Revelation 21:3-5 In your anger do not sin: And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, "Now the dwelling of God is with men, and he will live with them. They will be his people, and God himself will be with them and be their God. He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away. He who was seated on the throne said, "I am making everything new!" The he said, "Write this down, for these words are trustworthy and true."

Commentary: This is the "hope" of every Christian. It is the reward of our faithful service and our trust in Christ. No worldly achievement can withstand comparison to heaven.
