Indeed. God didn't need this heaven and earth, we did. He doesn't change, we do. It's not about this heaven and earth, but the next one when we will be "home" with Him.

From Genesis to Revelation, Alpha and Omega - "all that there is" unfolds to that final cause.

Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature: For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether [they be] thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him: And he is before all things, and by him all things consist.

And he is the head of the body, the church: who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that in all [things] he might have the preeminence. For it pleased [the Father] that in him should all fulness dwell; And, having made peace through the blood of his cross, by him to reconcile all things unto himself; by him, [I say], whether [they be] things in earth, or things in heaven.– Colossians 1:15-20

God's Name is I AM.

To God be the glory!

Indeed.. in the "new" heaven and earth(Rev.) we (like God) may have no need of air to breath, water to drink and food to sustain us.. Heat to warm us, cool breeze to cool us, or entertainment to amuse us.. Space travel could be normal possible and exciting.. with no space ship even needed to protect and transport us..

The new H&E could be an ugh!.. "hoot"... Making "Star Trek" a cartoon.. and "Star Wars" primitive monkey shines... Home could be where ever we are.. And HELL could be a lack of all that.. imprisoned in a human-like body.. some-what as we currently are.. A virtual slave to grooming, upkeep, and entertainment... Oh! and gender.. Maybe gender will be a curse..

Yeah... "I'm guilty" of just having fun(here).. Woo Hoo..
