EHP........There is a reason why Jesus spoke in allegory, and parables and metaphors. And He is still doing it, and for the same reason. There are those who will hear and then there are those who never will. Perhaps that is how he seperates the chaff from the grain

hi friend
Have you by any chance read Bishop Spong? He refers to himself and those like him 'believers in exile.' I used to be one, but not anymore. Anyhow, thanks for this post. SAS

you are right
the depictions of Heaven in Revelation are after heaven and earth have converged. The earth is renewed and the City of God that is described is on the earth. but I disagree on the Beautific Vision part. I dont think those angels get bored. God is eternal and His depths are infinate, I believe those creatures are constantly seeing something in God they have never seen before as they circle the THrone, and every time they see a new thing, they shout for joy. thats just what I think
