Revelation 21:21 (c) This type represents the Lord JESUS Himself, who is the way to Heaven, and the way to GOD. Note that the word is in the singular and not plural. The gold represents the beauty of CHRIST, the purity of CHRIST, and the value of CHRIST. That which men almost worship down here, end constantly seek after, and which is not permanent, may well become insignificant in our sight while CHRIST JESUS becomes supreme and paramount.
