REVELATION ITS GRAND CLIMAX AT HAND!/Chapter Forty Three - The Resplendent City - Conclusion

 The symbolic city has a huge wall. In anciet times, city walls were built for security to keep out enemies.  New Jerusalem's "great and lofty wall" shows that she is spirituallt secure.  No enemy of righteousness, no one unclean or dishonest, will ever be able to gain enterance.  (Revelation 21:27) But for those allowed in, entering this beauteous city is like entering  Paradise. (Revelation 2:7) After Adam's expulsion, cherubs  were posted in front of the original Paradise to keep out unclean humans. (Genesis 3:24) Similarly, angels are posted at each entrance of the holy city Jerusalem to ensure spiritual security of the city. Indeed, throughout the last days, angels have been  guarding the congregation of anointed Christians, which becomes New Jerusalem  from Babylonish contamination. - MATTHEW 13:41.
