Heaven is the dwelling place of God and the holy angels; it is not here. When Jesus returns to Earth to gather His people and resurrect the righteous, He will take us all to heaven. Please read John 14:1-4 and 1 Thes.. 4:13-17.

It was John the Baptist who preached that the 'Kingdom of Heaven was at hand', but this was a call to repentance and an announcement of the pending Ministry of Jesus, not a declaration of where heaven was. One of the purposes' of Jesus' ministry was to -reeducate the people about the Character of God, as it had become so misunderstood by the people of God.

Heaven is going to be here on earth. Correct! Answer Enclosed!

THE THREE HEAVENS
There's 3 heavens.

First Heaven = This is also called the firmament or expanse of heaven. It is the heaven where the birds fly and where the clouds give rain. (Gen.1:26; 2:20; 8:2 & 1Kings 18:45)

Second Heaven = This refers to outerspace where the sun, moon and stars can be found. (Gen.22:17 & Exodus 32:13 & Joshua 10:13)

Third Heaven = The Apostle Paul tells us that the heaven of God's abode is the "third heaven." In the Old Testament this is often designated by the phrase "the heaven of heavens." (Joshua 2:11 & Psalms 11:4 & 2Corinthians 12:2 equated with v.4 = paradise)

THERE ARE TWO KINGDOMS: ONE ON EARTH AND THE OTHER ONE COMING DOWN FROM HEAVEN.

The 1st Kingdom of Heaven =
DAN.7:27 = "AND THE KINGDOM AND DOMINION, AND THE GREATNESS OF THE KINGDOM UNDER THE WHOLE HEAVEN, SHALL BE GIVEN TO THE PEOPLE OF THE SAINTS OF THE MOST HIGH, WHOSE KINGDOM IS AN EVERLASTING KINGDOM, AND ALL DOMINION SHALL SERVE AND OBEY HIM."
REV.5:10 = "AND HAST MADE US UNTO OUR GOD KINGS AND PRIESTS: AND WE SHALL REIGN ON THE EARTH."

The 2nd kingdom of Heaven =
AFTER 1,000 YEARS = A NEW HEAVEN AND NEW EARTH-HOLY CITY COMING DOWN FROM HEAVEN = REV.21:1-4; ISAIAH 65:17-25; 66:1,22 AND ETC.

SO HERE'S WHAT WE'RE GOING TO DO---
ISAIAH 66:21; ZECH.14:9-11 = "BUILD HOUSES, PLANT VINEYARDS, EAT VINEYARDS"
ISAIAH 66:23; ZECH.14:16-19 = "WORSHIP FROM ONE NEW MOON TO ANOTHER AS ONE SABBATH TO ANOTHER"
JESUS WILL BE GIVING CITIES TO THE SAINTS INWHICH THEY WILL BE TEACHING OTHERS THE TRUE MESSAGE OF THE BIBLE = MATT.25:14-23; EZEKIEL 36:10,33; LUKE 13:26; ISAIAH 61:4
WE WON'T MARRY OR BE GIVEN UNTO MARRIAGE = MATT.22:30
BOYS AND GIRLS WILL BE PLAYING IN THE STREETS = ZECHARIAH 8:4-5,8
MEEK SHALL INHERIT THE EARTH = PSALM 37:9-11; MATT.5:5; REV.5:10

Well obviously the "physical" heavens are above us ( the big blue sky) We all know that GOD created the heavens, so he actually existed before heaven. He doesent actually need a home, because he's a spirit and to me he's everywhere all the time. But NO heaven is not here, its up there.

I think you misread it. Because Gods presense is in heaven...

Job 22:12
"Is not God in the heights of heaven? And see how lofty are the highest stars!

Realize he says Heights?

Hell is on Earth, Heaven is the better place we struggle to get to

In one of the Gnostic gospels (not allowed in the Bible because they were too revolutionary) Jesus says:

"The kingdom of heaven is spread upon the earth but they do not see it."

If we open our eyes it's already here.

If not, we continue to struggle in hell.

It's up to us.
