土地
圣经中的“地球”可以表示一个人或一群志同道合的人，就像在教堂里一样。但是它专门指的是人的思想外部或群体的一般思想。如果天堂和大地同时被提及，那么心灵的内在和外在都是有意思的-阅读创作故事时要注意的事情。 “地球”是一个通用词，可以看作是其他特定词（如地面，田野或花园）的容器。当他们从圣经中学习真理，思考问题并试图将其应用于生活中时，这些都意味着一个升序的人。该系列作品代表了成为美好和明智的方式。 “地球”和“地面”是可以双向使用的术语，例如在撒种的寓言中（马太福音13:4-8）既有好的地面又有坏的地面，但是“田野”和“花园”是指头脑正在向美好的方向再生。 在《启示录》中，“地球”一词既被用作地面，因为我们以其自然意义使用它，也被用作群体的意义。本书中的动作发生在精神世界的中部地区，人们首先去过那里，他们被整理了出来。那里既有邪恶的人，也有善良的人，有时在教堂的尽头，邪恶会在做出伟大的判断之前产生巨大的影响。这种精神境界的水平被称为“地球”，巨龙被降落在该“地球”上（启12:9），而星辰掉落在其上（启12:4）。吞没巨龙洪水的“地球”是指教会中那些仍然诚恳的人，他们轻视巨龙的虚假洪水（启12:15）。
