Wasn't quite sure where to ask this question but.........
Christ's physical body ascended to heaven. Did he go to a different plane of existence or did he rise to a place in the universe we haven't learned how to reach?
It seems like when the Bible was written, heaven was just up in the clouds stars/constellations etc. Hell was just considered down below I guess.
The Zoroastrians were able to predict the time and place of Christ's birth using astronomy. There may be some lost knowledge about how the universe works out there. As the ancient libraries of the world digitize their stock, new information is constantly being found about all kinds of topics. So many ancient libraries were raised to the ground even back in the days B.C. I'm sure we have lost some insightful information over the millennia.
It just made me wonder what my fellow Christians have heard or read that can shed light on the questions at hand.
Where is heaven? Is it a place or a state of being etc? Where is Jesus' physical body residing right now? Does the Father choose a physical form or does he just communicate through Christ in heaven? Will he just be present in our abiding souls?
I feel like that kid asking impossible questions in Sunday school.
