By Mike Bradley Now that Satan, all of his fallen angels and all of unsaved humanity have been cast into the Lake of Fire and Brimstone, there is only one thing left. God will now give the rest of saved humanity their final reward - the new heaven and the new earth. Believe it or not, this is actually going to be better than what we will get during the Millennium Kingdom. This will be our final abode and something very awesome happens when we get this new heaven and new earth. When we get the 1000 year Millennium Kingdom, we get Jesus literally coming down from heaven to rule our earth from the city of Jerusalem. When we get the new heaven and the new earth - WE WILL GET GOD THE FATHER HIMSELF LITERALLY COMING DOWN FROM HEAVEN TO OUR NEW EARTH AND NEW HEAVEN TO DWELL AND LIVE AMONG US FOREVER AND EVER! We will now have both Jesus and God the Father dwelling among us. Here is what basically is going to happen.
1. Our earth and our atmospheric heaven will "pass away." In its place, we will get a new earth and a new atmospheric heaven. 2. There will no longer be any seas. 2/3 of the earth is water. With all the sea waters being taken out, we will have more land space in which to accommodate everyone. 3. There will no longer be any night. It will be daylight all the time. There will no longer be any sun or moon to shine their light. The Bible says we no longer have need of the sun or moon because the glory of God will illuminate the earth! 4. There will no longer be any more death in any way, shape or form. The curse of Adam and Eve will have finally been broken and done away with. In the Millennium Kingdom, as good as it is going to be, there is still physical death for those humans who survive the Tribulation and enter into it physically. In addition to "death" in any form being taken out, there will also be no more pain since we will all have spiritual glorified bodies. The Bible says that all sorrow, pain, crying and death will be taken away. Every tear will be wiped away. 5. All things will be made new. I dont think our imaginations can even begin to imagine what this verse is telling us just in that one statement. 6. God the Father Himself will now come onto our earth to live and dwell with us forever and ever. The Bible says that we will no longer need the temple that is in Jerusalem in the Millennium Kingdom. The Bible says that both God the Father and Jesus Christ will now be the Temple of God Themselves! The Bible says that the tabernacle of God will now be with men, that we will dwell with Him, that we will be His people and He will be our God forever and ever. 7. In the Millennium Kingdom, Jesus will rule this earth from the city of Jerusalem. It will be Gods capital. However, in the New Heaven and New Earth, we will get a New Jerusalem.
The Bible says that this new city will be like a square. It's length will be as great as its width. Bible Scholars feel that this city may literally be 1500 miles wide. It will be huge! This new city of Jerusalem will literally descend down from Heaven itself - it comes directly from God to us on this new earth. The Bible says that its walls are constructed of jasper and the city will be pure gold like clear glass. It says that the foundations of the walls will be adorned with all kinds of precious stones - the first foundation being jasper, the second foundation being sapphire, the third foundation being chalcedony and the fourth foundation being emerald, etc. The Bible goes on to state that there are apparently 12 of these foundations and each foundation is made with a different beautiful element. This is all described in Revelations 21:19-20. There will be 12 gates with each of the gates being made of pearl. The streets of this city will be pure gold. Each of the 12 gates will have an angel on it. There will 3 gates each to the north, south, east and west. Since all of the bad people have been taken out, there will be nothing left that will enter this holy city that will defile it or cause any type of abomination in it. The gates to this city will always be open for all to enter in at anytime. Now here are the Scripture verses specifically telling us all of this. The Scripture Verses 1. This first verse tells us that our earth and our heaven as we know it now will "pass away," and in its place we get a new heaven and a new earth. This verse also tells us that there will no more sea in this new earth. Here it is:
"And I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away. Also there was no more sea." (Revelations 21:1)
2. This next verse tells us that the tabernacle of God will come down from heaven onto this new earth and that God Himself will dwell with us - that He will be our God and that we will be His people. This next verse also tells us that God will wipe away every tear, that there will be no more death, sorrow, crying or pain and that He will be making all things brand new! Here it is:
"And I heard a loud voice from 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 will be with them and be their God. And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes; there shall be no more death, nor sorrow, nor crying; and there shall be no more pain, for the former things have passed away." Then He who sat on the throne said, "Behold, I make all things new." (Revelations 21:3-5)
3. This next verse tells us that there will be no more temple - that God and Jesus will be the temple Themselves. It also tells us that we will no longer have the sun or moon because God Himself will illuminate the earth with His glory. It also says there will be no more night and that the gates of the new city of Jerusalem will always be open to all the nations and that nothing that could possibly defile it will ever enter into it. Here it is:
"But I saw no temple in it, for the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb are its Temple. And the city had no need of the sun or of the moon to shine in it, for the glory of God illuminated it, and the Lamb its light. And the nations of those who are saved shall walk in its light, and the kings of the earth bring their glory and honor into it. Its gates shall not be shut at all by day (there shall be no night there). And they shall bring the glory and the honor of the nations into it. But there shall by no means enter it anything that defiles, or causes an abomination or a lie, but only those who are written in the Lambs Book of Life." (Revelations 21: 22-27)
4. This next verse also tells us that there will be no more curse from Adam and Eve and once again states that there will be no more night. It says that we shall see the face of at least Jesus and possibly God Himself and that we shall reign with God and Jesus forever.
"And there shall be no more curse, but the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in it, and His servants shall serve Him. They shall see His face, and His name shall be on their foreheads. And there shall be no night there: They need no lamp nor light of the sun, for the Lord God gives them light. And they shall reign forever and ever." (Revelations 22:3-5)
5. Now here are the verses about the new city of Jerusalem and what it will be like.
"Then I, John, saw the holy city, New Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband." (Revelations 21:2) "And he carried me away in the Spirit to a great and high mountain, and showed me the great city, the holy Jerusalem, descending out of heaven from God, having the glory of God. And her light was like a most precious stone, like a jasper stone, clear as crystal. And she had a great and high wall with twelve gates, and twelve angels at the gates, and names written on them, which are the names of the twelve tribes of Israel: three gates on the east, three gates on the north, three gates on the south, and three gates on the west. Now the wall of the city had twelve foundations, and on them were the names of the twelve apostles of the Lamb. And he who talked with me had a gold reed to measure the city, its gates, and its wall. And the city is laid out as a square, and its length is as great as its breadth ... And the construction of its wall was of jasper; and the city was pure gold, like clear glass. And the foundations of the wall of the city were adorned with all kinds of precious stones: the first foundation was jasper, the second sapphire, the third chalcedony, the fourth emerald, the fifth sardonyx, the sixth sardius, the seventh chrysolite, the eighth beryl, the ninth topaz, the tenth chrysoprase, the eleventh jacinth, and the twelfth amethyst. And the twelve gates were twelve pearls: each individual gate was of one pearl. And the street of the city was pure gold, like transparent glass." (Revelations 21:10-21).
Conclusion As bad as things are going to get in the future, and possibly in the near future for all of us, each Christian has to keep his eyes on the final end. We first get 1000 years of perfect peace in the Millennium Kingdom with Jesus as the sole supreme ruler of this earth, and then the final ultimate end with the creation of a brand new heaven and a brand new earth, with God the Father Himself coming down to live and dwell with all of us forever and ever.
This new earth and new heaven is going to be beyond anything that our imaginations can even begin to conjure up. The above Scripture verses only give us a partial vision and partial knowledge of what we are all going to end up with in this new environment. One of the most amazing things about the Bible is all of the knowledge and information that is contained in it telling us what is in store for all of us in the future. When you put a lot of these verses together like you would a jigsaw puzzle, the knowledge and messages come through loud and clear. God the Father is truly telling us exactly what is in store for all of us in the future so that we can all properly prepare to receive it. Ill end this series of articles on this subject with one last thought:
Things are going to get bad, and I mean bad in the coming years! The Bible is telling us exactly what is going to happen and why it is going to happen. But to each of you whose hands this series of
end times articles falls into - just remember one thing - God will win in the end - and the Millennium Kingdom and the New Heaven and New Earth will be our final reward for all of those who hold true to their faith in God and Jesus. Keep your eyes on the final and glorious end with the New Heaven and New Earth - it will help keep you from any overwhelming fears that may beset you if we start to enter into these end time events.

Add Rich Color To Your Garden With Blue Perennial Flowers
By Kathy Burns-Millyard Blue flowers are some of the most striking plants around and can add a rich splash of color to any garden. Plant them in a cluster of all blue or mix them in with other flowers for a rainbow of color. When planting flowers, it is important to remember to follow the instructions on the tag for the plant. Always buy plants that will thrive in the conditions in which you intend to grow them. A plant that loves sun won't do well in a shady area and you will only be disappointed with the results. When planning your garden, be aware of the bloom time of the flowers. Planting perennials with different bloom times near each other will insure a garden that has blooms all season long. Remember also to plan for the height of the plants, putting the taller ones in the back. Below is a list of favorite blue flowering plants that you might want to consider for your garden: Polemonuim, Blue Pearl - A compact plant with deep sky blue flowers that grows to 10". It blooms in late spring to early summer. Plant in partial shade and in well drained soil. Blue Sea Holly - This dramatic plant has a lavender blue cone like flower with long spiked petals. It grows to 30" and is a favorite for dried flower arrangements. Plant in full sun - blooms in mid to late summer. Delphinium, Butterfly Blue - Bright blue delicate flowers adorn this plant that blooms in early to mid summer. It reaches 10" tall and prefers a sunny location with rich moist soil. Campanula, Blue Carpet - Bright blue to lilac colored flowers bloom for weeks in the middle of summer. This low growing perennial grows to 4" and prefers full sun with well drained soil. Penstemon, Blue Buckle - This plant has tubular shaped blooms in blue to purple and flowers in mid summer to early fall. It grows to 15" and likes well drained soil with full or partial sun. Hydrangea, Nikko Blue - Gigantic clumps of blue flowers adorn this shrub for most of the summer. In the fall, the flowers turn a golden color. This plant is a new variety that prefers rich soil but will grow in shade, partial sun or full sun. Vinca - Medium blue flowers and glossy green leaves form a carpet that grows to about 6" tall and blooms in mid spring. This plant will grow in most soil conditions, in the shade or sun. Ajuga, Bronze Beauty - This short bushy plant has spikes of blue flowers that grows quickly. Great as a ground cover or in raised beds. It blooms in spring and prefers a shady area. Scabiosa, Butterfly Blue - A bushy perennial with lavender blue flowers that bloom from June to October. This plant likes full sun and attracts butterflies and hummingbirds. Verbena, Babylon Blue - Blue purple flowers petals adorn this plant that blooms in early spring. Great for window boxes and planters.

Montecito Real Estate from 2000 to 2005 for the First 10 Months of Each Year
By Gary Woods Theres been a lot written and said about how the numbers of Montecito Real Estate sales are off when you compare them to 2004. Since its always a good idea to stand back and get a little perspective to see where weve been I thought Id go back to 2000 and look at each subsequent year to today. Okay, so looking at Montecito Real Estate for 2000 from Jan. 1 through October 31 we see 196 sales with a median price of $1.54 million. The number of listings for the same time period was 282 with a median list price of $1.745. This means that the median sales price was about $200,000 below that of the median list price. For 2001 for the same time period sales were slightly slower with 145 properties closing escrow from 1/1 to 10/31. The median sales price was up ever so slightly to $1.565 million. The number of homes that came on the market for that time period was 335 with a median list price of $2.08. this means that the expectations of the sellers in 2001 increased but buyers restrained that enthusiasm keeping the selling prices almost flat from 00 to 01. So what happened in 2002 as far as sales were concerned? From 1/1 to 10/31 there were 183 houses that closed escrow. The median sales price at that time stayed pretty close to the 2001 level coming in at $1.72 million. The number of listings was 328 year to date for 2002 with a median list price of $2.25 million. That means from 2001 to 2002 sales and prices were increasing marginally. In Montecito Real Estate for 2003 the number of sales dipped slightly to 166 while the median sales price rose again to $1.92 million. The numbers of listings for that time period were up slightly at 339 and the median list price was about where it was in 2002 with a slight rise to $2.61 million. Moving into 2004 what happened? Well in 2004 at that time we had 175 sales with a median sales price of $2.39 million. So sales inched up from the previous year but the sales price moved up dramatically. On the listing side 312 properties came on the market and the median asking price zoomed up to $2.92 million. So both the sales and particularly the listing prices moved up. Now in 2005 where are we with Montecito Real Estate? Well sales are up by 4 from 2004 for a total of 179 and the median sales price is only slightly ahead at $2.58. The numbers of listings are off to 43 for a total of 269 and the median list price is up to $3.1. So looking back from 2000 to 2005 we had 196, 145, 183, 166 and 175 sales respectively. This is really a pretty remarkable example of stability. The median sales price from 2000 to 2005 went, $1.54, $1.565, $1.72, $2.39 to $2.58 with the big jump coming between 03 and 04. So as far as Montecito Real Estate is concerned the figures look pretty stable to me, and I certainly dont see a bubble there. Well thats it for now! http://www.Montecito Real Estate Gary Woods is a Realtor in Santa Barbara CA and he is the Trainer for the Santa Barbara Association of Realtors.

Consider designing your kitchen to reflect or personality, or to match the landscaping of your home, or even to show your playful side. Here are three ideas to get your creative juices flowing so you can design a unique and personalized outdoor kitchen for your home. 1. The Tuscan look Any design that incorporates a Tuscan look will have very earthy tones. any design with earthy tones will of course the book very well in the backyard. Typical colors to cooperate in a Tuscan design will be dark blue, red, and terra cotta. All of these colors lend themselves very well to a very rustic outdoor lock. A very fun feature of a Tuscan design would be an opened fire. This could even be used as a piece of it. Think of adding a string of light bulbs and candles and a bottle for a true Italian feel. 2. Sports If you are a sports buff you can really have fun with an outdoor kitchen. Why not have a flatscreen TV? Then you can catch all the action of your favorite game anytime you're entertaining or using your outdoor kitchen.

A French country kitchen has elaborate design with a country feel. The colors you would use in a French country design would be green, blue, gold and yellow. Include a wrought iron bistro table and stools to complete the look.

Pro-Choice: How Being Choosy with Women Will Actually Get You Better Ones
By James Brito It seemed like there was no chance this marriage could go wrong for my friend Sal. He was in love with this gal. Mary was THE one. They had only dated for 4 months, were only 20 years old, and neither had ever lived with a partner before, but still it felt meant to be. Sal had never dated much, in fact had some difficulty getting any girl to date him. But Mary had seen something in him, and that was all he needed. He wasnt going to be lonely for the rest of his life, something he had always feared. This marriage was going to last forever. He knew it. Well, thats what Steve thought he knew. But it only took 9 months before Sal and Mary bitterly ended their train-wreck of a marriage. What had seemed like a perfect union when he proposed, became a perfect disaster in less than a year. A year earlier they had talked of love, and within a year they talked of hate and bitterness. Sal couldnt quite figure out what went wrong, but to me it was immediately obvious: He went for the first girl who gave him a chance. Because he didnt want to be lonely. And he didnt think he was good enough to get anyone else. Funny thing is, like so many other people who rushed into marriage to avoid loneliness, Sal got exactly that. And when he marries again, its probably only going to be worse. Did you know that divorce rates are actually HIGHER for those in a second or third marriage than for those in their first marriage? Why is that? How can a man or woman whos already been divorced possibly want to go through another? The reason begins with choice. Or the lack thereof. A big problem for us men is not having enough choices in women. Some of this we cant control, such as if there are a disproportionate number of men to women in our area. Or if there just arent many young women in your town. But usually, the problem is self-inflicted. We just go for the first women who seems crazy enough to hook up with us, and enter into a long-term relationship with her because we fear we wont get anyone better. We doubt the power thats within us. That was the case with Sal. But that attitude isnt fair. Not to you, and definitely NOT to the woman. Think about it. If your woman went out with you just because she was afraid she wouldnt be able to find a better man, would you call that love? Hell no. Its more like desperation. And yet there are millions of men who have this desperate kind of thinking. The good news is, It doesnt have to be this way! If you decide what it is you really need in a woman, then you wont go into a relationship with a girl if she doesnt conform to what you need. If you cant stand a woman whos a neat freak, dont let a realtionship with someone whos like that last. If you like privacy and she needs to be around you every second of the day, spare BOTH of yourselves lots of heartache. The key is to know what you want, and to actually be PICKY about it. Even if youre having trouble getting women, entering into a relationship with a woman just because shes willing to date you, is a recipe for disaster. Its also the reason there are so many divorcesdivorces like my friend Sals. Relationship expert Ken Kenny puts it best: "The more a man can come from a place of choicetwo things happen, #1, the higher quality women he will attract, and #2, the more likely the relationships will last, because he wont rush into something that isnt ideal." What I love so much about that quote is its self-empowering nature. It tells us men that no matter how desperate we are, the power lies within us to get what we want. And by believing in ourselves, by being choosy, we actually will get what we want. So guys, dont just go for anyone. KNOW who you want, and even if the woman is beautiful, dont let her get away with unacceptable behavior. If your woman drives you crazy, and you cant fix the problem, then GET AWAY. Dont let the relationship decay any further. Have the courage to go for someone whos more like you, who can give you the REAL love you need. Because if you dont want to be alone, its better to be choosy and find true love, then go with the first girl you get, and find true heartbreak. Just like Sal. ********************************************************************************* James Brito, bestselling author of "How to Be Irresistible to Women" and "The Art of Impressing Women," regularly explores topics of female attraction.

Understanding Chinese Weddings
By Lesley-Ann Graham If you don't want to wear white to your wedding you will be very happy if you're marrying a Chinese fiance. Red is the color of their weddings since it symbolizes good luck. Even the guests try to have a touch of red in their accessories. Unlike in western nuptials, the date of the wedding is not just a choice by the happy couple. The chinese will check against the chinese astrological calendar to see what date is best for the couple to get married and for the good day for the groom's family to give the bride gifts. On the wedding day the homes of both families are decorated from top to bottom in red. The groom and his groomsmen begin the ceremony by proceeding to the bride's home where he must prove himself worthy of his bride by passing tests set by the bridesmaids. They can be anything, some even as silly as singing nursery rhymes. The last test is the gifts given to the girls, usually money in red envelopes. The couple and entourage then move to the bride's family home where they serve tea and then more gifts are given in the red envelopes. It is also customary for gifts of jewelry be given to the bride here. The procession moves to the home of the groom's family where the ritual is performed again and yes, more gifts and money is given. Since it is considered bad luck for the bride's feet to touch the ground before they are married, she is carried all the way with a red umbrella over her head to bring more good luck. This is not even half of what traditions go into a chinese wedding. Suffice is to say that the rituals are very important to these people and stamina is something that the groom must build up before the wedding.
