According to David, mankind is not designed to live in heaven. Psalm 115:16, “The highest heavens belong to the LORD, but the earth He has given to mankind.” Isaiah 45:12 “It is I who made the earth and created man upon it.” This verse also indicates that mankind was designed to remain on the earth. This is also indicative for the creation of a new heaven and new earth, uncorrupted and perfect where the New Jerusalem will be placed onto the earth by the Creator Himself.
I have been going through Hebrews on Wednesdays, so today's post on judgment and marriage is just the next verse. However, this is a heavy topic. I am praying it draws you closer to Him! https://archive.aweber.com/awlist6425868/K9j3Y

I went through Torah and found as many guidelines as I could. Some of them reminded me of other guidelines elsewhere in Scripture. I didnt write the corresponding verse numbers, but i did try to write a laymans rule for each statute. One that I had never noticed before, is that we are not to sell food to the poor for a profit. This strikes me, as I am trying to start a grocery and a free store/pantry in our little town. I finally have all the numbers calculated, and just need to plug them into the business plan. Tomorrow I have an online meeting with vocational rehabilitation to get things going. My biggest fear is that I wont get the real estste I have selected for this endeavor. Many people have been writing down the realtors number!
