       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. Jesus then had a soul—for his soul had to be somewhere while he was in the grave. And his soul re-entered his body, and he experienced bodily resurrection. Therefore, because of Jesus’ existence and his return to the Father, that’s one reason we know that Heaven is real, and a physical place at that. But Jesus also said that Heaven was real while he lived on the earth, for he said, “I am the resurrection and the life. Whoever believes in me, though he die, yet shall he live, and everyone who lives and believes in me shall never die” (John 11:25, 26, ESV). Here, he tells us that not only will he live forever, but anyone who believes in him will live with him forever. Beyond our Lord Jesus Christ we know there are other examples in the Bible, instances that show that Heaven is real. We could consider Stephen’s martyrdom.
