One of the main duties of every Christian is to constantly encourage and persuade other people about the rewards of eternity. Persuasion means to captivate the heart of a person for a cause. We are supposed to exhort and provoke each other unto good works even as the day of Jesus' return approaches. This is such a crucial matter because we can miss the rewards and incur discipline, if we do not keep it in sight.
'And let us consider one another in order to stir up love and good works, not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as is the manner of some, but exhorting one another, and so much the more as you see the Day approaching. (Hebrews 10: 24- 25)
A simple mention of heaven, as the place from which the New Jerusalem comes from, is not enough. We need to persuade them about the 'milk and honey' in heaven; the goodies of heaven. I do not think walking on streets of gold and wearing a crown is a strong enough message of persuasion. My prayer is that at the end of this book, you will catch a vision of the New Jerusalem that will be a real motivating feature in your life.
