Heavens
To get the topic going as it has come up recently there are three heavens.
1st one; Deut. 11:11. This referes to the one just above us where the birds
fly or the "rain of heaven" comes from.
3rd one; Is. 14:13,14. This one is where God is or abodes and at the moment
with Christ or Heaven in the "sides of the north". Acts 3:21.Whom the
heaven must receive. *Luke 10:18-20 I
beheld Satan fall from heaven.* Dan. 2:28 There is
a God in Heaven.
It is this "3rd" heaven which the being called God the Father asked the Logos to create as being the first of his creations and hence "In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth." In other words a single heaven. Bonnie Gaunt uses this single heaven or heaven without the "s" in her book "Stonehenge and the Great Pyramid.Window on the Universe" pages 111; 120 and 137.
2nd one; 1 Kings 8:27. This is the one that contains the first and the third
one or "heaven of heavens" which cannot contain God. This one like the God family has always existed but started off as empty space.
There are many scriptures to refer to all of these.
I have been reliably informed that the book of Enoch refers to 10 heavens.
Any other comments?
While we do not agree with everything in this article another is
Are you going to Heaven?
and
What is the
reward of the saved?
Others refer to Seven heavens
