The angel showed me a river filled with the water of life, as clear as crystal. It was flowing from the throne of God and the lamb. Between the street of the city and the river there was a tree of life visible from both sides.  It produced 12 kinds of fruit.  Each month had its own fruit. The leaves of the tree will heal the nations. There will no longer be any curse.  The throne of God and the lamb will be in the city.  His servants will worship him and see his face.  His name will be on their foreheads. There will be no more night, and they will not need any light from lamps or the sun because the Lord God will shine on them.  They will rule as kings forever and ever.

14 "Blessed are those who wash their robes so that they may have the right to the tree of life and may go through the gates into the city. 15 Outside are dogs, sorcerers, sexual sinners, murderers, idolaters, and all who lie in what they say and what they do."

18 I warn everyone who hears the words of the prophecy in this book: If anyone adds anything to this, God will strike him with the plagues that are written in this book. 19 If anyone takes away any words from this book of prophecy, God will take away his portion of the tree of life and the holy city that are described in this book.

(Revelation 22:1-5, 14-15, 18-19 -- GW)
