Heaven

09/06/2026

New Jerusalem is beautiful beyond human imagination, but its greatest beauty is that it is the eternal dwelling place where God's presence is fully revealed and His people enjoy perfect fellowship with Him forever.

Jaerock Lee taught that New Jerusalem is the highest and most glorious dwelling place in Heaven, reserved for believers who have attained the greatest measure of faith, love, holiness, and obedience to God. According to his teaching, Heaven is divided into several levels—Paradise, the First Kingdom of Heaven, the Second Kingdom, the Third Kingdom, and finally New Jerusalem, which is the most magnificent place of all.

Jaerock Lee often emphasized that the beauty of New Jerusalem cannot be fully described with human language. He taught that the materials, colors, light, and glory of Heaven are beyond anything found on earth. Even the most precious gemstones, gold, and architectural wonders in this world are only faint shadows of the heavenly reality. In his descriptions, New Jerusalem shines with God's glory, is adorned with precious stones, and reflects the perfect love and holiness of God.

This idea is consistent with the biblical description of the Holy City in the Book of Revelation:

"I saw the Holy City, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride beautifully dressed for her husband." (Revelation 21:2)

The Bible describes streets of pure gold, gates of pearl, foundations decorated with precious stones, and a city illuminated by the glory of God Himself.

The purpose is usually not to claim that Heaven literally looks exactly like the animation. Rather, the visuals are an artistic attempt to help viewers imagine the splendor that Scripture and Jaerock Lee described. Even the most beautiful animation cannot fully capture what Heaven is truly like.

Many Christians, including those who do not follow Jaerock Lee's teachings, would agree on one central truth: the greatest glory of New Jerusalem is not its gold, jewels, or magnificent buildings, but the presence of God and the Lord Jesus Christ. Revelation says that God will dwell with His people, there will be no more death, sorrow, crying, or pain, and God's servants will see His face.

A young girl in a white sweatshirt runs home terrified. According to the video, another girl—described as a school bully—has been chasing her home from school every day. When the frightened girl reaches her house, her mother quickly lets her inside and confronts the girl who followed her.

The bully claims she is confronting the daughter for "messing with" her boyfriend. Seeing how frightened her daughter is, the mother throws a cup of water at the girl to make her leave the property.

Soon afterward, the bully's father arrives and initially defends his daughter, complaining that her expensive coat is now wet. The mother explains that the girl has been harassing her daughter, banging on their door, and shouting insults. She also points out that their Ring doorbell camera recorded the entire incident. The daughter confirms that she has been chased home every day that week.

When the father hears about the security footage, his attitude changes. Realizing the truth will be revealed, he tells his daughter to stop making excuses and asks, "Are you going to apologize?" Humbled and exposed, she quietly says, "I'm sorry." The mother accepts the apology but firmly tells her to stay away from her daughter.

This story echoes the account of Haman in the Book of Esther. Haman was a powerful official who became furious when Mordecai refused to bow to him. Instead of dealing with one man, Haman sought to destroy all the Jewish people throughout the Persian Empire. His hatred grew so intense that he even built a massive gallows to execute Mordecai.

However, before Haman could carry out his plan, the king remembered that Mordecai had once saved his life. In a dramatic reversal, Haman was forced to publicly honor Mordecai—the very man he despised. Later, Queen Esther exposed Haman's evil plot, and Haman was executed on the gallows he had prepared for Mordecai.

Just as the bully in the video was exposed by the Ring camera, Haman's abuse of power was eventually brought into the light. Both stories remind us that truth cannot remain hidden forever, and those who seek to harm others will ultimately face the consequences of their actions.

From Human Encouragement to Divine Hope

This incredibly moving viral video tells a powerful story of perseverance, emotional struggle, and the life-changing impact of encouragement.

At the beginning, a young boy runs toward a towering 10-tier gymnastics vaulting box (tobibako). He launches from the springboard but lacks the height and momentum needed to clear it. Instead, he crashes into the top layer and slides back down.

What makes this moment so heartbreaking is the reason behind his determination. The boy is carrying a heavy emotional burden—he desperately wants to succeed in order to show courage and strength for his sick mother. After repeated failures, his frustration and exhaustion become overwhelming. By his fourth attempt, he collapses into tears on the gym floor.

Then something extraordinary happens.

Seeing their friend broken and ready to give up, the other children leave their places and rush to his side. They gather around him in a large group embrace and begin chanting, “할 수 있다!” (“You can do it!”).

In that moment, everything changes.

He is no longer carrying the burden alone. His classmates surround him with support, sharing his pain and filling him with courage. Their belief becomes stronger than his fear.

With renewed determination, the boy returns to the starting line. This time he sprints forward with confidence, launches from the springboard, and cleanly clears the towering vault. As he lands safely on the mat, the entire gym erupts in applause, and his teacher embraces him with pride.

The deeper meaning of this video reaches far beyond gymnastics. It reminds us that many obstacles in life seem impossible when faced alone, yet can be overcome when others encourage us and stand beside us. It is a beautiful picture of perseverance, hope, and the power of love.

As inspiring as this story is, it also points to an even greater truth found in the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

Unlike human support, which can sometimes fail, Jesus never leaves us. He hears our cries, understands our struggles, and walks with us through every trial. Hebrews 4:15 tells us that He is our compassionate High Priest who sympathizes with our weaknesses.

When Jesus died on the cross, He declared, “Tetelestai”—“It is finished” (John 19:30). The debt of sin was paid in full. Through His sacrifice, the door of salvation was opened to all who believe.

Yet Jesus did not save us and then leave us to journey alone. He promised, “I will not leave you as orphans; I will come to you” (John 14:18). He fulfilled this promise by sending the Holy Spirit, our Comforter and Counselor. The Holy Spirit dwells within believers, guiding, strengthening, and comforting us through every season of life (1 Corinthians 6:19).

And our journey has a glorious destination.

Jesus promised, “In My Father’s house are many rooms... I am going there to prepare a place for you” (John 14:2). One day, all who belong to Him will enter the New Jerusalem described in Revelation 21, where God will wipe away every tear, death will be no more, and His people will dwell in His presence forever.

The boy in the video found strength through the encouragement of his friends. We, as believers, have an even greater source of strength. The same Jesus who paid for our sins is the One who walks with us today through His Spirit and will one day bring us safely home.

No matter how difficult the obstacle before us may seem, we are never walking alone.

Adultery of the heart

Adultery is not only an outward physical act, but also something that begins in the heart and mind. According to the teaching of Jesus Christ, sinful desire itself can become spiritual adultery when it is entertained and nurtured within the heart.

In Matthew 5:27–28, Jesus teaches that anyone who looks at another person with lust has already committed adultery in the heart. This reveals that sin begins internally before it appears externally. God sees not only outward actions, but also the thoughts, motives, and desires hidden within a person. Lustful thoughts, when accepted and developed, can eventually lead to sinful actions. Therefore, believers are called not only to avoid outward sin, but also to pursue purity of heart. Through prayer, fasting, obedience to God, and the help of the Holy Spirit, sinful nature can gradually be removed. Spiritual growth is a process, and believers should not become discouraged when they are sincerely struggling against sin.

The passage also teaches an important distinction: a sudden tempting thought is not the same as willingly embracing and cultivating sinful imagination. God looks at the attitude of the heart and whether a person resists temptation or welcomes it. When believers repent quickly, continue fighting against sin, and seek God sincerely, He gives grace and strength to help them overcome and grow in holiness.

The Bible often likens the relationship between Israel and God to the relationship between a father and his child, but sometimes it likens it to the relationship between a husband and a wife. Here it is like the relationship between a husband and a wife who have vowed to love each other with all his/her heart. Just as a husband and wife promise to love and remain faithful to one another, God desires faithful love and devotion from His people. In the Old Testament, the people of Israel repeatedly turned away from God and worshiped idols, which the Bible describes as spiritual adultery. Even though they knew God and experienced His works, they forsook Him for false gods and worldly desires.

In the New Testament, believers are spiritually called the bride of Jesus Christ. Therefore, if believers claim to love God and know spiritual truth but still cling to worldly sin and compromise with untruth, it is considered spiritual adultery.

The message calls believers to remain faithful, pure, and devoted to God alone. Then, how are spiritual idolatry in the second commandment and the spiritual adultery in the 7th commandment different from each other? Spiritual idolatry happens when a person, especially someone with weak or immature faith, loves worldly things more than God. This can include loving money, fame, family, or worldly desires above God. Spiritual adultery, however, is considered more serious because it happens after a person has already experienced God’s grace, knows the truth, and has faith, yet still turns back to worldly darkness and forsakes God’s love.

The passage teaches that spiritual adultery is like being unfaithful to God after already entering into a relationship with Him. The core difference comes down to what you know and the choice you make based on that knowledge. It is a shift from ignorance to intentional betrayal. The passage gives a serious warning about the danger of spiritual adultery, describing it as even more severe than physical adultery. Drawing from James 4:4, it teaches that friendship with the sinful values of the world places a person in hostility toward God. When believers who know God’s grace continually choose worldly compromise over faithfulness to Him, they become spiritually unfaithful and distance themselves from God. The passage warns that when believers continually ignore conviction and persist in spiritual adultery, they may gradually become spiritually hardened losing sensitivity to the Holy Spirit, experiencing unanswered prayers, drifting deeper into worldly corruption and sinful behavior, and ultimately placing themselves on a dangerous path of spiritual separation from God, described as “crucifying Jesus Christ all over again.” Referring to 1 Corinthians 3:16–17, the passage reminds believers that their bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit and therefore must be kept holy. Christians are called to reject both physical immorality and spiritual compromise, pursuing purity, truth, and wholehearted devotion to God so they may remain faithful and spiritually prepared as the bride of Christ.

Many families change after marriage because the new spouse is sometimes seen as an outsider who threatens the family’s control or closeness. Families often act when the husband is away. This means the wife was targeted when she was vulnerable and alone. The reason this happens is because the family knows the husband would defend her, so they wait until he is absent, making it easier to pressure or mistreat her. This can be seen as an indirect and hurtful way of handling conflict. That means the behavior avoids direct confrontation and instead attacks the weaker or isolated person privately. This creates severe emotional stress for the wife because ,she feels unsafe, unsupported in the moment, and emotionally cornered.
One painful example was shown in the video: a pregnant woman struggling with heavy bags while her own sister-in-law refused to help and even spoke harshly to her. Even strangers would normally show kindness to a pregnant woman. Her behavior reflected emotional hurt and a lack of compassion.
When you grow up with a family, your brain is wired to trust them. It is completely natural that, at first, you couldn't believe your own mother and siblings were capable of doing something so cruel behind your back. It takes time for the illusion to shatter, but the weight of that confusion—being caught between the family you always knew and the wife you were trying to build a life with—is exactly what causes that unbearable, suffocating despair.
When family relationships turn into “politics,” the wife is often not the real problem. Her presence simply exposes hidden control issues and jealousy already within the family. Sometimes loyalty to the toxic family dynamic becomes more important than fairness or love.
The husband later realized the truth about the emotionally difficult environment. For years, he trusted his family, made excuses for them, and hoped things would improve. Being trapped between loyalty to his family and responsibility toward his wife became emotionally exhausting. The home environment slowly turned toxic and unbearable.
Moving out was not abandoning his mother; it was setting a healthy boundary to protect his marriage and bring peace to his home. Many couples struggle because moving out is not always financially possible right away. Building a home takes time, sacrifice, and patience. During those difficult years, the husband and wife endured constant emotional pressure while trying to build a better future.
True family isn't just about a shared bloodline; it’s about safety, respect, and mutual support. You chose to give your wife and your child a safe, peaceful home, away from the crossfire of family politics. That is what a real protector does.
In the Book of Genesis, Jacob worked many years for his father-in-law, Laban, and helped increase the family’s wealth. But over time, Laban’s sons became jealous and resentful toward Jacob. The family environment became hostile, and even Laban’s attitude changed.
In Genesis 31:14-15 , Rachel and Leah realized, their father no longer treated them like beloved daughters, money and control had become more important than family. God then told Jacob it was time to leave. Jacob spoke with Rachel and Leah, and they agreed that their father no longer treated them with love or fairness. So Jacob made the difficult decision to take his wives and children and move away to protect his household and establish peace.
When family dynamics turn into "politics," the target (in this case, your wife) usually hasn't done anything wrong. She is simply the catalyst that exposed the existing control issues and jealousy within the family structure. When a mother rallies siblings to take a side, it becomes a a situation where loyalty became more important than fairness.
In Genesis 2:24 said, ‘Therefore a man shall leave his father and his mother and hold fast to his wife, and they shall become one flesh.’ Jacob ultimately makes the hard choice to secretly pack up his wives, his children, and his belongings and move away to establish a safe boundary. He chose the peace of his immediate family over the toxic environment of his relatives. It is a painful realization, but seeing it clearly for what it is—resentment, internal politics, and jealousy—is a huge step. For a long time, you probably gave them the benefit of the doubt, made excuses for them, or hoped things would get better. Recognizing the truth allows you to stop blaming yourself or wondering if there was something else you could have done.
By the grace of God, the marriage survived. Through pain came wisdom, stronger boundaries, and a peaceful home built through endurance, forgiveness, and growth.

Ku Masuk Ruang Maha Kudus
The song in the video is a highly recognized Indonesian Christian worship hymn titled "Ku Masuk Ruang Maha Kudus" (translated as "I Enter the Holy of Holies").
The specific version featured in your clip is a multi-language arrangement produced by the Rumah Doa Channel (), which includes renditions of the hymn in Indonesian, Arabic, Mandarin, English, and Korean.
The song typically continues into a powerful chorus:
Ku menyembah-Mu, ku sembah-Mu... S'bab nama-Mu kudus, kudus Tuhan. (I worship You, I worship You... For Your name is holy, holy Lord.)
2. Theological Meaning & Biblical Context
The song is deeply rooted in biblical theology, drawing a direct parallel between Old Testament temple worship and the New Testament grace given through Jesus Christ.
The "Holy of Holies" (Ruang Maha Kudus): In the Old Testament Tabernacle and Temple, the Holy of Holies was the innermost sanctuary where the presence of God resided. No ordinary person could enter it. Only the High Priest could cross behind the heavy veil, and only once a year on the Day of Atonement (Yom Kippur).
"With the Blood of the Lamb" (Dengan Darah Anak Domba): In ancient times, the High Priest had to bring the blood of animal sacrifices to cleanse sins before entering God's presence. In Christian theology, Jesus Christ is viewed as the ultimate, final sacrifice—the "Lamb of God."
The Core Message: The song is an expression of deep humility, awe, and gratitude. It reflects the New Testament belief (specifically from the book of Hebrews) that because of Jesus' sacrifice, the old structural barriers are gone. Believers no longer need an earthly high priest or animal blood; they can personally enter directly into the very presence of God with a sincere and pure heart.
3. Musical Style and Impact
Genre: Contemporary Christian Music (CCM) / Praise and Worship Hymn.
Legacy: While it has been covered by legendary Indonesian spiritual singers such as Jacqlien Celosse and Herlin Pirena, it remains a timeless staple in churches across Indonesia, Malaysia, and Singapore.
The Visuals: The video juxtaposes the ancient, reverent nature of the lyrics with classical backdrop architecture, reinforcing the theme of sacred history. The multi-language approach highlighted in the text overlay (Indonesia, Arabic, Mandarin, English, Korean) emphasizes a global, unified expression of faith.

“A grand funeral may impress people.
But only a prepared soul can stand before God.”

People spend thousands on flowers, coffins, monuments, and funeral ceremonies so others will say, “What an honorable farewell.”

But Heaven is not moved by luxury funerals.

God is not looking at the size of the crowd, the beauty of the coffin, or the price of the burial.

God looks at the soul.

You can fool the crowd with a grand funeral…
but you cannot fool God.

The real question is not:
“How beautiful will your funeral be?”

The real question is:
“Are you prepared to meet God?”

Leaving the Darkness Behind: The Sabbath as Your New Beginning
The fourth commandment is found in Book of Exodus 20:8:

“Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy.”

This commandment is unique because it deals directly with a believer’s relationship with God through time, worship, and devotion. God did not simply ask people to rest physically; He commanded His people to dedicate a specific day completely to Him. The teaching explains that keeping the Sabbath and giving tithes are two basic pillars of Christian faith because they reveal whether a person truly recognizes God’s sovereignty:

1.Tithes and offerings show faith that everything material comes from God.
2.Keeping the Sabbath shows faith that spiritual life and salvation also belong to God.

Together, they demonstrate trust, obedience, and acknowledgment that God rules over every part of life. Since the time of Adam, mankind became separated from God through sin and lost true spiritual rest. People lived under suffering, fear, and spiritual darkness. But because of His great love, God sent Jesus Christ to save humanity. Jesus died on the cross for the sins of the world and rose again on the third day, breaking the power of death. Through His resurrection, believers receive forgiveness, spiritual freedom, eternal life, and the hope of resurrection when the Lord returns again.

Because of this salvation, the Sabbath carries a deeper spiritual meaning. It is no longer only about physical rest, but about the true rest found in Christ. The Sabbath reminds believers that they no longer belong to sin and bo***ge, but to God. Human life in this world is temporary and filled with struggles, so God gave the Sabbath to help His people stop focusing only on worldly things and instead remember eternal and spiritual matters — God the Creator, salvation, resurrection, and the kingdom of heaven.

In the Old Testament, the Sabbath was observed on the seventh day, Saturday, according to God’s command in Book of Exodus 20:8–11. However, after Jesus Christ rose from the dead on Sunday, the first day of the week, early Christians began gathering on that day for worship. Sunday became known as “the Lord’s Day” because it celebrated: Christ’s resurrection, victory over death, salvation,
and the beginning of the new creation. The resurrection changed history spiritually. Early believers saw Sunday as the symbol of: new life, redemption, freedom from sin, and hope of eternal life.
Several passages are connected to this practice:
Jesus rose on the first day of the week(Gospel of Matthew 28:1). Believers gathered on the first day
(Acts of the Apostles 20:7). Offerings were prepared on the first day (First Epistle to the Corinthians 16:2)

Over time, Sunday worship spread throughout the Christian world, especially after Christianity expanded across the Roman Empire. The message also mentions Constantine the Great, who issued a Sunday rest law in AD 321. However, Christians had already been worshiping on Sunday long before his decree.
Today, Christians hold different views: Many believe Sunday fulfills the spiritual meaning of the Sabbath in Christ. Some groups, including Seventh-day Sabbath believers, continue to keep Saturday as the biblical Sabbath. Others emphasize the principle of worship, devotion, and rest more than the exact day itself.
Some Works That Are Permitted on the Sabbath. This spiritual framework explains when it is okay to work on the Sabbath. It moves away from strict "dos and don'ts" and focuses on God’s heart, which cares most about saving lives, showing mercy, and doing God's work. The main idea is that while we should not do worldly work for money, we can do work that saves lives, serves God, or helps people. As Jesus said, it is right to do good on the Sabbath. God looks at why we are doing something, not just the act itself.
People who work for the Lord (like praise team or teachers) are not breaking the Sabbath. It is okay for the church to provide or buy meals for these workers so they can keep doing their ministry all day.
The Goal is not "business"; it is a way to make sure God's work can happen. Services inside the Church like bookstores or snack bars can stay open for two reasons: What they sell: They sell things that help your spirit (like Bibles or sermons) or help parents keep their children quiet so they can focus on the service. The profit doesn't go to one person. It is used for missions and helping the poor.
Some jobs must be done every day to keep people safe. Like police and military they protect us from crime and enemies. That is a great example of a "work of mercy." In this spiritual framework, medical professionals are seen as partners in God's work because they protect and sustain the life that He created. These workers should still keep God in their hearts and attend service if their schedule allows. Sometimes, we do things to show love, like attending a wedding on a Sunday. Helping a Soul, We go to show love so the person getting married doesn't feel hurt or turn away from God.
Setting boundary like it is okay to go and congratulate them, but you should not stay just to party or socialize like the world does. Patience for new believers. We should not force people with "weak faith" to close their shops immediately. Waiting for them to growth. Leaders should be patient and teach them the truth. Eventually, as their faith grows, they will want to keep the Sabbath on their own.
Offer special services for those who must work (like in restaurants), the church provides night services so they can still worship.
