All Things Spiritual-Paul's Thorn

In 2 Corinthians 12:1, Paul reflects on his visions and revelations of the Lord, mentioning a man caught up in the third heaven over fourteen years ago. He explains that he heard unspeakable words from this man, but will not glorify himself. Instead, he will focus on his infirmities. The apostle begged the Lord to let go of this thorn, stating that his grace is sufficient for him. He chose to glorify in his infirmities, believing that the power of Christ would rest upon him. Paul's experience in the third heaven, known as paradise, is described as a place where God manifests his glory. It is important to remember that we are not capable of knowing all things of God, and it is our duty to seek a place there. The third heaven, called paradise, symbolizes that by Christ, we are restored to all the joys and honors we lost by sin.
