When the time came a voice from heaven came that guided the people in direction of God's tabernacle by which He would dwell with them. It was a lighted day of rapture. In the departures was the new life. They floated to a new dwelling place.
"And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be with them, and be their God." --Revelation 21: 3 KJV
