Here are some more information for Heaven Earth:

There are many ways to classify Heaven. Buddhism partitions Heaven into three major regions: Heaven of Desire, Heaven of Image, and Heaven of Non-image. It further subdivides these three regions into twenty-eight sub-regions, depending on their pureness. Heaven of Desire has six-regions, Heaven of Image has eighteen, and Heaven of Non-image has four. Taoism partitions Heaven into thirty-six sections because there are three-hundred and sixty degrees ia a circle. Taoism also classifies Heaven into seven levels, which correspond to the seven levels of one's pratice, and is similar to that of Christianity and Islam. Heaven is also commonly classified into twelve levels. Tao Te Ching states: One gives rise to Two. Two gives rise to Three. Three gives rise to everything." Thus, it is sufficient to partition Heaven into three spaces.

"I Ching" describes the mysticism of the creation of Heaven and Earth with three characteristics: first, the Non-Change, which is "Wu-ji Li-tien; second, the Change, which is Tai-ji Qi-tien; and lastly Huang-ji Xiang-tien. These three Heavens are described as follows:

Xiang-tien: Everything that has matter, shape, and/or form belongs to this space, including all items that can be observed with the human eyes. Planets, earth, mountains, rivers, humans, animals, plants, and minerals, whether having life or not, all exist within this space. It is the material world and the three dimensional space.

Qi-tien: This space consists of the gaps between matters, also commonly known as the "space" or "Heaven." The gaps between matters cannot be seen with the human eyes. However, it can be felt with other sensory organs. For example, our feelings and consciousness exist within this space.

Inside this space, the light and pure "Qi" belongs to "Yang" and the heavy and non-pure "Qi" belongs to "Yin." Yang and Yin confront each other. This is also called "qian" and "kun." Thus, "I Ching" states "Qian" is Heaven and "Kun" Earth. When we say "Heaven, Earth, and all matters," "Heaven" here actually implies "Qi-tien."

Without this space, Earth will be without support; mankind cannot live; the sun, the moon, stars, and planets would collapse; and all matters and life cannot exist. The function of this Heaven is to control the growth and decline of "Yin" and "Yang" so that their transitions are continuous and smooth. For example, the flow of the four seasons is smooth and continuous. This Heaven also governs the beginning and end of all matters. Heaven and Hell, which are created by the good and evil of human minds, exist in this space. It is the Spiritual world. It is sometimes referred to as the space with more than three dimansions.

Li-tien: This is the void. It has no form nor shape, no sound nor scent. It is an infinite spiritual energy. It is the space of pure souls. It is absolutely empty and still. It is immense that It comprises every thing. It is so divine that Its existence can only be reconized through supernatural inspiration. It is so tiny that It can be anywhere. It can create and cultivate all lives and matters. It cannot be observed with any scientific means nor can It be detected by any human senses. It has no beginning or end. It always exists and is always divine. It is the origin of both the material world and spiritual world, the Creator of all matters and lives. When the material world and spiritual world do not exist, It is still present. The Buddhist Sutra saying "no beginning, no end, not polluted, not purified, cannot be increased, and cannot be decreased" refers to the essence of Li-tien. It is the Void, yet mysteriously exists. It is what the saying "No image and image are the same. No physical existence and physical existence are the same" desribes. It is the Kingdom of God.

In conclusion, Li-tien is the essence of the Void, Qi-tien is the "Yin" and "Yang" of Tai-ji, and Xiang-tien is the material world. In the genesis, Li-tien created Qi-tien, which in turn created Xiang-tien. In the destruction cycle, Xiang-tien will collapse first, followed by Qi-tien. Li-tien will always exist.

Confucius said,"One who awakes to Tao in the morning will not have any regret even if he dies in the same night." This clearly states the importance of transcending the cycle of birth, death and rebirth and return to Li-tien.

In The Bible: The Generations Of The Heavens And The Earth

This is a new series (1-35) of Verse No. in the Bible versus the Quran.

Verse No. 35 in the Old Testament says: These are the generations of the heavens and the earth when they were created, in the day that the LORD God made the earth and the heavens.

Verse No. 35 in the New Testament says: When they (the Magi) saw the star, they rejoiced exceedingly with great joy.

Verse No. 35 in the Noble Quran says: How can ye reject the faith in Allah? seeing that ye were dead, and He gave you life; then will He cause you to die, and will again bring you to life; and again to Him will ye return.

----------------------------------

 

The verse No. 35 in the Old Testament is Genesis 2:4

The verse says: These are the generations of the heavens and the earth when they were created, in the day that the LORD God made the earth and the heavens.

 

The verse talks about the generations (the account) of the heavens and of the earth when they were created in the day that the LORD God made earth and heaven.

This is the first time in the Bible to say the LORD God; all the verses before this one used to say God not the LORD God

 

What about the creation of all that is Between the heavens and the earth

In the process of the Creation, the Bible always says that God created the heavens and the earth while the Quran always says that Allah created the heavens and the earth and "All That is Between Them".

 

Allah Creates the Heavens and Earth and all that is Between Them

Verse 5:17 says:

...for Allah is the kingdom of the heavens and the earth and all that lies between them. he creates what he will (pleases) and Allah has power over all things.

Verse 32:4 says:

"it was Allah, who, in six days created the heavens and the earth and all that is between them"

----------------------------------

 

The verse No. 35 in the New Testament is Matthew 2:10

 

In the article 33-34, King Herod sent the Magi to Bethlehem, and said, Go and search diligently, make a careful search for the young child (the Lord Jesus); and when you have found him (As soon as you find him), bring me word again (report to me), that I may come and worship him also. After hearing the king (Herod), they (the Magi) went their way; and the star, which they had seen in the east, went on before them until it came and stood over the place where the Child was.

In this article, Matthew 2:10 says: When they (the Magi) saw the star, they rejoiced exceedingly with great joy.

 

The verse means that the Magi who came from Iran today were rejoiced exceedingly with great joy when they saw the star that was stood over the place where the Child (the Lord Jesus) was.

It is very interesting that the star which the Magi had seen in the east (in Iran today), went on before them until it came and stood over the place where the Child (the Lord Jesus) was.  What kind of star was it? What was its speed? Was its speed the same as that of the Magi? I really have no clue.

----------------------------------

 

Verse No. 35 in the Noble Quran is 2:28,

Chapter 2 is Surah AL-BAQARA (THE COW),

 

The verse says: How can ye reject the faith in Allah? seeing that ye were dead, and He gave you life; then will He cause you to die, and will again bring you to life; and again to Him will ye return.

 

The meaning of verse 2:28

 

O Mankind! How do you disbelieve in Allah, how astonishing that you disbelieve in Allah when you were dead, and He gave you life,

then He shall make you dead, after your terms of life are completed; He will give you death when your lifespan ends,  

then He shall give you life, at the Resurrection,

then to Him you shall be returned!, after resurrection, in the Hereafter whereupon He shall requite you according to your deeds; He shall requite you for your works.

 

This verse explains the cycle of every man, it says that any man was dead then he became living. Then he will die and will have life again.

It is like that: death then life then death then life.

This means clearly that each one of us was died before getting the life of this world; that we know it and believe in it.

In other word, we were died before we have life.

Herein is an example to simplify how were we died before we have life?

Joseph was born at the 3rd of Jan. 1966; well, where and how was Joseph at the 3rd of Jan. 1965, or 1964 or 1963? He was dead particles on the earth!

It is very premature to ask this question:

Is the Quran quoted from the Bible?

Wait and you will see.

Well we our suppose to act in a manner that will get us to heaven. That means following the 10 commandments, following the beatitudes,reaing the bible,being modest with our clothing choices,going to mass,going to confesion,and leading righteous lifes.

The following Questions should help you form your paper: Everyday do we give examples to suggest that we our christains? ( I am ammusming that you are a christain sorry if you are not). How can we bring the kingdom of God on earth? What do you do that shows that YOU are a Christain? When you see someone else do something nice for another person do you think about the kingdom of God on Earth? Is there a way in which we experience God's sovereignty in our lives now? How should our prayer life be affected? What motivates us to be Kingdom-oriented people? What does it mean for Christ to reign in your heart? Why do you think repentance is required in order to enter the kingdom of God? Has there ever been a time when you were almost going to commit a sin but then didn't? Explain. How does the teachings about the kingdom of God affect your church community? What would it take for you to be more like Jesus? How is being a christain make you differnet from non-christains? What would happen if followers loved each other like christ loved us?

Hope I helped
