We have now come...

We are come to Mount Sion
a spiritual place upon which the light always shines.

We are come unto the city of the living God,
a city unlike any of human origin
wherein dwells crime and corruption
but truly a city of God
wherein dwells righteousness . nothing unclean can enter.

We have not come to a place desolate, remote, and far removed
but to one inhabited by an innumerable company of angels
and the saints of the Most High
where once we were not a people
now we are his people, the community of the redeemed

We have come to the grandest assemblage of living beings
that anyone could possibly imagine, no
beyond all possible imaginings
in this finite realm

And to the church of the firstborn
not a physical structure
but a chosen people washed in the blood of the Lamb

Finally, we are come to God the Judge of all men
The Fair and Gracious One
The Merciful
The Beautiful
The Almighty
And to those who have come before and passed through- triumphant


But ye are come unto mount Sion, and unto the city of the living God, the heavenly Jerusalem, and to an innumerable company of angels,
To the general assembly and church of the firstborn, which are written in heaven, and to God the Judge of all, and to the spirits of just men made perfect,And to Jesus the mediator of the new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling, that speaketh better things that that of Abel.
Hebrews 12.22-24
