       Each of us has a soul, and not only that, but we have eternity in our hearts. We know there is more than what we see around us, and we long to fill that God-shaped vacuum that is in our hearts. It just doesn’t feel right for us to believe that this is all there is—that life is meaningless, and that nothing really matters. All this being said, so how do we know that Heaven is real? To answer this question, let’s consider our Lord Jesus Christ. We know that he lived on the earth, some 2,000 years ago. And where did he come from before he was on the earth? I mean, after all, he is God, right? So, he had to be somewhere. Well, the Bible tells us that Jesus came from Heaven. He was born of the virgin Mary, and he lived on the earth for some 30 years. We know that he was crucified, and then the Bible makes it clear to us that he rose from the grave—he came back to life. So, the Bible says that Jesus left the comfort of Heaven, became a man, lived on the earth, died, and then rose back to life. And not only that, he went back to Heaven.
