It would be helpful to google: "Third Heaven Bible" and see a teaching from a pastor.
People have actually tried to paint pictures of what they think the 3 heavens look like. Click on images. What you see, DO NOT believe literally, ok?
There are more. 3rd heaven scriptures. USE the sea arch Box to find them.
1Brethren, my heart's desire and prayer to God for Israel is, that they might be saved. 2For I bear them record that they have a zeal of God, but not according to knowledge. 3For they being ignorant of God's righteousness, and going about to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves unto the righteousness of God. 4For Christ is the end of the law for righteousness to every one that believeth
Luke 11:52
"Woe unto you, lawyers! for ye have taken away the key of knowledge: ye entered not in yourselves, and them that were entering in ye hindered."
Comments by Alex on the great Promise. Gal 3 v 16 Now unto Abraham and his seed was the Promise made but he said not unto seeds plural but unto 1 seed which is Christ. Thus its Christ that is gonna be multiplied as the stars of heaven and thats y the sower will go forth to sow his precious seed in Humanity that he might be multiplied in us sinners via his seed the Word . The words of the new covenant that God said he wd put in our hearts and minds after THOSE DAYS indicative of a certain 2 day-2000 yr period that has to be fulfilled ( the times of restitution scrip. speaks of ) God swore by himself when he made this PROMISE of multiplication meaning he himself was gonna be multiplied in humanity the world Thats y jesus is saying to whom the WORD came it made them Gods Which is the H.G. THAT CHILD OF PROMISE JESUS MENTIONS . which IS EMANUEL GOD with us the H.G. another COMFORTER IN ESSENCE another Solomon that is gona build the great Temple with in US. the temple of God is with MAN simply b/c of that great Promise of multiplication i will multiply thy seed as the stars of heaven thus the babes and the sucklings that can Praise him perfectly the H.G. THAT IS GONNA BE AS THE STARS OF HEAVEN TY JESUS. Smite the shephard and the sheep will be scattered THEN I WILL TURN MY HAND TO THE LITTLE ONES ( MULTIPLCATION ) B/C OF HIS DEATH. When a seed dies it multipliies, he told the Greeks unless a seed dies it abides alone but if it dies it will bring forth much fruit,The Greeks wanted to see him as the whole world wants to see him. Thus the whole world will see him simply b/c of his death which will result in Christ in all of US, many as the stars of heaven,so shall thy Seed be. Thats y he refers to the H.G as the Promise the H.G IS THE MULTIPLICATION OF CHRIST in US via his seed. Without that Promise SEED we cd not be bornagain of an incorruptiile seed even by the Words of God as Peter says THAT LIVETH AND ABIDETH FOR EVER IMPLING the Living WORDS . gbu
In response to Luke 11:28 I would add, that when I am going through some unbearable moment. As a christian I should be reminded that; since "all good things come from the giver of life." I do not have a reason to complaint because "all things (at the end) are (intended)for the good of them that loved the Lord." Just go through, it in spite of the pain!! Don't complaint, that is hearing and doing the will of God He will reward you. God bless you
The woman thought that it would be wonderful to be the mother of Jesus. She would be happy if her son was as great as him. His mother must be happy because God had *blessed her with such a son. That was true but Jesus spoke of something more important. The natural relationship with him is not so important. But God *blesses those people who have a right attitude to his word. They hear the word of God and they obey it.
A testimony: my Dad was at the end of Alzheimer's. One night he began to drown.
I cradled him, he was so scared.
A presence came in the doorway(invisible), and said "Leave. I'm taking him with me now." I was gone 4 minutes and when I came back my Dad was gone. His face was peaceful and luminous with light. I know he's with Jesus.
No matter what happens, spend as much time as you can with her. She'll be the first person you see in heaven.
Your heart shatters, but remember I said: God has plenty of gorilla glue. :)
That was a wonderful testimony Ray, to the Grace of our Lord Jesus Christ & the powerful, never failing Work of His Spirit in your life. Your burning desire not only to serve the Lord with all the strength & wisdom He gives you, but also to be transparent & humble before Him as you sit at His Feet, will most assuredly carry you through into a fruitful ministry that will touch many lives. You're starting later in life, which you will have considered, but age is no barrier when the calling & Spirit of God is upon you.
You will find others on this Site that have been involved in various ministries & I can truly say, that when we want to serve Him & are prepared to lay aside everything for the Gospel, He will not disappoint & as He said (in Jer 33:3): "Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and shew thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not". I emphasize the 'great & mighty things': as we take the 'risks' & allow Him to lead us to wherever & to whomever He wants us to minister, you will see things happen that go far beyond your comprehension. Why will this be? For the blessing of those reached & the increase of your faith & love for Him. That's all the Lord wants: a clean, humble & willing vessel fitted out for the Master's use.
May the Lord bless you, bring many to a deeper knowledge of Him & the Cross & enrichen your life as you experience more & more of Him. There is no greater work that one can do on Earth, than to devote oneself to serving the Lord; and isn't that the calling of every believer?
As I have been preparing for ministry, the Lord has placed a powerful But simple message in my heart, Preach the word preach salvation and feed his sheep. I am 56 years old, ever since I was a young child, I have been prophesied over many many times about my ministry, January last year my father who was an evangelist for over 50 years passed away, but before he passed away he wanted to pass The ministry over to me, there has been a huge shift in my relationship with the Lord, he has begin to speak to me in a way he's never spoken to me before, he's open my eyes to see things to understand things I did not understand before one of my biggest request was to become transparent, let me tell you he showed me things that I needed to let go, things that would help me, my heart hurts for the lost, i'm asking you to pray with me for strength and patience, I know It's not me that does the work it's the Holy Spirit, I just want to be the very best I can in my service to the Lord. Thank you and God bless you. I also wanted to say thank you for this amazing app I use it every single day, it is helped me alone substantially in the world. Again thank you very much and may God richly bless you for your service not just me I said many others I know you were reaching.
Peter, that's indeed a sad account you've shared. Has John Quigley or his department even cared to give you the full reasons for their decision, in writing? You could take that determination & have it considered by a legal firm (maybe removing the Justice Minister's name in case that colours their judgement) & see whether: 1. the prevention of Karen's return home & pursuing normal activities is lawful, and 2. whether Quigley's threats to the publication of your side of this story is even justifiable & constitutional.
Yet, in our hearts we know that the operation of governments & their judgements are very often totally opposed to Scriptural warrants & though leaving us sad & hopeless, we know that wickedness at all levels will be brought to Light & a true severe judgement will be pronounced upon the perpetrators. I know, little comfort here, when such injustices are the order of the day, but we can only trust in God, Who not only will judge righteously, but give Karen & her loved ones the grace & mental & emotional fortitude to live in such circumstances. God IS ABLE: just continue to hold out in believing prayer that He will work all things out for good, even though His Work behind the scenes is hidden from us & His Purposes are not revealed. I do hope that Karen will never feel unloved or alone in all this & that the same Spirit Who is in you both will minister in special ways in your situation. Every blessing brother.
Mrs Karen Buckland, married 26 years suffered a Stroke back in 2018 through a Lifestyle Solution s Carer not giving Asthma Puffer as per Care Plan, received neurosurgery and made full recovery to her pre-existing very limited mobility condition but is now kept from returning home to her husband and purpose built home, Church Fellowship, voting, physio, socializing and being respected as a Recipient of a WA Volunteer of the Year Award from then Governor of Western Australia, Michael Jeffery, Karen stated at her last Guardian ship Review that she wanted to return home but this was ignored. Karen has been deemed to be the Holder of 100% Full Mental Acuity but this is ignored. WA Justice Minister Quigley has threatened me with fines and or imprisonment for publishing this sorry saga. God's Law needs to be Obeyed...
Pray for the world health for divine health I have cried some many times because of hurtful things in my relationship with my neighbor. Pray for my relationship with my next door neighbor for our relationship to grow stronger and better than it has ever been. Help us draw closer together than ever before. Pray that we won't break apart for our love to be better than ever and her behavior and choices. Also pray for a miracle for our relationship to be more intimate. Pray for how my neighbor has treated me and how to love me more than before. Pray that nothing and no one will tear us apart. Pray for pulling down the strongholds and soul ties in her life. Stop all the wrongful and hurtful things that have been destroying our relationship. Set my neighbor free from the world of the enemy, from bad company and influences, from soul ties, and the things of the world. Pray that my neighbor won't leave me and to bring us together each day. Pray for restoration of what we had together and to bring our hearts together. Pray for my neighbor and her whole family for deliverance from any wickedness and rebellion, salvation also draws closer together to do things the godly way. Pray for my neighbor's brother, cousins, and others. Pray for the children and teenagers at the school and in community that come from a dysfunctional for deliverance from wickedness and rebellion. Pray for salvation for family members for deliverance for addiction and to turn their life around. Pray for Myself.

In 1 Kings 10, when the queen of Sheba heard of the fame of Solomon concerning the name of the LORD, she came to prove him with hard questions. Jesus used her as an example to shame the Jews who were full of unbelief regarding himself as God in the flesh ( 1 Timothy 3:16 ).
Likewise in Luke 4:24-28, Jesus used the example of the widow of Zarephath in 1 Kings 17 and Naaman the Syrian in 2 Kings 5 to show that the prideful Jews who considered the Gentiles as dogs were hindered from the Kingdom by their own unbelief while the despised ones gained acceptance with God by their faith.
In Romans 11, Paul explains that though the Jews were wrong to reject Jesus Christ and demand his crucifixion, God turned their failure into salvation for the Gentiles so that he might have mercy upon all. And he is yet able to save Israel when the fulness of the Gentiles be come in.
