False prophet (2:2) Twelve true apostles 21:14

False Jews (2:9; 3:9) The names of the tribes of the true Israel 21:12

Christians dwell where Satan’s throne is (2:13)

Christians dwell where God’s throne is (22:1)

Some in the church are dead (3:1) All in the new Jerusalem are written in the Lamb ‘s book of life (21:27)

The church is faltering, temporal lampstand (1:20; 2:5)

God and the Lamb are the eternal lamps (21:23-24; 22:5)

The church is filled with idolatrous impurities (2:12-15, 20) and liars (2:9; 3:9)

There will be only purity and truth in the new creation (21:8, 27)

Christians face persecution, hoping in God’s promises to overcomers (2:8-10, 13)

In the new creation they reign, having inherited these promises (2:7=22:2; 2:17=22:4; 3:5=21:27; 3:12=21:10 and 22:4; 3:21=22:1 and 22:5)
