Acts 8:39-40 “Now when they came up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord caught Philip away, so that the eunuch saw him no more; and he went on his way rejoicing. (40) But Philip was found at Azotus. And passing through, he preached in all the cities till he came to Caesarea.”
John 6:21 “Then they willingly received Him into the boat, and immediately the boat was at the land where they were going.”
And so, the question then arises as to how it will be logistically possible, for twenty-five billion people to gather to the city of Jerusalem every seven days, and then return to their homes at the end of the Sabbath, to continue with their daily lives? For don’t forget, that the size of the new earth will be at least the size of the planet Jupiter. And so as the population of the earth grows, eventually people will be living vast distances away from the city of Jerusalem. The answer to that question lies in the above quoted passages of scripture. For in these passages, we see the Spirit of God supernaturally transporting Philip from one location on the earth to another location, in the blink of an eye. And we see the Spirit of God supernaturally transporting Jesus, His disciples and the boat they were in, from the middle of the lake to the shore, in the blink of an eye. These two passages are not the only accounts where God did this, for there are numerous other passages in the bible, where God did exactly the same thing. And so, we see that God will transport all His children by His Spirit, to the city and back to their homes, every Sabbath, New Moon and Feast.
