1 | Actual bodies in heaven? | 1 John 3:2 | CDBJ | 214055 | ||
Greetings, Very well taken but I believe we should take these “one” at a time if we are to concentrate on truth. Let’s, if we may, focus on the Lord’s location for starters just using scripture to solidify the correct answer. I would like to suggest the following with regards to direction which is opposite of gravity, as it were. Acts 7:55-56 But being full of the Holy Spirit, he gazed intently into heaven and saw the glory of God, and Jesus standing at the right hand of God; 56and he said, "Behold, I see the heavens opened up and the Son of Man standing at the right hand of God." It wasn’t so distant that Steven couldn’t see and recognize Jesus but it was up. 2 Cor. 12:2 I know a man in Christ who fourteen years ago-- whether in the body I do not know, or out of the body I do not know, God knows-- such a man was caught up to the third heaven. 2 Cor. 12:4 was caught up into Paradise, and heard inexpressible words, which a man is not permitted to speak. 1 Thes. 4:17 Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air, and thus we shall always be with the Lord. Rev. 3:12 'He who overcomes, I will make him a pillar in the temple of My God, and he will not go out from it anymore; and I will write upon him the name of My God, and the name of the city of My God, the new Jerusalem, which comes down out of heaven from My God, and My new name. Rev. 12:5 And she gave birth to a son, a male child, who is to rule all the nations with a rod of iron; and her child was caught up to God and to His throne. Rev. 12:12 "For this reason, rejoice, O heavens and you who dwell in them. Woe to the earth and the sea, because the devil has come down to you, having great wrath, knowing that he has only a short time." Rev. 21:1 And I saw a new heaven and a new earth; for the first heaven and the first earth passed away, and there is no longer any sea. These are a few off of the top of my head that point to the fact that heaven is actually “up” CDBJ |

So where it is? Is it "up" from North America? Or is it "up" from South America? Is it "up" from the North Pole? Or is it "up" from the South Pole? If it is "up" from Israel, pointing to the constellation of Orion, then 12 hours later when Israel's "up" points to Andromeda, is heaven still in Orion? Or does it rotate circumorbital with Israel? Yes, these are serious questions. Where, exactly, is "up"? |

Greetings, I am in a position to learn something from scripture that I didn’t know or hadn’t considered. If my memory serves me right you are the one that refuted the scriptures that were posted. So please state your scriptural evidence with chapter and verse that proves that what was posted is in error; it is a Bible study not a theological inference group. 2 Tim. 3:16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: That the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished unto all good works.
