AMPLIFIED 2015 | 2 Corinthians 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, [only] God knows--such a man was caught up to the third heaven. [Luke 23:43] |
Bible Question: What is this third heaven? |
Bible Answer: Hi,The Bible indicates also in Psalm 148:4 a plurality of heavens.The first heaven is where we abide now.See Genesis 1:20 "firmament" is the name used for this first heaven.The second heaven is found in Genesis 1:14-17.This is what we refer to as "space". The third heaven is outside of this "space" or second heaven.In Revelation 21:10 New Jerusalem is going to come out of this third heaven "from God". I hope this is some help. |
