Whether it was in the body or out of the body I do not know—God knows. 2 Corinthians 12.2 May kilala akong isang Cristiano na dinala sa ikatlong langit, labing-apat na taon na ang nakakalipas. Hindi ko lang matiyak kung iyo'y isang pangitain lamang, o tunay na pangyayari; ang Diyos lamang ang nakakaalam.

Hindi ko lang alam kung iyon ay isang pangitain o tunay na pangyayari. Tanging Diyos ang nakakaalam. Luke 23.43 Jesus answered him, “Truly I tell you, today you will be with me in paradise.” Luke 23.43 Sumagot si Jesus, “Sinasabi ko sa iyo, isasama kita ngayon sa Paraiso.” When Jesus was dying on the cross and one of the thieves being crucified with Him asked Him for mercy, Jesus replied, “I tell you the truth, today you will be with me in paradise” Luke 23:43. Jesus knew that His death was imminent and that He would soon be in heaven with His Father. Therefore, Jesus used paradise as a synonym for “heaven.” The apostle Paul wrote of himself who “was caught up to paradise” 2 Corinthians 12:3.

John MacArthur explains: “To say that God dwells in heaven is not to say that He is contained there. But it is uniquely His home, His center of operations, His command post. It is the place where His throne resides. And it is where the most perfect worship of Him occurs. It is in that sense that we say heaven is His dwelling-place.” Kingdom Matthew 3.2 Kaharian Matthew 3.2 Matthew 3.2 and saying, “Repent, for the kingdom of heaven has come near.” Matthew 3.2 Ganito ang kanyang sinasabi, “Magsisi kayo at talikuran ang inyong mga kasalanan sapagkat malapit nang dumating ang kaharian ng langit!” My Father’s House John 14.1-3 Bahay ng Aking Ama John 14.1-3 John 14.1-3 “Do not let your hearts be troubled.
