The Third Heaven and its 7 Spiritual Spheres, The Kingdom of God The Third Heaven Bible
Where, indeed. The Bible tells us that it contains Paradise, which once stood across the street from the bad place where the rich man died in the story of the rich man and Lazarus. (The extract from Josephus' Discourse to the Greeks on Hades, attributed by modern scholars as most likely the work of Hippolytus of Rome c. 170 - 235 A.D. gives a parallel interpretation of the conditions of Paradise and Hades as seen in those times). Hebrews 4 tells us that God's true Sabbath is not a day of the week, but rather a time that is both future (as far as we are concerned) and present existence (we can enter into his "rest" now to some extent). Therefore, the third heaven is above time and space itself. It coexists and contains the past, present and future in a sense that we cannot understand without really being there. Because of these present, the universe is not "in". It is better to say that the universe is in it. Shamayim (שָׁמַיִם) is a plural word in Hebrew that speaks of the multiple nature of the use of the word. From the Third Heaven will eventually come the New Heaven and the New Earth. This now requires some discussion of what the First and Second Heavens are. They are never called this way, so people speculate. I postulate, with some degree of confidence, that the First Heaven includes the atmosphere. Birds fly in the "sky. Some think that the Second Heaven is where the stars and planets are, but I have good reasons to disagree with this. I would place all the visible sky above in the category of First Heaven. The Second Heaven is a spiritual realm. Why? Because Paul tells us that we are currently in heavenly places. In a way we are in two places at once, and that is by virtue of being "born of the spirit. The part of us that was missing is the link to the world beyond this physical world. But the news is not all good. We fight, according to the same Epistle to the Ephesians, "not against flesh and blood, but against the principalities, against the powers, against the rulers of the world of the darkness of this age, and against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places. These words "heavenly places" are in the Greek text as a single word, ἐπουρανίοις, from Strong's Concordance, heavenly, heavenly, in the heavenly sphere, the sphere of spiritual activities; found: divine, spiritual. So it is not the Third Heaven if the fallen angels are also there. It is the invisible kingdom around us where angels and demons dwell, and minister to us or work against us (according to their nature and disposition). In Daniel's vision, everything was angels against demons all the time, but now, because of our restoration to a spiritual plane, we are involved in the struggle. It's not the First Heaven, and it can't be the Third Heaven so, voila! Le deuxième ciel. The Second Heaven. So the first heaven is natural, the second is a supernatural bridge between and the third is the culmination, and for the Christian, the final destination, from where the paths to infinite possibilities extend. Since there will be a new heaven and a new earth, apparently there will always be three, and their natures will always be the same.
