In the book of John 3/13 it says only Jesus has ascended up to heaven, yet we read in Genesis 5/24 and Hebrews 11/5 that God took Enoch to Heaven, we know that Elijah also went to Heaven in a Chariot-- so can you explain this
Jesus is the only one to go to heaven as of now. By the way Jesus also went to Hell to preach to those that was there. I guess to give all a second chance.
Jesus is not God, He is the Son of God, this is the start of being a witness unto him, where to start... 1 John 4:9-15, Ephesians 1:19-20, Luke 18:18-19, 1 John 5:1-11, John 5:17-47, Hebrews 10:12, John 6:38, Matthew 16:13-17, Romans 1:9, 1 Corinthians 3:23, John ch 14, John 10:36-38, Matthew 24:36, John 8:54, John 10:17-18, Hebrews 1:1-9, Matthew 27:46, Mark 14:36, Matthew 10:40, Revelations 3:21, Mark 12:35-39, 1 Corinthians 8:5-6, Matthew 20:23, Revelations 1:1, 1 Thessalonians 1:10, 1 Timothy 2:5, John 1:18
Jesus in his human nature was the Son of God, he came as the Word, which in the beginning was with God, and was God, and became flesh. John Chapter 1.
Jesus was the first born and own Son of the almighty Father and living God. John 1:14; Col 1:15; Romans 8:32; Hebrews 1:8.
I believe with this confession of faith from times past: that Christ in his divine nature he is the Word, in this nature he would be the wisdom of God, the truth and the light, the firstborn of God's creatures, the brightness of the eternal light, the image of the invisible God the Father, as an immaculate reflection of divine purity and an express image of his divinity who in the beginning was with the Father in divine form, glory and purity.
John 1:3; John 14 1-12; Col 1:15; Heb 1:3; Rom 8:29; 1 Cor 1:29.
They are in a place called Paradise. Where we will go also after we die, to wait for the end of all. Then we will be judged for all we have done, either good or bad. So repent for all the bad that you have done so that you can stand spotless when you are judged. Rewards will be given out, some will get more than others. BUT, the main reward we get is to enter into Heaven.
They went to paradise, not heaven. Paradise is where we all go to be judged and then if we are worthy we then go to heaven. Remember, sometimes when it says heaven it means sky. Sometimes it talks about the second or third heaven.
Maybe a simple consideration is the difference between "taken up" by some means, or " I go " John 14:12, and carried up and received up of *HIMSELF*. Power to lay down *HIS* life, and power to take it up. *G* B U.
seeming discrepancy.

Two natures each with different names!
By Love.
My faith: In Jesus who is God's Lamb, who is in Heaven.

Is Abraham in heaven?
What about Joshua Ezekiel?
Mary?
Is Jesus in heaven alone with God?
What about Moses and Elijah on the the Mount of Transfiguration?
