We read in Holy Scripture "In my Father’s house are many homes. If it weren’t so, I would have told you. I am going to prepare a place for you." (John 14: 2) Although each one of us is created by the same One Source, the development of each of our souls, and our adventures or misadventures on this earthly plane are going to inevitably pull each one of us in different directions, and with different outcomes; so that the end result is that each one of us is going to be at a different place of consciousness of knowing, who and what we really are, with correspondingly different accomplishments so noted.
This thus signifies that it doesn't make sense to believe that the spiritual plane that holds our souls and welcomes us into the eternal house of our Father, is going to be the same home for everyone, for such a construct as that, would invariably mean a cacophony of different vibrations so meeting which would correspondingly not sync well one with another. So then, our Father who is not limited by anything, has for our consideration provided us with homes that correspond best with our spiritual development, so that within that environment, we are comforted in knowing that the home that we thereby are situated in, is indeed the right place at that time for each one of us.
Far too many people wrongly buy into the binary belief, that life consists of either a heaven or a hell as being our final destination; but if it really was this way, that would be a cosmic injustice to each one of us. That is to say, none of us just simply goes to heaven, but step-by-step, home-by-home, we grow our way and thereby earn our way into the full sanctuary of our God in that heaven. Everything that we do does matter, and all that matters is recorded, and that which is recorded, must be accounted for, and that which is accounted for, must be answered to and that of which the answers fall short of the true essence of God, must be made whole, sooner or later, one way or another.
God is never the great punisher, but that which separated itself from God, through its free will, must in the skeins of time, reconstruct its essence so as to become part and parcel of God, once again. There are, after all, no mistakes in God, so it is therefore not possible for that which is wrong, to somehow magically to become right, without the necessary transformation that releases that darkness which taints that soul into Light. That is why there are so many homes in our Father's house, so that we have the necessary opportunity to properly reconstitute ourselves into the beings that we are supposed to be, so that when we go forth again and incarnate upon this planet or similar, we are better able to be a force of good for those that we interrelate with.
That which we prize the very most, necessitates trials and tribulations to obtain; and it is through those trials and tribulations, that we are afforded the opportunity to be that good and faithful servant, and by accomplishing this, then all will be well within our soul, and we will thereby have rightly earned the key to that One golden door.
