Believing Paradise on Earth? You Must Be Misled

11/02/2019 Christianity 13 Comments

It is evident that people from different religions have a very vague, sometimes weird and illogical, notion of where Heaven, or Paradise, is. Some of them think that Heaven is right here on earth, while others presume that it is elsewhere.

Definitely, those who believe that Heaven and Paradise are right here on earth are grossly mistaken. We can say that such a belief could either be a product of their wild imaginations or a mere result of the false teachings that they’ve heard from their respective preachers who are ignorant of the Bible.

Please, do not believe the concocted stories of such people about heaven. Believe in what the Bible says instead. The Bible is reliable; it is precise, complete, and definite.

Actually, despite the attempts of some people to discredit the Bible, nobody has yet succeeded in disproving it. Science, archeology, and history have proven that the Bible is authentic and it speaks of the truth. It is because it came from God.

Indeed, the Bible mentions that Heaven exists.

GENESIS 1:6-8 (KJV) says,


The firmament being referred to in the verses above is the heaven that we know; it is the vast space that we see above. But we have to understand that there are three heavens in the Bible, and the highest of these three is the third heaven, in which is what we call Paradise.

Paradise in the third heaven was attested by Apostle Paul.

2 CORINTHIANS 12:2, 4 (KJV) says,


The Apostle Paul was caught up (in spirit) to the third heaven, where Paradise is. It is the very kingdom that was promised by the Lord Jesus Christ to those who will be saved. The Bible also calls it the New Jerusalem. And it is not here on earth!

There is no truth to the claim of Apollo Quiboloy that the New Jerusalem is in Davao. That is not true; do not believe him!

But long before Quiboloy made that stupid claim, other religions like the Jehovah’s Witnesses have already been fooling many people that Paradise is here on earth.

That is a lie! Paradise is in heaven; it is the place where the throne of God is situated.

REVELATIONS 22:1-2 (KJV) says,


When John was caught up to the third heaven, he saw the throne of God, from where a pure river of water of life was flowing. He also saw that on the other side of the river was the tree of life.

According to REVELATION 2:7 (KJV), the tree of life is in Paradise.


Very clearly, from the account given by John, the throne of God, the tree of life, and the river of water of life are all in Paradise.

Are humans capable of determining how high the heavens are?

ISAIAH 55:8-9 (KJV) says,


The heavens are higher than the earth, according to the word of God. This pronouncement is something that has not been disproved by anybody until this day. In fact, until now, despite the sophisticated instruments in science, no scientist has ever come up with exact figures that would indicate how high heaven is from the earth. Even the Hubble Space Telescope failed to measure the distance of the heaven from the earth, not even the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) which is a more powerful telescope as it could reach as far as 13 billion light-years from the earth.

God said: “For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts higher than your thoughts.” That is why up to now, nobody has ever reached heaven.

Heaven and Paradise are not in this world. Remember what the thief told the Lord Jesus Christ while they were both suffering in the cross? The thief said, “. . . Lord, remember me when thou comest into thy kingdom.” (LUKE 23:42, KJV)

If it were true that Paradise is here on earth, why would the thief still ask Christ to remember him when He comes to His kingdom, or to Paradise?

If it were true that Paradise is here on earth, then, the Lord Jesus Christ should have corrected the utterance of the thief. He should have told the thief, “Don’t worry, both of us are already in Paradise.”

But instead, the Lord Jesus Christ answered the thief, “. . . Verily I say unto thee, Today shalt thou be with me in paradise.” (LUKE 23:43, KJV)

This clearly proves that Paradise is in another place. It is somewhere outside this world.

For you not to be misled, believe in the word of God. Do not believe the Jehovah’s Witnesses; do not believe Quiboloy. Paradise, or the New Jerusalem, is not here on this earth, and more so, it is not in Davao. That is a big falsehood.

Do not entertain incongruous stories about Heaven, or Paradise, which were invented by false prophets. It is best to believe in God and in His words, which are recorded in the Bible. If you do this, you will never be deceived and you will never go wrong. And most of all, you will never believe that Paradise is here on Earth because the Bible tells us that it is in the third heaven.
