The boy who came back from heaven was full of malarkey — and he’s finally fessed up to it.

A best-selling novel about a 6-year-old’s trip through the afterlife while he was in a coma was nothing but one kid’s desperate cry for attention, according to the Christian website Pulpit and Pen.

“I did not die. I did not go to Heaven,” Alex Malarkey, who is now a teenager, wrote in a statement. “People have profited from lies, and continue to.”

Malarkey’s heartwarming book — titled “The Boy Who Came Back From Heaven” — will now be pulled from shelves by major Christian publisher Tyndale House after he recanted his testimony earlier this week, the Washington Post reports.

The novel was first published in 2010 and described what the youngster was going through as he sat in the hospital, paralyzed from a near-fatal car crash. Following the 2004 accident, he awoke after spending two months in a coma and began telling stories of “miracles, angels, and life beyond this world,” according to his novel.

“I said I went to heaven because I thought it would get me attention,” Malarkey admitted. “When I made the claims that I did, I had never read the Bible. People have profited from lies, and continue to. They should read the Bible, which is enough. The Bible is the only source of truth. Anything written by man cannot be infallible.”

Marlarkey’s statement was deeply rooted in his religious beliefs, which was what ultimately made him confess, he said.

“It is only through repentance of your sins and a belief in Jesus as the Son of God, who died for your sins (even though he committed none of his own) so that you can be forgiven may you learn of Heaven outside of what is written in the Bible,” Malarkey explained. “Not by reading a work of man. I want the whole world to know that the Bible is sufficient. Those who market these materials must be called to repent and hold the Bible as enough.”
