Those having fellowship with God
New Update
How happy you would be when your child empathizes with you and shares sincere love with you! It is the same with God who is Light. He wants us to walk in the Light and share intimate fellowship with Him as His loving child. Those who walk in the Light can share lovely exchanges with God forever, so we need every effort to come forth as His true children who can understand His heart and share everlasting lo ...
       
 
  
 

[Special] Mysterious Spaces of Heavens

1. The Earth
2. The Earth in the solar system
3. The solar system in the galaxy
4. The galaxy

Countless groups of galaxies exist in the universe
In a spiral galaxy among the countless galaxies, is the Earth (Picture 3)
A spot in the spiral is the sun. We are living on the planet called 'the Earth' that is revolving around the sun.
By comparing a grain of sand to the sea with the spiral galaxy where we are living, we can almost imagine how big the universe is. (Picture 4)
Additionally, the Bible tells us that there are several heavens in addition to the heaven that is visible.



Astronomers thought that a star would be ripped apart near a black hole due to gravity. They also predicted a great deal of energy would emanate as a form of light when the disrupted stars were sucked into black hole because of friction among other materials. For the first time, through a satellite and an astronomical telescope, how a star was drawn into super massive black hole and the resulting radiating lights was recently captured 3.9 billion light years from the earth.( A 'light year' is the distance light travels in a year.)




A black hole is swallowing a star. The star was destroyed for approaching the black hole. Disrupted star forms an accretion disk around the black hole. Some materials gushed out from the black hole and strong lights radiated. Then, all remaining remnants were sucked into the inner black hole and the lights disappeared. (Source: Digital Times)


What kind of space is there in such a black hole? What kinds of spaces are there, other than the universe, that we know? The Bible lets us know there are several heavens in addition to the visible heaven. Such heavens are strictly separated, but they are linked closely at the same time. So the gates of the second heaven, the third heaven, and the fourth heaven open in the first heaven where we live.


The things that happen when the space of the second heaven opens into the first heaven

For example, at the judgment on Sodom and Gomorrah, fire and brimstone came down from heaven like rain. (Genesis 19:24) It's the same when Elijah confronted 850 prophets of gentile gods at Mount Carmel and brought down fire from heaven. (1 Kings 18:37-38) God opened the gates of the second heaven and burned the things of the first heaven.

There was a star of the second heaven that guided the three magi to the Baby Jesus as recorded in Matthew 2:9. God moved a star in the second heaven so that there was no influence at all in the first heaven. Then, God opened the space of the second heaven where the star was moving, so that the magi could see it. God gave manna to the sons of Israel for 40 years. The manna was also given from the second heaven as written in Exodus 16:4.





Thus, if an object from the second heaven comes out to the space of the first heaven, people in the first heaven can see and touch it.


The things that happen when the space of the third heaven opening into the first heaven

When the apostles Paul and Peter were preaching the gospel and were guiltlessly imprisoned, angels of the Lord helped them. The angels were able to come to them and help them get out of the prison because the space of the third heaven opens into that of the first heaven. (Acts 12:7-10, 16:25-26) The apostles Paul and Peter felt no resentment in their suffering being persecuted. Because they praised God and rejoiced instead, God sent them angels to loosen their bindings.





God sent His angel to Daniel and shut the mouths of lions so they couldn't harm Daniel when he was cast into the lions' den as recorded in Daniel 6:22. Daniel was protected because he had committed no crime.

When the heavenly host and angels come and go, the passageway to the third heaven opens up. When the beings in the third heaven come down to this first heaven, they also have to be covered by the space of the third dimension. It is like people have to wear a space suit to walk on the surface of the moon.


The power of God which can take place in the fourth heaven

The fourth heaven is the space of God the Origin and exists for God the Trinity. Everything is possible in the fourth heaven. In the fourth heaven, as God harbors something in heart, it is done. Physical things can be created from nothing. A solid substance can become liquid, and the liquid can become gas, or the gas can become a solid substance freely without a transformational process. In the fourth heaven, the works of creation, the works transcending space and time, the works related to life, and the works manifested through use of the spiritual realm can take place.

Since Jesus possessed this fourth dimension, even though He was far distanced from them, the sick were healed through just His words as written in Matthew Chapter 8. Joshua made the sun stand still as written in Joshua 10:13, Elijah outran the chariot of Ahab as described in 1 Kings Chapter 18, and Deacon Philip moved through the space in Acts Chapter 8. However, those works can happen only when things are proper according to the justice of God. This is because God the Almighty, who governs all heavens, is the love and justice.
