2 Cor 15
39 All flesh is not the same flesh: but there is one kind of flesh of men, another flesh of beasts, another of fishes, and another of birds.

40 There are also celestial bodies, and bodies terrestrial: but the glory of the celestial is one, and the glory of the terrestrial is another.

41 There is one glory of the sun, and another glory of the moon, and another glory of the stars: for one star differeth from another star in glory.

2 Cor
2 I knew a man in Christ above fourteen years ago, (whether in the body, I cannot tell; or whether out of the body, I cannot tell: God knoweth;) such an one caught up to the third heaven.

3 And I knew such a man, (whether in the body, or out of the body, I cannot tell: God knoweth;)

4 How that he was caught up into paradise, and heard unspeakable words, which it is not lawful for a man to utter.

The Bible only contains little on this you will just have to wait when more of the word of the Lord is restored!:)

I am sure there was more written on this but that was all that the Tradition of Men included.

Excerpt It is apparent that if God rewards everyone according to the deeds done in the body, the term heaven as intended for man’s eternal home must include more kingdoms than one. In speaking of man in his resurrected state, Paul tells of glories like the sun, the moon, and the stars (1 Cor. 15:39–41). He also speaks of the “third heaven” (2 Cor. 12:2). Jesus spoke of “many mansions” or kingdoms (John 14:2). Latter-day revelation confirms the teaching of the Bible on these matters and verifies that there are three general categories or glories to which the members of the human family will be assigned in the judgment following their resurrection from the grave. These are known as the celestial, terrestrial, and telestial kingdoms, of which the sun, moon, and stars....

Celestial - pertaining to the sky or visible heaven, or to the universe beyond the earth’s atmosphere, as in celestial body.

Terrestrial - pertaining to, consisting of, or representing the earth as distinct from other planets.

Telestial - There are no known uses of the word prior to Joseph Smith's prophecies. (aka Made up word by the author of fairy tales) LOL

>>but the glory of the celestial is one, and the glory of the terrestrial is another.<<

Um……….Duh!

>>I am sure there was more written on this but that was all that the Tradition of Men included.<<

So you don’t think the original scriptures were inspired by the Holy Spirit?

>>Latter-day revelation confirms<<

“But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed. As we said before, so say I now again, If any man preach any other gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed.” Galatians 1:8-9 2 John 1:9 Whosoever transgresseth, and abideth not in the doctrine of Christ, hath not God. He that abideth in the doctrine of Christ, he hath both the Father and the Son. 10 If there come any unto you, and bring not this doctrine, receive him not into your house, neither bid him God speed: 11 For he that biddeth him God speed is partaker of his evil deeds.

Was the “Latter-day” revelations taught by the apostles?

I don’t fall for those LDS fairy tales.

You didn’t show scripture that shows Adam and Eve ever lived somewhere other than on earth.

Must?

Why?

I'll even accept MORMON scripture for THIS answer.
