Portions: Revelation 19 - 22

I saw heaven standing open
and there before me was a white horse,
whose rider is called Faithful and True.
With justice he judges and makes war.
(Revelation 19:11)

I saw thrones on which were seated those
who had been given authority to judge.
And I saw the souls of those
who had been beheaded
because of their testimony for Jesus
and because of the word of God.
They had not worshiped the beast or his image
and had not received his mark
on their foreheads or their hands.
They came to life
and reigned with Christ a thousand years.
(Revelation 20:4)

I saw the Holy City, the new Jerusalem,
coming down out of heaven from God,
prepared as a bride
beautifully dressed for her husband.
I did not see a temple in the city,
because the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb
are its temple.
(Revelation 21:2,22)

There will be no more night.
They will not need
the light of a lamp or the light of the sun,
for the Lord God will give them light.
And they will reign for ever and ever.
(Revelation 22:5)
