It was that bit of plastic wrapping that made the shot.

Structures: stone ones that were made alive by the second birth but have become stones again: to whom do these turn now?
A tent, tabernacle or temporary one: so, structures of flesh, stone ...and inviting the question of eternal versus temporary structures? Which structures remain, which are burnt?

The world is not meant to be transformed by us.
It's meant to be worked and tended by us.
We are NOT commanded to transform the world...but to NOT conform to it.
We ARE commanded to transform our habitual behaviour by the mental renewal described practically in Romans 12.

A new heaven and new earth do not and will not emerge from the transformed bits of an old one. Never.
Nothing emerges from the world save the world's nature.
