    My natural desire is to leave on earth. This according to,God original purpose for the. Psalms 37:29 The righteous will possess the earth, And they will live forever on it. 30 The mouth of the righteous one imparts wisdom, And his tongue speaks about justice.

    Hell 

    The word is used in the King James Version (as well as in the Catholic Douay Version and most older translations) to translate the Hebrew sheʼohlʹ and the Greek haiʹdes. In the King James Version the word “hell” is rendered from sheʼohlʹ 31 times and from haiʹdes 10 times. This version is not consistent, however, since sheʼohlʹ is also translated 31 times “grave” and 3 times “pit.” In the Douay Version sheʼohlʹ is rendered “hell” 64 times, “pit” once, and “death” once.

    In 1885, with the publication of the complete English Revised Version, the original word sheʼohlʹ was in many places transliterated into the English text of the Hebrew Scriptures, though, in most occurrences, “grave” and “pit” were used, and “hell” is found some 14 times. This was a point on which the American committee disagreed with the British revisers, and so, when producing the American Standard Version (1901) they transliterated sheʼohlʹ in all 65 of its appearances. Both versions transliterated haiʹdes in the Christian Greek Scriptures in all ten of its occurrences, though the Greek word Geʹen·na (English, “Gehenna”) is rendered “hell” throughout, as is true of many other modern translations.

    Concerning this use of “hell” to translate these original words from the Hebrew and Greek, Vine’s Expository Dictionary of Old and New Testament Words (1981, Vol. 2, p. 187) says: “HADES . . . It corresponds to ‘Sheol’ in the O.T. [Old Testament]. In the A.V. of the O.T. [Old Testament] and N.T. [New Testament], it has been unhappily rendered ‘Hell.’”

    Collier’s Encyclopedia (1986, Vol. 12, p. 28) says concerning “Hell”: “First it stands for the Hebrew Sheol of the Old Testament and the Greek Hades of the Septuagint and New Testament. Since Sheol in Old Testament times referred simply to the abode of the dead and suggested no moral distinctions, the word ‘hell,’ as understood today, is not a happy translation.”

    God created the earth so humans could live on it forever. And I am looking forward to living forever on earth. I am sure this seems impossible, but after doing my own personal research of the Bible I learned that this is going to happen, and soon.

    (Psalm 37:9-11) “ 9 For evil men will be done away with, But those hoping in Jehovah will possess the earth.  10 Just a little while longer, and the wicked will be no more; You will look at where they were, And they will not be there. 11 But the meek will possess the earth, And they will find exquisite delight in the abundance of peace.”

    (Psalm 37:29) “29 The righteous will possess the earth, And they will live forever on it.”

    This is where I want to live forever.

    Where would you want to live until then? In a beautiful house or in a blast furnace?

    Heaven, of course, but the way things are going I'll be lucky to arise in the Terrestrial resurrection and receive its inferior, but still glorious, reward.
