 Heaven and Hell: What Does the Bible Teach?

It ought to be known that the conjunction of man with heaven and with hell is not an immediate conjunction with them, but a mediate conjunction by means of spirits who are in the world of spirits.

Because of this the world of spirits is intermediate between heaven and hell, and the equilibrium itself is there.

 ZetaTalk: Heaven and Hell   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
Heaven and Hell are described in the Bible and the Koran as places commensurate with the rewards deserved by those who have functioned in the Service-to-Others or Service-to-Self orientation - in the minds of the authors of these books, who in the main were in the Service-to-Others when they authored the books.
Thus, heaven is viewed as up in the skies, and the higher the better.
In fact, the just deserts of the Service-to-Others and Service-to-Self are not Heaven and Hell, but to live with their own kind, which is in a manner of speaking, to our way of thinking in any case, a type of Heaven and Hell.
