Revelation 21: 2-4 — from BibleGateway.com
“I saw the Holy City, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride beautifully dressed for her husband. And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, “Look! God’s dwelling place is now among the people, and he will dwell with them. They will be his people, and God himself will be with them and be their God. ‘He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death’ or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away.””
From DSC:
(Regarding the recent end of the world prediction, scripture never mentions a specific day. Instead, Christ states that only the Father knows when that time will be.)

Anyway, my dad sings a song that’s a beautiful song…in it, one of the parts that I always enjoyed listening to were the lines that said:
He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death’ or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away.
LORD knows we have enough pain these days. The older I get, the more I believe that living in this world is tough — no matter who you are or what your circumstances may be. I look forward to the new Jerusalem — thanks be to God for His mercy and for paying the debt that I never could have paid!
…so Christ was sacrificed once to take away the sins of many; and he will appear a second time, not to bear sin, but to bring salvation to those who are waiting for him.
