The Last Great Day
October 1, 2018

Very few Christians are aware of the Holy Days listed in the Bible which conclude with the Last Great Day, which is observed today by first-century apostolic Christians like me. It was during this day, the last great day of the feast that Jesus stood up and proclaimed that those who believed on Jesus would have rivers of living water flowing from their bellies, signifying a flood of the holy spirit among believers.

John 7:37-39
In the last day, that great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried, saying, If any man thirst, let him come unto me, and drink. He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water. But this spake he of the Spirit, which they that believe on him should receive: for the Holy Ghost was not yet given; because that Jesus was not yet glorified.)

Today also signifies a future time when New Jerusalem is established on earth. From Revelation, we know it is those who believe on Jesus and who overcome all things who will receive the waters of life in the final sense as pictured by Revelation. People who are fearful, unbelieving, abominable, murderers, whoremongers, sorcerers, idolaters, and liars will not receive these waters of life and will instead be incinerated in the finality of eternal death.

Revelation 21:6-8
And he said unto me, It is done. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. I will give unto him that is athirst of the fountain of the water of life freely. He that overcometh shall inherit all things; and I will be his God, and he shall be my son. But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.

Those who do overcome all things will see this future New Jerusalem, a city more opulent than any building or city ever imagined by man, made of precious stones and metals with pearls forming the city gates. Unlike Jerusalem of old, this city has no temple because the presence of God the Father and Jesus Christ are the temple of this city, and the radiance of these two will exceed the radiance of the sun by day and the moon by night. It is during this time that only righteousness exists; all evil will be put away.

Revelation 21:9-27
And there came unto me one of the seven angels which had the seven vials full of the seven last plagues, and talked with me, saying, Come hither, I will shew thee the bride, the Lamb's wife. And he carried me away in the spirit to a great and high mountain, and shewed me that great city, the holy Jerusalem, descending out of heaven from God, Having the glory of God: and her light was like unto a stone most precious, even like a jasper stone, clear as crystal; And had a wall great and high, and had twelve gates, and at the gates twelve angels, and names written thereon, which are the names of the twelve tribes of the children of Israel: On the east three gates; on the north three gates; on the south three gates; and on the west three gates. And the wall of the city had twelve foundations, and in them the names of the twelve apostles of the Lamb. And he that talked with me had a golden reed to measure the city, and the gates thereof, and the wall thereof. And the city lieth foursquare, and the length is as large as the breadth: and he measured the city with the reed, twelve thousand furlongs. The length and the breadth and the height of it are equal. And he measured the wall thereof, an hundred and forty and four cubits, according to the measure of a man, that is, of the angel. And the building of the wall of it was of jasper: and the city was pure gold, like unto clear glass. And the foundations of the wall of the city were garnished with all manner of precious stones. The first foundation was jasper; the second, sapphire; the third, a chalcedony; the fourth, an emerald; The fifth, sardonyx; the sixth, sardius; the seventh, chrysolite; the eighth, beryl; the ninth, a topaz; the tenth, a chrysoprasus; the eleventh, a jacinth; the twelfth, an amethyst. And the twelve gates were twelve pearls; every several gate was of one pearl: and the street of the city was pure gold, as it were transparent glass. And I saw no temple therein: for the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb are the temple of it. And the city had no need of the sun, neither of the moon, to shine in it: for the glory of God did lighten it, and the Lamb is the light thereof. And the nations of them which are saved shall walk in the light of it: and the kings of the earth do bring their glory and honour into it. And the gates of it shall not be shut at all by day: for there shall be no night there. And they shall bring the glory and honour of the nations into it. And there shall in no wise enter into it any thing that defileth, neither whatsoever worketh abomination, or maketh a lie: but they which are written in the Lamb's book of life.

This day, the Last Great Day looks forward to this future time when those whose name are written in the Lamb's book of life, will commune with God the Father and Jesus Christ. Peace and happiness as it was always intended will be all that is known on earth and everyone lives happily ever after.
