The cities were destroyed because they did not listen to God.

Egypt, Genesis 1
The Israelites live in Egypt among themselves in small huts. They are kept as slaves by Pharaoh.

Susa - Esther, Esther 1 (ff.)
Susa is the city where Esther lived and ministered.

Nineveh / Tarsis, Jonah
Jonah is told by God to go to Nineveh, but instead he goes to Tarsis - why does he want to go to one city rather than the other?

Stand by faith and proclaim it, no matter what situation you are in.

Heavenly Jerusalem, Revelation 21
What must I do to enter the kingdom of heaven? What happens in the "new Jerusalem"?
