Jesus spoke in parable. And now you speak not the parable revealed, but hidden. You may as well say also that Jesus was a little lamb whose fleece was white as snow. But how can you explain that He is rather the Lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world, if you speak of clouds and years?
What good is it if you quote the scriptures, but do not understand them?

“Do you not understand this parable? How then will you understand all the parables?"
The "running" is a way of saying living our life.
Luke 21:36 36Be always on the watch, and pray that you may be able to escape all that is about to happen, and that you may be able to stand before the Son of Man."
To explain a riddle with a riddle, is to speak in tongues that need interpretation. There is no edification. Nothing is taught unless the answer is given.Jesus didn't always speak in parable. You say he does not understand the Scriptures but that is your assumption. How does speaking of clouds and years mean you cannot speak of the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world?
No, certainly not. They are the same. Enoch and Elijah are of the dead in Christ, who died prior to Christ sending the Holy Spirit and the ability to be born again of the spirit of God (meaning to be "alive when He comes"). They are of the first resurrection.Does any who oppose the rapture, oppose God removing Enoch and Elijah from the earth without seeing death?
Who hates the Truth of the rapture more than satan and demons??

But all things are a [parable] manifestation of things on high. The language of Truth, is spirit.

Your definition of a parable or what is to be taken literally, is of the world. But if we know that God created the world out of nothing, aside from Himself, then we know that it is [all] a parable from the Lord.Your first sentence means nothing. As I said, Jesus didn't always speak in parables. And speaking of the rapture is not speaking in riddles.
All things are not a parable. Just because the language of Truth is spirit doens't mean it isn't to be taken literally.
Chapter and verse that proves Enoch and Elijah died.
