All Christians know that it starts right in the heart. Jesus said: “The kingdom of God comes not with observation: Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for, behold, the kingdom of God is within you” (Luke 17:20,21).
In other words, the promises of God are NOW, with God’s presence within. And that is the “born again” experience that prepares you for the time when we are changed “in the twinkling of an eye.”
The actual kingdom is another galaxy somewhere—remember that God created our personal galaxy –and the evening and the morning was the fourth day.
But it doesn’t end there because to redeem us, God had to become a man. Yes, a stunted perverted man as the second, unfallen Adam (1 Corinthians 15:45).
Oh what love, that God would leave the glories of heaven and take fallen humanity, sufferer in our place the penalty of the vilest criminal, and eventually abandon His heavenly throne and rule here on the New Earth in the first Adam’s stead?
Revelation 21:1-3 “And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea.
“And I John saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.
“ And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God [is] with men, and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be with them, [and be] their God.”
Yes, my R & S companions, God will rule here and Earth will be the New Heaven for eternity—what love, what wisdom; it is beyond complete comprehension.
When? The timing of the great conflict is revealed in a last-day Bible code. It also proves mathematically that Jesus is EXACTLY WHO HE SAID HE IS, the MESSIAH: www.revelado.org/revealed.htm

Yes heaven is for real. It is the place where God, the saints, the angels and all people who loved and served God in this world go. It is the place where God lives. It is a place where there is no suffering and pain. It is a place where all people are happy seeing and living with God. It is a place where God is King. Many people have gone there and went back. When we die, we will go through a tunnel like journey. Then at the end of the tunnel you will see a bright light. It is not on the physical world. It is part of the spiritual world. It is where souls go when they die without mortal and venial sins. It is definitely not an invention. Documentaries have been shown on TV about people who have had near death experiences. They had heart attacks but lived again or where revived by the doctors. So they went through the tunnel then were asked to return because it was not yet time to die. These people had as their mission the responsibility to tell us that heaven is real not an invention. So the bible is real not an invention either.

Heaven is indeed a real place. The Bible tells us that Heaven is God’s throne (Isaiah 66:1, Acts 7:48-49, Matthew 5:34-35). After Jesus’ resurrection and appearance on earth to His disciples “He was taken up into heaven and sat at the right hand of God” (Mark 16:19, Acts 7:55-56). “Christ did not enter a man made sanctuary that was only a copy of the true one; He entered heaven itself, now to appear for us in God’s presence,“ (Hebrews 9:24). Jesus not only went before us, entering on our behalf, but is alive and has a present ministry in heaven, serving as our high priest in the true tabernacle made by God (Hebrews 6:19-20, 8:1-2).

Heaven is also known as the Astral Plane. It is actually the first three dimensions above our plane of existence.
Genesis says the Firmament was made "between" the waters "above", and waters "below" the Firmament.
And the Firmament was called Heaven. "Waters" is symbolic for spiritual forces at work in Creation.
2 Corinthians 12 talks about astral travel, (in and out of the body), and the Third Heaven.

Paradise is more real than anything in this universe. It is the source and pattern of all material reality. Although it's absolute location is situated at the center of the universe, Paradise itself transcends space. The Urantia book says that Paradise exist simultaneously at the center of all creation and at the nucleus of each electron...

1 John 10:18 No one takes it from me, but I lay it down of my own accord. I have authority to lay it down and authority to take it up again. This command I received from my Father."
19 At these words the Jews were again divided.
20 Many of them said, "He is demon-possessed and raving mad. Why listen to him?"
21 But others said, "These are not the sayings of a man possessed by a demon. Can a demon open the eyes of the blind?"
22 Then came the Feast of Dedication at Jerusalem. It was winter,
23 and Jesus was in the temple area walking in Solomon's Colonnade.
24 The Jews gathered around him, saying, "How long will you keep us in suspense? If you are the Christ, tell us plainly."
25 Jesus answered, "I did tell you, but you do not believe. The miracles I do in my Father's name speak for me,
26 but you do not believe because you are not my sheep.
27 My sheep listen to my voice; I know them, and they follow me.
28 I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; no one can snatch them out of my hand.
29 My Father, who has given them to me, is greater than all ; no one can snatch them out of my Father's hand.
30 I and the Father are one."

Anyone who has a freshly-cashed paycheck in his pocket, four or five beersunder his belt, with a hot stripper walking him back to the booth for a private dance knows that heaven does indeed exist, right here on earth.

It is 2 blocks away from Dimension X. You'll see the huge Mcdonalds sign near Black Hole 1212. Turn Left.
