jerusalem in the historical past and prehistorical past is made in conjunction with theories of pre-Adamic cities to explain how Abraham could be searching for a Heavenly City that existed from before the foundation of the world. Present and future implications regarding New Jerusalem are also explored. Discussions of the existence of both God and the City in their own spacetimes are also evaluated. Principle improvements over The Outer Darkness in the present book include the following: (1) the juxtaposition of a celestial outer darkness for those in celestial bodies as opposed to a terrestrial outer darkness for those in terrestrial bodies; (2) scriptural affirmation that Jesus in His glorified body can be in multiple places at one time and thus as omnipresent as He wishes to be in the fullest sense of the word; (3) inferences that the Bride can be semi-omnipresent; (4) the plausible inference that Jesus is a 7D being with a 6D Bride; (5) the speculation that the Heavenly City might be found in 5D, 4D, and 3D spacetime continuums with hierarchical degrees of access, spatiality, and temporality; (6) the pragmatic suggestion that the 3D City will be replicated; (7) a proposal as to why the gates of the replicated Celestial City correspond to terrestrial access and direction; (8) the proposition that faithful 3D smortals can become 4D immortals who assist in the commerce of the replicated 3D Cities and serve as assistant rulers over other smortals; (9) the broadening of smortals to include select Jews during the tribulational period; (10) the postulation that the Bride will be able to create universes; (11) spatial and temporal visualizations for the higher degree of dimensionality for Lord and Bride; (12) a hypothesis for why the Satanic rebellion at the end of the millennium is allowed.
