Rev 14:1; Heb 12:22

Yahuah installs His king there: "Yet have I set my king upon my holy hill of Zion" (Ps 2:6). It is "the city of the great King" (Ps 48:2); the mountain of His house is lifted above the hills (Isa 2:2-3); and "in mount Zion and in Jerusalem shall be deliverance" (Joel 2:32). The book reads the Lamb standing on mount Zion as Yahuah's heavenly dwelling and the seat of His kingship, not a piece of real estate in modern Israel. It is the one place Scripture says the nations cannot overtake. The Zionist reading fails on Hebrews 12:22, "ye are come unto mount Sion... the heavenly Jerusalem."
