The author of the Biblical Book of Revelation describes a city called New Jerusalem. David Berg believed and taught that this "Space City" (or Heaven) existed within a pyramid that measured 1500 miles long, wide and tall and was either travelling through space towards the earth or was located inside the moon.
Current Family leader Karen Zerby has reiterated these beliefs, and claims that both of Berg's theories on the Heavenly City's location are true simultaneously.
Berg has also explained that Space City is essentially an improved version of Paradise, created by Jesus after his crucifiction and resurrection. Berg used John 14:2 as Biblical support for this teaching.
Images from Family publications
