12. What will be our greatest joy on the new earth?

Now, we “see in a mirror, dimly, but then face to face” (1 Corinthians 13:12). On earth we have read about Jesus, prayed to Him, and sung His praises—all through faith in what we cannot now see. But on the new earth, Jesus’ promise “That where I am there you may be also” (John 14:3) will find eternal fulfillment.JTL28 14.1

Every day in the new earth we will understand in a deeper way how much the Father, Son and Holy Spirit love us, and the significance of Jesus’ sacrifice on Calvary. We will partner with Jesus Himself to witness to unfallen worlds about His incredible love. As we come together with our friends and the celestial angels to worship God Sabbath by Sabbath, surely, we will cry out with joy, “Home at last!”JTL28 14.2
