Marching to Zion: Part Three
As you remember, last Sunday we began looking at the eight beautiful characteristics of the eternal “Mount Zion” as set forth in Hebrews 12:22-24. We identified four of the eight:
First, it is the “city of the living God” (v. 22).
Second, it is also known as “the heavenly Jerusalem” (v. 22).
Third, it is the place where there are “innumerable angels in festal garments” (v. 23).
Fourth, it is also “the assembly of the first born” (v. 23).
This Lord’s Day, we will consider the remaining four features of our eternal home with Christ, “Mount Zion”:
It is where we are “enrolled” as citizens (v. 23).
It is where “the Judge” resides (v. 23).
It is where the “righteous” are (v. 23).
It is where “Jesus” is (v. 24).
There is no doubt that as we more fully realize what awaits us, what God has promise us, we will be powerfully encouraged and uplifted as we serve Him!
