11 tabernacle of God

When God has concluded His final judgment on man, a new heaven and a new earth are seen, with the first heaven and first earth having passed away. And a new holy city of Jerusalem is seen coming down from God out of heaven.

A great voice is heard out of heaven saying: "Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and He will dwell with them, and they shall be His people, and God Himself shall be with them, and be their God." [#18]

It is at this point that eternity begins on a 'new earth' where God will be with man forever.
