Topic: North (05/05/16)
In a much-loved country that I know there is no actual dividing line but there are differences in the people who live there. The differences are in accents, food, history and industries.

Accent reveals where you came from. People who are from the southern counties are usually described as posh while those on the other pole are described as common folk or rustics. Between the two extreme points is a middle area which is geographically known as the Midlands.

Conversely in the realm where all humanity lives there is a southern area called earth where humans walk, run and play. Plants and trees grow. Seas, rivers and lakes flow. Feet, wheels, and ships are the common modes of mobility.

If you leave this southern region of creation you rise to a noticeable and vast middle area which we call the heavens. It is immeasurably beautiful.

“The heavens declare the glory of God and the skies proclaim His handiwork” {Psalm 19:1}. The heavens that we see above us is inhabited by winged creatures, the moon, the sun and the stars. They were set in place by Our Great God {Psalm 8:3}. In this area, man cannot exist as he would on earth.

Further north is the Third Heaven which is The Kingdom where the Elite, The Almighty God dwells, rules and reigns. “The Lord has established His throne and His Kingdom rules over all” {Psalm 103:19}. Jesus Christ our Risen Lord lives there too. Mark and Paul write that “The Lord Jesus was taken up into heaven and is seated the right hand of the Father” {Mark 16:19; Ephesians 1:20}.

The Apostle John wrote what was revealed to him by Jesus Christ. He wrote that one day, beyond the restriction that we know as time, there will be Eternity. In this Eternal Kingdom, Jesus as the Risen Lamb will, with God Himself dwell with man and there will be no more death, crying or pain. Everything will be made new {Rev 21 -22}.

I learned some new information reading your article.

Your first sentence is a run-on because it combines two sentences together without a semicolon or a comma and a conjunction.

Yes, there were 2 or 3 areas where you needed some punctuation. Interesting little piece, however.

Strong ideas that you have expressed well, but you since you are well within the word limit, I feel you could have developed them a little more.
