In this clip from his interview on the Love the Bible podcast, Randy shares some thoughts about oceans on the New Earth, the symbolic meaning of the seas in the Bible, as well as the surprising image of Leviathan.

One of my favorite things to see when I've snorkeled is yellow Tangs hanging out with sea turtles. But I've never seen this many! Great photo someone sent me. 

It was our final day in Maui. That morning I asked the Lord, knowing full well there are countless things far more important, if He would graciously allow me to see something in the water I’d never seen before.

Yesterday we looked at reef fish. Today it’s turtles. Tomorrow I’m going to share an amazing ocean surprise God shared with me on our last day in Maui.  

When I think of the first glimpse of Heaven, I think of the first time I went snorkeling. It was absolutely breathtaking. There were thousands of fish of every shape and size and color, and just when you think you’ve seen the most beautiful creation, here comes another one.

If you’ve ever spent a leisurely day on a golden beach or sailed across the vast ocean or observed the beauty of God’s underwater creatures, you may be surprised that John, taken in a vision to the far future, says that on the New Earth “the sea was no more.”
