I have to say that I agree with this almost completely. I found it a joy to read actually.

The only difference I have is one the very last word:

I think we are going to spend eternity on a new earth. (Isa 65:17; 66:22; 2 Peter 3:13; Rev 21:1) (note the new heavens in this referance I think refers to the sky... as in where the stars and planets are.). I challenge anyone to show a scriptural basis to say we are going to spend eternity in heaven... its just not in there!

I also think that the idea that we will be living on a new (renewed) earth in new (renewed) physical bodies lends weight to the idea that we ARE wholistic creations consisting of a united body/soul/mind/spirit... and that these things are not separate.
