A CHINESE racing driver has driven a Range Rover 4×4 car up the 999 steps and 99 hairpin bends to get to one of China’s most famous landmarks, the Heaven’s Gate Arch.
Ho-Pin Tung was told that his drive was ‘unheard of’ and ‘crazy’ but he still went ahead and did it.
In 1971 the rock band Led Zeppelin released a song called ‘Stairway to Heaven’ with the lyrics telling of a lady who was trying to buy a ‘Stairway to heaven’.
So often we hear people describing a place that they enjoy visiting and which means so much to them, as like being in heaven.
What is our perception of heaven?
Is it being in that special place, is it enjoying our favourite food or is it being with that special person?
The Bible talks a lot about Heaven as the eternal place, not built by human hands.
God so loved the world that he sent his son, Jesus Christ, to show us his love and give us eternal life.
Heaven can be a certainty for us if we will accept Jesus into our lives as our Saviour.
