Some think that because Jesus said in John 18, "My kingdom is not of this world" there will be no rule of God on Earth, but Randy Alcorn shows from many Scriptures that God's rule is clearly intended to extend to this world. Though at the time of Jesus' first coming his kingdom was first a spiritual kingdom meant to save souls, Jesus will rule on the earth. This video clip was excerpted from Randy's Eternity 101 DVD class.

I believe the New Jerusalem is right now in the present (intermediary) Heaven because of my understanding of Revelation 10.

A recent commenter on my blog asked, After reading of Jesus' resurrection, and how He showed the disciples His scars on His hands as proof of who He was, my children asked if we'll have our scars in Heaven, too. What do you think?
