God created a place for Himself and then universes, and the Heaven and paradise which become the home of the saved. I think it is in our universe, by the Northern Star.

Or it is just one universe with a bunch of galaxies in it - and God created it all at some point in time.

Still I agree that there is a "place" in this universe known to the Angels as "heaven" with the "Holy city in it" - the throne of God.

My "assumption" here is that there is no charismatic official position on the multiverse one way or the other.

The multiverse is a result of fragmented perception, because of sin, there is actually only one universe.

Multiverse? Is God now a Marvel Character?

Are you aware of the marvel version of revelation fulfillment in the mass media?

Well how fun awesome is it to run with speculation. Yeah there is nothing what so ever in the word of God hinting at a multiverse. As one said the comics are all over this. The " God created a place for Himself". He has always been. Where He is has always been. The darkness is not part of God .. came with the fall.

As far as I can tell the multiverse is purely a theoretical construct that may not actually exist.

In lots of ways it can almost be considered a way of explaining things like Creation by giving the universe some of God's attributes like his infinite nature etc. I'm talking when it comes to issues like the origin of life and such. From what I can tell atheists are the most into it, even though it is very appealing to Science Fiction writers too.

The eternal heaven pre-existed the creation.

I've told this story before on one of these forums. It is the story of the old vicar and his young curate. The young curate asked the vicar, "What was God doing before He created the universe?" The old vicar thought for a minute or two then answered, "Creating Hell for the over-curious!"

I think it was Howard Storm who was given the idea that God is always creating.

Scientist are saying that there is something like another universe, on the other side of the big bang in which time is going the other way, backwards.

As philosophy would have it, God is not bound by time, so it is not like he is done creating, nor starting to create, nor waiting for anything to respond to his beginning it, except from our perspective. When he created the Bride of Christ, the Dwelling Place of God, he spoke her into existence, complete, with a word, but it has taken this many years of suffering, trial and living this temporal existence, to complete, seen from our point of view.

Time therefore has no particular significance in God's economy; 'before', applied to God, is about causation, not time.

As for the negative universe notion, it is fun, but that gives [balanced] proportion where, as I understand it, proportion did not exist. It would put the big bang at the edge of both universes, when (as I understand it) science says there is no direction we can point to and say, "it was over there."

In a place and time we can't begin to understand right now. Everything we think we know is just a drop compared to all there IS to know about God, the world and everything else. Right now we're like an ant trying to understand a YouTube video.

I think you give us way too much credit in that example, but I agree.
