The time has come for Elijah the prophet to go to heaven. He is sent by the Lord to a few cities before it is time. With him is Elisha, Elijah’s God given replacement. As Elijah begins his journey towards heaven he thrice gives Elisha, his beloved servant, a chance to remain behind. Thrice Elisha adamantly insists on remaining inseparable. As they walked and talk a chariot of fire lifted Elijah away and Elisha assumed the role. He parts the Jordan, heals a well, and deals with idolatrous thug youth in a way no one could forget.
