So, if it is not an actual tree of life, holy city, river of life, it is fake.No, not fake. But who's to say that these 'locations' and structures are not part of the all-encompassing Presence of God?
I just don't accept that God shares or reduplicates or incorporates His Deific Attributes and Nature in a place or structure. The language can be for our limited benefit but God Himself is more, eternally more.
After all, didn't the items in the Tabernacle all represent some aspect of Christ using type and shadow?
Plain and simple.
Heaven is not just a state of being, but being given a mansion, etc.
Even Jesus would be teaching fake news if there are no mansions, and he would not have told us about it.....
In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. [3] And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.
