Paradise to me is a place where there is plenty of everything for everybody and no taxes.Everyone would be equal because there would be no money necessary to have what you wanted or needed. Everyone would get along because race and religion would no longer be issues to deal with on a daily basis. Everyone would love each other just because. You could spend the day reading a book, fishing, playing with your children and never have to leave them with anyone else during the day unless you asked one of the angels to help you out for a moment or two. The weather would be varied according to what you wished around your own yard, you could have snow somedays to play in or just to look at, gentle rain to walk in, sunshine to warm your face. whatever you wanted it to be from day to day would be met before you had to ask. And for all of that you would praise God daily and maybe even get to have special one on one talks with him. That , to me, would be paradise.

Some think that Paradise is nothing more than a myth. Others believe that it is a gardenlike utopia where good people live forever and share in joyful and productive activities.
The word “paradise” has been used to designate mankind’s first home, the garden of Eden. (Genesis 2:7-15) The Bible presents that garden as a real place where the first human couple lived free of disease and death. (Genesis 1:27, 28) Because they disobeyed God, the first couple lost their paradisaic home. However, many Bible prophecies describe a future in which humans will enjoy Paradise restored.

Paradise is a part of heaven, though it is unclear from Scripture if it is separated from the rest. It is heaven's version of the Garden of Eden or perhaps the Garden itself it is unclear, it is meant for those who have died and have received the joys of Salvation after Jesus conquered death and sin. It is a temporary place for humans until the Resurrection of the Dead occurs and the new Earth and new Heaven are created. For people are worldly beings not heavenly beings. Prior to Jesus' death the dead may or may not have gone to paradise when they died, but it is clear that there were two separate places for believers and non-believers before that time.
Genesis 3
23 So the LORD God banished him from the Garden of Eden to work the ground from which he had been taken. 24 After he drove the man out, he placed on the east side of the Garden of Eden cherubim and a flaming sword flashing back and forth to guard the way to the tree of life.
Luke 23:43
Jesus answered him, "I tell you the truth, today you will be with me in paradise."
Revelation 2:7
He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches. To him who overcomes, I will give the right to eat from the tree of life, which is in the paradise of God.
Revelation 6
9When he opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar (sic, Paradise) the souls of those who had been slain because of the word of God and the testimony they had maintained. 10They called out in a loud voice, "How long, Sovereign Lord, holy and true, until you judge the inhabitants of the earth and avenge our blood?" 11Then each of them was given a white robe, and they were told to wait a little longer, until the number of their fellow servants and brothers who were to be killed as they had been was completed.

paradise depends on your point of view/ Adam and Eve where given a literal paradise here on earth beneath the heavens, in which they were to live forever in. the bible says that not a word will leave gods mouth and not come back unfulfilled. all those in the old testament of the Bible did not have a heavenly hope, they believed in that paradise being restored. the lords pray says let your kingdom come in heaven and on earth. so paradise to me is the earth at the time when Satan no longer is able to spread his influences upon the earth. heaven is that place that Jesus now rules from,

When Adam & Eve was first here there was no Paridise in the heart of the earth, The Garden of Eden was paridise, When sin enter into the picture God withdrew that part of paridise, God did not run mankind out of Eden as many thinks, He just with drew his Glory away from mankind, to this day where the garden of Eden was at, People have lived there all the time. So what God did was just withdrew his presence from Mankind, that PERFECT relationship with Man. Then Paridise was put into the heart of the earth but away from hell, remember the story of the rich man dying, he beg God to tell his brothers not to come to hell, because he was in torment, But the bible also says that there was a great gulf between Hell & Paridise, which means even though both was in the heart of the earth, they were seperated, then when Jesus was Crucified, He went into the heart of the earth to preach to those souls that was in prison (Paridise), & when Jesus rose from the dead, he brought with him every soul that was in the paridise part of hell with him, & the bible says that when Christ rose from the dead That THE GRAVES(PLURAL) were opened, Then when Jesus acended into heaven He took with him Every Old Testament saint up to heaven which is also paridise, now paridise is just above the earth, in the heavens, Now we see no more paridise in the heart of the earth. Only Hell that place of torment.

Paradise does not exist anymore. It is where believers went before Jesus came and died for their sins. Once Jesus paid for man's sins on the Cross He took all believers to heaven with him, emptied Paradise and now all Christians go directly to heaven when they die.
