If The Stars Could Only Speak

A journey through poetry to connect with nature and awaken to our greatest dreams.

Compiling a book is more like combining all the spices you’ve and bringing out a unique dish. Starting from the moment I thought to compile a book and finally getting it published, the journey was demanding yet full of new experiences, uncertainty and a strong mindset of ‘not to give up’. Connecting all the writers across India in one platform is possible due to Unikfeel Publication Team and Prashant Srivastav, national chief of Unikfeel for mentoring me throughout the process.I am thankful to all the co-authors for trusting me and coming together to make this happen. I would thank my parents for believing me and all the people who directly or indirectly supported me. Every page of this book has some emotions and uniqueness and worth. So don’t just skip the pages, READ !

In the study of Christian eschatological thought, virtually no attention has been given to past interpretations of the biblical phrase the new heavens and earth. John Duff uncovers the interpretations of this phrase that were extant in seventeenth-century England. These interpretations fall into two basic camps—those that understood the phrase metaphorically and those that understood the phrase literally.Some English divines believed the new heavens and earth referred to the new age of the gospel that commenced in the first century CE. At that time, God flung open the doors of salvation to Gentiles while at the same time bringing judgment to the Jewish nation for its failure to recognize and embrace Jesus as Messiah. This epic transition was fittingly described as a new heavens and earth.A second group of English interpreters believed the phrase stood for a yet future time when the political and religious circumstances of the world would change for the betterment of the church for one thousand years. The new heavens and earth stood for a future millennium in which Christ would establish his reign over the world prior to the day of resurrection and final judgment. Theologians who accepted a literal understanding believed the new heavens and earth described the renovation of the physical creation at the final judgment. Among this group, differences of opinion existed with respect to how much of the world would need cleansing, what creatures would be restored and of what use would a renovated world serve. The idea that the earth, and not heaven, would be the final abode of the saints emerged among a few obscure writers.
