In this passage, the writer is connecting the heavenly Jerusalem with the promise in Haggai that once more God will shake not only earth, but also heaven. When God descended to Mt. Sinai with the giving of the law, the earth shook. Through entering into covenant, Israel became the people of God. The law that had been written only on fallen consciences, now was written on tablets of stone. But as Hebrews has said many times, the New Covenant is a greater covenant because not only earth is shaken, but heaven as well. We see that in the establishment of the heavenly Jerusalem and we will consider what that means, but the application God has for us is that we are to focus on not the things that will be removed. Instead, we are to focus on the things that will remain for God will consume the rest for He is a consuming fire.
