Prophetic Vision of the Rapture - Courtesy of Elijah and a Chariot of Fire

Elijah was taken up to Heaven in a royal chariot of fire. (2 Kings 2:1-12) Even more mysterious, both Elijah and his servant Elisha, as well as the prophets, all knew it would happen that day! Did God order these events in such a way that they would provide prophetic implications for those of us today who are looking for His return?
