I knew a man in Christ above fourteen years ago, (whether in the body, I cannot tell; or whether out of the body, I cannot tell: God knoweth;) such an one caught up to the third heaven. And I knew such a man, (whether in the body, or out of the body, I cannot tell: God knoweth;) How that he was caught up into paradise, and heard unspeakable words, which it is not lawful for a man to utter.
( 2 Corinthians 12:2-4 )
For the Christians out there who have capitulated with science and believe that the earth is adrift in an infinite universe, there is no third heaven, so what is Paul referring to?
