In 2 Corinthians 12:1-4.It says only God knows if this man was truly out of body or not.If Paul would have prayed more to God about the matter.Do you think he would have given him an out of body experience?That would make him know the difference?If it was just a vision?Or if it was literally what it seemed?:)

Many prophets of old had visions that they did not understand. Even Daniels prophecies about the 'last days' were not understood by him in all his lifetime. He died not knowing what the meaning of his vision was.

God does not owe us anything. He reveals things in his own due time and when the time is right to know the meaning. We are not Gods masters, we cannot demand things from him. He owes us nothing. We are privileged to know him and we should be humble when dealing with God. Paul was humble enough to simply say he didn't know what the vision was.

People say 'the bible was written by men'.....yes it was, but it was inspired by God and men penned the words but they were not the authors of those words as can be seen by the fact that they did not always understand what they were trying to describe. .
