The kindom of the father is spread out upon the earth and men do not see it.
To me this means the potential for living in heaven or hell is upon us all now and has always been so and is so for us as earth bound humans and beings.
contrary to heaven or hell as a place you go only after you as a human dies. What you create here of yourself persists as your being after death.
Are there anything in the Christian religions of this? and what do you guys think about it?
The kindom of the father.

I think that Matthew is a truer expression of the Christian view on this matter than Iammyaspectofus.Matthew 6:19-21 wrote:[Jesus said,] "Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys, and where thieves do not break in or steal; for where your treasure is, there your heart will be also."
Examine everything carefully; hold fast to that which is good.
