I think it would be difficult to explain something that doesn't exist.
One other thing that I find baffling about the concept of heaven is that the Bible says parents will be reunited with children that were taken by death. If the parents had an infant die, then the parents live to be in their 90's, would they really want to be given the infant when in heaven? Maybe some would, but I'm not sure I'd want to sign up for that program. Changing diapers at that age? NO thanks. I'll grant the Christians one thing, they excel at creative writing.

The only way that you could "experience" heaven is to be one of the 144,000 chosen ones who have been bought from the earth to rule as kings and priests with Christ. While initially, this might seem to be a source of dispair, remember that God made the earth for man and man for the earth and he made it to be a perfect paradise, without sickness, death, prejudicice or violence and he will see to it that it will again be that way soon.

Dear Jim, yes, heaven is beyonf the realm of time and space, it is infinite and never ending. but there is notonly a heaven but a Hell, and I wouldmlike to explain to you why
I was your average, person, a very “nice guy.” I loved my mom and dad, had a decent home, played little league, and even went to church. Whenever I thought about life after death I had no fears at all. After all, I believed in God and Jesus… and I thought I was a pretty good person. I felt that if anyone could end up in Heaven, I probably would. Then came the shock of a lifetime! Let me explain by asking you a couple of questions…
Have you ever lied (even once--fibs, white lies, etc.)? Ever stolen (anything--the value is irrelevant)? Jesus said, "Whoever looks upon a woman to lust after her, has committed adultery already with her in his heart." Have you ever looked with lust? If you have said "Yes" to these three questions, by your own admission, you are a lying, thieving, adulterer at heart; and we’ve only looked at three of the Ten Commandments.
What a shock! God didn’t see me as the “nice guy” I imagined myself to be… and he doesn’t see you that way either. Nothing you’ve ever done is hid from His holy eyes. Will you be innocent or guilty on the Day of Judgment? Listen to your conscience. You know that you will be guilty, and therefore end up in Hell. That’s not God’s will. He provided a way for you and I to be forgiven.
He sent His Son to take our punishment: "God commended His love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us." He was bruised for our iniquities. Jesus then rose from the dead and defeated death.
Your own so-called “goodness” can’t get you into heaven any more than mine could. Jesus is the only way to Heaven. He is the "Door," the only "mediator." There is salvation in no other name, so pray something like this: "Dear God, I repent of all of my sins (confess them). This day I put my trust in Jesus Christ as my Lord and Savior. Please forgive me and grant me your gift of everlasting life. In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen."
if you will repent and confess your sins and trust Jesus as Lord and savior, God will forgive your sins, then grant you everlasting life in heaven with him.
so examine yourself with those Ten Commandments, then lfee to the savior. God Bless

When you experience pleasure do you not lose the sensation of time-well it's similar in heaven.

You have been told over and over how to get to Heaven. I think it is time for you to start paying attention.

Learn meditation to experience timelessness. Then you will get a glimmer of the concept, Funny-guy.
Not that I believe in Heaven. This is merely theoretical.

There is no Heaven. People are making stuff up in their imaginations trying to define something that doesn't exist.

First you have to accept Jesus as your Lord and Savior. Then live your life doing His Will.
Then die.
