[OLD REGGIE]

I am sorry. You are correct. I meant that the OT saved could not go to the heaven where God was, till Jesus died. They went to Paradise. Do you agree with this?

Well, heaven wasn't empty was it?

2Kings 2:
[1] Now when the LORD was about to take Eli'jah up to heaven by a whirlwind, Eli'jah and Eli'sha were on their way from Gilgal.

I was actually responding to the statement by tHe AnTiLiB that "there was no heaven . . .".

A good Catholic would know that the RCC teaches there was a heaven. ;-)

1 Maccabees
[58] Elijah because of great zeal for the law was taken up into heaven.

[tHe AnTiLiB]

Then what exactly did Christ die for?
