2 Corinthians 12:1

A Vision Of Paradise

¹ As it is necessary for me to take glory to myself, though it is not a good thing, I will come to visions and revelations of the Lord. ² I have knowledge of a man in Christ, fourteen years back (if he was in the body, or out of the body, I am not able to say, but God only), who was taken up to the third heaven.

From the Lord

It is I

Received from the Lord
