Most people have trouble believing in the Power of GOD. So they look for excuses to support their weak faith in an Omnipotent GOD. They can look straight at a verse with all its power exposed and then come to a condescending view of GOD. Therefore they will conclude that mansion can't be planets they must be bodies. But examine the context of the scripture. Is a place (Mansion) or a thing (body) being discussed?

Joh 14:2 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.
Joh 14:3 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.

The first words overlooked are "if it were not so, I would have told you". Jesus is saying "if there were NOT many planets (manions) I would have told you that yours was the only one". But He did not tell them that Earth was the only Mansion.

Now notice he can't be talking about a body because He is NOT talking about a THING. He is talking about a PLACE and even in context uses the word PLACE. I go to prepare a thing or a place? At the pre-trib Jesus is going to take us to one of those PLACES and not one of those THINGS. In the heavens there are many of these PLACES and he went to get one ready for us. He did not go to prepare THINGS; He went to prepare one PLACE.

There is no scripture in the bible of God or Christ taking us to other planets. This is just conjecture on your part. It does say that New Jerusalem will come down to earth and God will tabernacle with his people. We are the tabernacles of God. Read Paul, Ezekiel, Christ, etc.

One day we will all celebrate the Feast of Tabernacles together.

Not other planets, but just to ONE planet (one place) which will be our temporary new home after the pre-trib rapture.

Joh 14:2 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.
Joh 14:3 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.

I am curious, what do you think this PLACE is where we will be taken? And where do you think it is. You say the New Jerusalem will come down. Question: COME DOWN FROM WHERE?

Come down from heaven.

Rev 21:2 Then I, John, saw the holy city, New Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.
 Quoting: Achduke7


Are the planets in heaven?
