Behind the Curtain

The physical and spiritual worlds are connected by an open door. That’s the curtain that was torn when Jesus Christ was crucified. What the mind cannot grasp, the eyes cannot see. All that lives, moves, and exists can be found behind the open curtain. Because of the conflict between our physical and spiritual selves, our lives have been difficult. The conflict between the two brings us closer to experiencing God’s complete presence and entering into becoming part of the New Jerusalem coming out of heaven.

Certain religious groups think that only their members are eligible to enter or be caught away, as described in their interpretation of scripture. You must overcome the flesh and the world to truly gain entry. Only five virgins had oil in their lamps when the bridegroom arrived, the rest were turned away. Upon their return with oil, they discovered the door shut.  

He who overcomes, I will make him a pillar in the temple of My God, and he shall go out no more (Revelation 3:12).

This temple is different from the temples these same religious groups possess on earth. We embody heaven on earth as the heavenly tabernacle. The new Jerusalem is us. Our journey beyond the veil and the physical merged us with everything that is, was, and will be. God dwells with His people in this place. We’ve longed for God’s presence in our current condition. Instead of going through the curtain, past the flesh and the world. Going through the curtain, we become heavenly beings walking the earth, like Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ accomplished this task beyond the realm of the physical body and the world.

Blessed is he who overcomes!
