This world is also called Heaven

It’s important to understand that for the Jewish people they had what they knew as their heaven and earth under the law.

Jesus came and fulfilled it, and their world or heaven and earth or Age was done away with and the new heaven and earth was now addressed in and by the Spirit ; which God writes on the hearts and minds of individuals that are his.
 
"Heaven is my throne; the earth is my footstool." This is not the same as what you have proposed here.

In Judaism, the term heaven was used to avoid misusing the name of God. Jesus even practiced this at times, for ex., the prodigal/arrogant sons parable.
? Scriptures please.
 
Lets say they are there as claimed (they are). then what?

If you are not familiar enough with the Bible or study tools to know about this, there is a lot of ground work to do. First things for sure!

I think you should learn to verify your research. Elevation or Peak is not a name for God.
