What would you base your opinion upon? The Bible is not just mute on the fate of Elijah. You have to resort to extra-Biblical texts to discover the same for Enoch. It’s not as if they were assumed to have died the physical death that awaits us all and it just wasn’t mentioned.

I personally believe Enoch and Elijah will be the Two Witnesses of Revelation. There they will die the physical death that awaits all, and then be resurrected to the astonishment and fear of all the hostile world, that will have left them lying in the street unburied and celebrated. It’s odd to have to resort to speaking of future as history, but that’s the only way I can encompass the prophecy in conversation.

So, since this is so at odds with what I and many others believe and accept on faith, please elaborate. I’m very interested in learning your perspective.

Agreed. It can be no other way if one believes in Jesus Christ as king and saviour.
