Chris.
Here is the Invitation to Heaven from Jesus Christ to us. it is focused around those Words: Come Up Here. From this we realise that we go up to Heaven (not down). We realise that Heaven is a place to which True Believers are invited to by Jesus Christ, and we realise the great privilege to be at home with Jesus Christ forevermore.
