The funnier thing is in the book Revelations when 1/3 of the stars in the sky come crashing to earth :D. We are so dead in the future!

it truly has to do with Correct tanslations being FREE from politics.
truly politics have created the current christianity.
Not truth.
i know that politics created the bible, both old and new testaments. and many popular books were KEPT out of the new testament because of the roman empire. Not because of God. The book of revelation was almost not considered and another book of apocalyptic proportion from Paul was rejected. yet christians today alter the book of revelation to make it "MORE agreable" to their own theology and tradition
but when it comes to the EARTH and its Heaven! it is easy for ONE saviour and ONE creator to call it heaven and earth and mistake the rest of the universe as being the SAME thing as our Little piece of heaven.
In the history of hte Catholic church, Heaven extended out to the moon, at least in a secondary degree.
But if you read the scriptures I think David or Samual wrote that there were 7 heavens, and Paul said he knew a man in the third heaven. the Mormons declare that there are 3 degress of the resurrection each having 3 levels within those 3 levels of heavenly rewards.
but Paul also wrote in ch.15 of corrinthians that thre are 3 resurrected body types. and he asociates them with Heaven bodies. the stars, the moon and the Sun. So heaven became asociated with the resurrection and heaven becomes divided according to judgment and rewards according to the promise of FAITH which is linked to how much a person "overcomes" in the world. If a person overcomes ALL things, he will receive all things. This included the authority and power of sitting in the throne of God.
So to me if a person received the highest Heaven he has overcome all things and therefore can become part of the godhead and therefore have fellowship with God In Gods Personal Heaven. while the rest are called lower sons of god and even just HOLY angels. and the rest are just servants.
but it takes intelligence and knowledge to be able to create a planet and a galaxy and it takes righteousness and diligence and faith to RULE over a planet with created mankind in each planet. I think God gives the most holy of holies the opportunities to create and become saviours like what is described int he book of obadiah where there a many saviours on mt sion

Faith is all fine and dandy. But I still wish people would just allow for the fact that the Bible was written at a time when people had a primitive understanding of the world around them. I'm not saying God isn't real or that the Bible doesn't teach good morals. I'm just saying that like all works of literature (be it fiction or fact) the Bible was written to suit the time it was written in.
That said, you didn't really ask a question--just random wonderings. However, I hope you don't mind that I embellished a bit.

Heb 11:3 Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear.
Moses wrote the book of Genesis, he also wrote the book of Job.
In the book of Job, much is written about galaxies (eg Orions belt) and other worlds.
Hope this helps, God bless.

What makes it mandatory for God to have been created? IF the universe is created - meaning there inevitably is a realm outdoors the actual universe. What foundation do you need to assert the guidelines that govern the actual universe, and have been created with the actual universe could have any application outdoors of the actual universe?

ECCLESIASTES 8:17 Then I beheld all the work of God, that a man cannot find out the work that is done under the sun: because though a man labour to seek it out, yet he shall not find it ; yea further; though a wise man think to know it , yet shall he not be able to find it .
No one will ever know how God did it all, but the Bible clearly tells us that God did it for us

Yes. He did. And holy men of God spake as they were moved ie. inspired by the Holy Spirit. The language of the bible is beautiful because it explains spiritual things so that they are understood by the spirit of man...meaning you must be born again to understand what the bible is saying about creation and God and life because it is spiritual knowledge but we are carnal until we are born again. To be born again means that you become aware of the sin in your life by the power of the Holy Spirit. He convinces you of your need for Jesus Christ to save you because without his saving blood your sin condemns you to eternal separation from God...which is hell. If you accept this... calling ...of the Holy Spirit then you can read the bible and it all becomes clear.

If the people back them had the technology of today it would be different. It was written in the knowledge of its time.
BTW the Big Bang theory is a belief as well. It can't be proved either.

Okay, you are confusing yourself....
You've got that "God created the heavens and the earth", part right....
but, there was nothing there till he said, "Let there be".....
So add that to your equation and move on.....
