“No one has ascended into heaven, but He who descended from heaven: the Son of Man.” John 3:13 NASB No one – Apparently Yeshua was mistaken. Everyone knows that good people go to heaven when they die. Everyone knows that Moses and David and Peter and all the saints of the Church are in heaven…
An interview concerning “What You Must Believe,” an article I wrote in response to a South African publication. It was a great conversation. Please tune in.
