Bible Question: How does this verse square with the Biblical accounts of Enoch and Elijah being taken up into Heaven? |
Bible Answer: Orangejay, I think you have to distinguish between ascension and assumption. Jesus ascended to heaven by His own power. Enoch and Elijah were assumed or taken up into heaven by God's power, not their own. Emmaus |
