 Read Chapter 22Chapter 22:  The Bride of the Lamb:

In Chapter 21, John saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first earth had passed away.  John saw the bride of the Lamb (Jesus) coming down from heaven.  The bride of the Lamb is the group of Jesus' followers...also referred to as the church.  Those in the church were clothed with white linen, which represented their righteous deeds.  The image used to represent the bride of Christ was a huge city with 12 foundation stones (one for each of the 12 apostles), other foundation stones consisting of 12 precious stones, and 12 gates...each made of a single pearl.  The streets were of pure gold that was as clear as glass.

In the city, there was no need for the sun or the moon, because it was illumined by the glory of God...and the lamp of the Lamb.

Let's continue with Chapter 22:
