On that plane of existence their is no possibility of deception.
(My thought, and most of my other contentions , are my way of trying to unify humans and get beyond our differences. That includes christians, hence my use of the term "heaven" 🙂 )

[b]"Could you tell the forum what you experience of God is?"
So glad you asked!
Once upon a time, after I responded to God's call, I believed, and then trusted in what Jesus did on the cross on my behalf. At that moment a spiritual transformation occurred. The Spirit of God entered into my heart.

If so , how do you know your experience isn't false?

I'll revise it.
First of all, it wasn't a mammal. Of course there are organisms which can asexually reproduce. Mammals are not one of them without scientific intervention (and that was a rabbit, not a human or even primate).
Secondly...

I agree that it is possible. If it were to happen it would probably be a mutant i.e. not a normal human.
All things considered, however, I find it vastly more likely that Mary cheated or perhaps was raped while unconscious or something.
Originally posted by karoly aczelThe thought that came to mind when you mentioned a "heaven dimension" is related to one of those things you can stack CDs on around a central post.
Touche.
As we arise out of our slumber, I will try to provoke with whatever words are at my disposal.
Just because I've been to a different "plane",I'm still not sure what to call it exactly. Prolly doesn't matter
Each CD is similar to the one above and below it, but it is separate and different. Going along the CD will never get you to another CD...but if you go DOWN or UP...along the "heaven dimension" you might reach a new three dimensional reality similar to our own but separate.
