KJV ORIGINAL
I knew a man in Christ above fourteen years ago, (whether in the body, I cannot tell; or whether out of the body, I cannot tell: God knoweth;) such an one caught up to the third heaven.
Close to the original. Clear modern English.
✦ MADE SIMPLE
I know this guy who follows Christ — this happened like fourteen years ago — and honestly, I can't even tell you if he was physically there or if it was some kind of spiritual experience. Only God knows for sure. But somehow, this person got taken up to the highest level of heaven.
⚡ THE BOTTOM LINE
Sometimes God gives people experiences so wild that you can't even explain if they were real or spiritual — only he knows the difference.
