Stairway To Heaven

Jacob "dreamed, and behold, a ladder was set up on the earth, and its top reached to heaven,; and there the angels of God were ascending and descending on it" (Genesis 28:12; NKJV). To the ancients this kind of stairway symbolized access into God's presence. Jesus said to Nathanael in John 1:51 that he would "see heaven open, and the angels of God ascending and descending upon the Son of Man" (NKJV). Jesus of Nazareth, the Christ, is our avenue of access to God!
