What does the Bible say about the third heaven?

Answered in 1 source

The third heaven refers to the spiritual realm where God dwells, as described by Paul in 2 Corinthians 12.

In 2 Corinthians 12, Paul describes an extraordinary experience of being caught up to the third heaven, which he mentions as being in the presence of God. This third heaven, unlike our earthly realm, signifies a spiritual dimension where divine revelations occur. It's important to note that Paul uses this experience not to boast, but to affirm his apostolic credentials and the genuine nature of the revelations he received from Christ. In this state, he heard unspeakable words that could not be communicated to others, pointing to the sacred nature of his encounter with God.
