Did God ever send anyone back from heaven?
Except for sending his Son to earth.

Biblically? No.

Second-death experiences? Many claim it. I tend to doubt it. It just seems too mean.

Who ever died saved and was risen from the dead came back from heaven. Lazarus comes into mind.

Ah, now that's different. I get where you believe that.

I'm simply not sure Paradise is heaven, and lean towards Paradise as a place where believers go until Judgement Day, and then heaven descends when the old heavens and earth disappear.

But I can see your logic.

If you are referring to heaven as the place we go when we die, I am not aware of it, though some biblical scholar might prove me long. I don't think that's what heaven is, though.

If God sees a bigger purpose for a person on earth at that moment will he return a person? Was reading an article earlier that metioned that.

according to Paul there was


[h=1]2 Corinthians 12:2-4English Standard Version (ESV)[/h] [SUP]2 [/SUP]I know a man in Christ who fourteen years ago was caught up to the third heaven—whether in the body or out of the body I do not know, God knows. [SUP]3 [/SUP]And I know that this man was caught up into paradise—whether in the body or out of the body I do not know, God knows— [SUP]4 [/SUP]and he heard things that cannot be told, which man may not utter.

He had to have came back or Paul wouldn't have known him, it was probably Paul himself.

He could if he wanted, but I've never heard of it happening.

Isn't that saying God made a booboo when that person died?

Billy Bob had to come back and take the trash out... his wife would have been upset...

It's possible, but to be sure you'll have to ask the Lord once you get there.

Meanwhile, it's not something to worry about cause it draws out the nutjobs... stick with God's Word and grow in your relationship with the Lord.

Well if you read the Book of Revelation John went to heaven in the spirit.. His body never left earth but His Spirit went to heaven and came back..

Which heaven, the heaven in Genesis 1:1 which is the expanse of space which forms our physical world called the universe, or the firmament which was formed to cover the earth that in Genesis 1:8 which was called heaven by Elohim.
