10. "Whenever I think about heaven, it makes me depressed. I'd rather cease to exist when I die. I can't stand the thought of endless boring tedium. Heaven doesn't sound much better than hell. I'd rather be annihilated than spend eternity like that."

44. This place is not an ethereal realm of disembodied spirits . Humans aren't suited for such a realm. A place is by nature physical, just as human beings are by nature physical (not just spiritual). What we've been specifically designed for is the place God made for us: Earth.

50. How you have fallen from heaven , O morning star, son of the dawn! You have been cast down to the earth… You said in your heart, ‘I will ascend to heaven; I will raise my throne above the stars of
51. God; I will sit enthroned on the mount of assembly, on the utmost heights of the sacred mountain. I will ascend above the tops of the clouds; I will make myself like the Most High .’ Isaiah 14:12‑14
52. You were in Eden, the garden of God... You were anointed as a guardian cherub… You were on the holy mount of God…You were blameless in your ways…till wickedness was found in you…. So I drove you in disgrace from the mount of God, and expelled you, O guardian cherub… Ezekiel 28:13-16
53. After being evicted from Heaven, the devil is bitter toward 1) God , but toward 2) man and 3) heaven, the place that's no longer his. He usurps and corrupts humanity's God-given rulership of earth. He whispers lies about Heaven and suppresses the doctrine of the New Earth.
54. We are not unaware of [Satan's] schemes. 2 Cor. 2:11 Put on the full armor of God so that you can take your stand against the devil's schemes. Eph. 6:11
55. A distorted view of heaven: 1) robs us of joy in anticipating being with our bridegroom. 2) makes us love the present earth [not the new earth] , as if it were our home. 3) takes away our motivation to tell others about Jesus and how to go to Heaven.

Editor's Notes
Today you will be with me in Paradise.
Christ is the center of Heaven. To depart and be in Heaven. No, the essence is to be with Christ. All of Heaven’s joys are derivative from Christ and secondary to Christ. They all flow from the depth of his character.
I’ve often read at memorial services this depiction of a believer’s death: I’m standing on the seashore. A ship at my side spreads her white sails to the morning breeze and starts for the blue ocean. She’s an object of beauty and strength and I stand and watch her until, at length, she hangs like a speck of white cloud just where the sea and the sky come down to mingle with each other. And then I hear someone at my side saying, “There, she’s gone.” Gone where? Gone from my sight, that is all. She is just as large in mast and hull and spar as she was when she left my side. And just as able to bear her load of living freight to the place of destination. Her diminished size is in me, not in her. And just at the moment when someone at my side says, “There, she’s gone,” there are other eyes watching her coming, and there are other voices ready to take up the glad shout, “Here she comes!” And that is dying.339

Nostalgia for Eden Spurgeon sermons
Begin with Spurgeon quotes?
Note: The eternal Heaven will not involve us going up to Heaven to live with God in his [unearthly] realm. Rather, it will involve God coming down from Heaven to live with us in our realm—the New Earth. We’ve heard it said, “This world is not our home.” We should qualify that to say “This world—as it now is, under the curse—is not our home.” But we should also say, “This world—as it once was, before sin and curse—was our home.” And we should add, “This world—as it will be, delivered from the curse—will be our home.”

Curse extends to animals; they fell on man’s coat-tails How does Genesis 3:17-24 explain why there would be need for a “new heavens and new earth”?

Hence the need for redemption. The need for a new earth!
