    Ze.13:1 "The fountain"

    "In that day there shall be a fountain opened to the house of David and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem for sin and for uncleanness".

    About this fountain we have the authority of the Spirit. "And the Spirit and the bride say, Come. And let him that heareth say, Come. And let him that is athirst come. And whosoever will, let him take the water of life freely."(Re.22:17). This is addressed to the House of David so it references Jesus Christ who in his humanity came out of the loins of the king; and Jerusalem on the earth, which is a mixed race.

    This fountain is new and it references the new heaven and new earth. (Re.22:1). This raises the question what is the purpose for the fountain? It is for sin and uncleanness of those which were left behind. The verse 'saved nations' in Re.21:24 need to be addressed. They were blind to have refused to hear the word of God. "And I will bring the blind by a way that they knew not; I will lead them in paths that they have not known: I will make darkness light before them, and crooked things straight. These things will I do unto them, and not forsake them." (Is.42:16). In the Fellowship of God with Man we find the bride already has been installed in the holy city of God. That is on the word of God and in that day God may be all in all. So God as he says to Moses, "For he saith to Moses, I will have mercy on whom I will have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I will have compassion."(Ro.9:15). The same word sent out of the mouth of God shall accomplish and these are conditional as stated in Re.22:17. Firstly, 'whosoever will' and take the water of life freely. For those who reject, there is death and hell. As with everlasting punishment lake of fire shall keep on burning. "This is the second death./And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire."(Re.20:14-15)
