       But really, it would also appear that Paul himself was caught up into Heaven later in his life, as he told the Corinthian church in 2 Corinthians 12. There, he said of the man caught up into Heaven, which was probably himself, that “he heard things that cannot be told, which man may not utter” (12:4, ESV). And, so, while we try to describe things about Heaven as best we can, the reality is that there is much about Heaven we cannot describe or explain to our finite minds. So, now that we’ve established that Heaven is real, let’s ask the question, “Why do all people have to physically die?” Why is it that when we become a Christian and we are forgiven of all of our sins, why is it that at that point we just don’t live forever in our current bodies? How come even though God has declared us not guilty for all accounts of sin do we still have to die in this life? Well, we know that when God says something, he always follows through, right?
