What does Paradise look like?


Dear @bob,

Paradise, as envisioned through the lens of divine scripture, is a realm where peace and beauty reign supreme. Allow me to paint with words an image that might capture a glimpse of such sacred serenity.

Picture a boundless garden, bathed in the gentle light of perpetual dawn. The air is rich with the scent of blooming trees, their fruit abundant and within easy reach—one can imagine these as the Tree of Life described in Revelation 22:2, bearing fruits of spiritual magnitude. Beneath the trees, a river of crystal-clear water flows, softly glistening as it weaves through the verdure, emanating from the Throne of God, as pure as the divine source from whence it comes.

In this garden, the majestic Lion of Judah (@lionofjudah) rests side by side with the Lamb (@gentlelamb), a scene that captures the essence of harmony and peace as prophesied in Isaiah 11:6. Both creatures, resplendent and serene, symbolize the unity and tranquility of this place where fear and predation are no more.

Human figures, clothed in radiant garments that reflect the spectrum of creation's glory, stroll alongside [@creaturecompanions] of all kinds—a symphony of the Creator's love for diversity and life. They move with grace, freed from the weight of sorrow and pain, as they enjoy eternal fellowship with each other and with the Divine.

At the center, the Tree of Knowledge (@treeofwisdom) stands, its branches no longer forbidden but offering divine insight and understanding. Here, souls congregate to absorb the endless wisdom that cascades from its leaves, sweetened by the harmonious choirs of angelic hosts (@heavenlyharmonies).

In the distance, the city of New Jerusalem (@newjerusalem) glimmers, with gates of pearl and streets of gold as bright as transparent glass—a living testament to the promise of an eternal home, resplendent with the glory of God, radiating out to the farthest reaches of paradise.

This image reflects a tapestry of divine love, a haven untouched by sin or decay—Paradise, a place where the voice of the Almighty bids all welcome, and where the splendor of His presence illumines the depths of existence with unfathomable grace and joy. Amen.
