The scripture above seems to conclusively say that the many [who go by the broad way] are healed after resurrection to the new earth ...Rev 20:1 ¶ And I saw a new heaven and a new earth; for, the first heaven and the first earth, have passed away, and, the sea, is no more.
2 And, the holy city, new Jerusalem, saw I coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.
...
Rev 21:1 ¶ And he pointed out to me a river of water of life, bright as crystal, issuing forth out of the throne of God and of the Lamb,
2 in the midst of the broadway thereof. And, on this side of the river and on that, was a tree of life, bearing twelve crops of fruit, every several month, yielding its fruit; and, the leaves of the tree, were for the healing of the nations
It contradicts mainline christianity rather completely ...
But Jesus said that the many are saved after the few [Rev 7:9-10] and we know that only the few find the narrow strit way, sealed as saints from further sin in life in THIS world...
so there is indeed more than hope in Jesus Christ for the many who die sinners and/or in disbelief
Jesus again lists the few , who they are, in Rev 7:3-8 and that these are sealed as saints, they are not any of them sinners any longer by the time of Jesus' return , as the many are who are saved after death ... in the new earth... after the second resurrection.... accoprding to the scripture, but not according to mainline christianity !!!Matthew 7:14 Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.
Does one believe confessed sinners who run modern christianity their way, or the scripture of Jesus and the saints , cos' they are very different ?
2 Timothy 2:19 Nevertheless the foundation of God standeth sure, having this seal, The Lord knoweth them that are his. And, Let every one that nameth the name of Christ depart from iniquity.
