1F To live out and work out the New Jerusalem to build up Zion as the reality of the Body of Christ, we must partake of God the Father in His divine nature, typified by the gold as the base of the city—2 Pet. 1:4; Rev. 21:21b:
21 The one street of pure gold signifies that when we live and work according to the divine life flowing in the divine nature, we never "get lost," and we are pure, simple, and uncomplicated—22:1; 2 Cor. 11:2-3.
32 The divine nature is what God is; we must exercise our spirit to enjoy God as Spirit (the nature of God's person), and we must remain in the divine fellowship to enjoy God as love (the nature of God's essence) and as light (the nature of God's expression)—John 4:24; 1 John 4:8; 1:5, 3.
