Jesus Came From Heaven

On the very rare occasion someone will claim that they have been taken into heaven for a brief experience of its grandeur. Examples would include people who claim to have had a near death experience; another example with be the founder of Islam, Mohammad, who claimed that on one occasion he was take from Earth to Heaven. But, Jesus claimed to have come down from His eternal home in Heaven, a claim which has never been made by the founder of any other world religion and evidence that Jesus was/is God because God alone dwells in Heaven eternally.
