Meaning of Man Upstairs | Babel Free
Examples
“A rhapsodic inquiry greets us from the TV screen and the radio: "Have⟳ you talked to the Man Upstairs?" God is a friendly neighbor who dwells in the apartment just above. Call⟳ on him any time, especially if you are feeling a little blue.”
“"Oh, you know⟳, the Man upstairs has been good to this person." I kept on pressing for an explanation. Finally I was told, "Oh, you know⟳, the Man upstairs—He's the One who answers prayer."”
“God can't be found in unsanctified imaginations or in the caricatures of pop culture. He is not The Man Upstairs. He does not "help⟳ those who help⟳ themselves."”
