Can someone explain how Elijah went to heaven when Jesus says, "No one has ever gone into heaven except the one who came from heaven, the Son of Man." John 3:13. ? How can Elijah go to heaven without knowing Jesus, and does that mean that others can as well?
Well this was before Jesus came into the world in flesh. Before Jesus came to the world being righteous, obedient, faithful and your sacrificial offering made you favorable in the sight of God. Now, the only way to the Father in Heaven is through Christ Jesus our savior among the other things I said above and above those things loving one another
