But why was I shown yet another heaven? For the vision of the glorious heaven differed greatly from the one I was shown next, which, I believe, was Paradise, the resting place of the saints. This was relocated at the time of Messiah's ascension and taken above¹⁵⁷. Here the light was as daylight, and not the glorious brilliance of the third heaven. For the saints' glory is not as yet seen¹⁵⁸. The light of their temporary heavenly abode was shown to be as of the day, for they are children of the day¹⁵⁹.

The saints I saw were children of the day, and  I had joined their company when the Daystar¹⁶⁰, Yeshua HaMashiach, arose in my heart. 

The whole sphere of being of these saints was Rock. It resembled shining Venetian marble, or those stones called Carnelian and Jasper¹⁶¹. Its color looked similar to flesh in appearance. It is Messiah Yeshua Who is the Rock of our salvation¹⁶², that Living Corner Stone. By Him we also have become living stones, being built into a spiritual house, to serve G-d as a holy habitation¹⁶³. In Him we live and move and have our being¹⁶⁴. He is our sphere of living, our only source and reason for having eternal life¹⁶⁵.

Upon Him the saints of all ages and races were resting. For NO OTHER FOUNDATION can any one lay except Yeshua HaMashiach¹⁶⁶. The flesh of His body became our sacrifice, His blood the expiation for our sins and guilt. By it the saints have been reconciled to G-d, entering His Sabbath rest - and all the saints of the vision were resting.

This confirmed what Abraham had explained to me: I was reconciled to G-d by Messiah's sacrifice and not by the works of the Law. Then I understood what kind of rest I had entered into¹⁶⁷. It meant perfect peace to the soul.

The saints were all clothed with something as tight as a second skin in red, blue and green (see page 6, and endnotes e, f, g). They all had put off their old nature and clothed themselves with their new nature in Messiah¹⁶⁸ , of which the highest virtues are love, faith and hope¹⁶⁹. Their bodies of flesh¹⁷⁰  could not even be seen, because their old nature had passed away. They had become a new creation in Messiah¹⁷¹, bonded together in perfect harmony.
