How do people define the terms "Heaven", "Home" and "Exile"? How do these terms affect the daily lives of people? Although some people may define the terms "heaven", "home", and "exile" as three different places they are all the same place. "Heaven" may be considered by some to be a celestial place where one is taken to live with God when they die, but "heaven" is the world that we live on.

As Professor Richard Middleton pointed out, there is no need to view the globe of the Earth with the North Pole on the top and with the North American continent facing out as would be the popular belief of some. We can perceive our world to be "heaven" when we take into account all of the joy and beauty that is around us that people normally associate with the celestial "heaven". Also, as I stated above, "heaven" is defined as a place where you are with God. However, it is my belief that we are with God on this world.
