In its “plot”, the Bible end up very much where it began. The broken relationship between God and human beings has healed over at last, and the curse of Genesis 3 is lifted. Borrowing images from Eden, Revelation pictures a river and a tree of life. But this time a great city replaces the garden setting - a city filled with worshippers of God.No death or sadness will ever darken that scene.

John sees heaven as the fulfillment of every Jewish dream; Jerusalem restored, with walls of jasper and streets of gleaming gold. For someone else- say, a refugee in the developing world today - heaven may represent a family reunited, a home abundant with food and fresh drinking water. Heaven stands for the fulfillment of every true longing.

Revelation promises that our longings are not mere fantasies. They will come true. When we awake in the new heaven and new earth, we will have at last whatever we have longer for. Somehow, from out of all the bad news in a book like Revelation, good news emerges - spectacular Good news.A promise of goodness without a catch in it somewhere. There is a happy ending after all.

It is the final justification of all creation. The Bible never belittles human tragedy and disappointment - is any book more painfully honest? - but it does add one key word : TEMPORARY. What we feel now, we will not always feel. The time for recreation will come.

For people who feel trapped in pain or in a broken home, in economic misery or in fear- for all those people, for all of us , heaven promises a future time, far longer and more substantial than the time we spend on earth , a time of health and wholeness and pleasure and peace. The Bible BEGAN with that promise in the book of Genesis. And the Bible ENDS with that same promise, a GUARANTEE of future reality. 

The end will be a beginning.
