Jesus Is Taken Up Into Heaven. The Ascension.
The Disciples Commissioned.
Where did Jesus go? Will people on earth ever see Jesus again?
Acts 1:11 ... "Men of Galilee," they said, "why do you stand here looking at the sky? Jesus has been taken away from you into heaven. But He will come back in the same way you saw Him go."
Jesus' work on earth was done. He got to go back to heaven and reign with God, His Father. He promised to come back someday. If we, believe in Him, He will take us to heaven to live with Him.
When Jesus went to heaven, He was no longer a man. He had a heavenly body. He now could reign in heaven with God.
Jesus led His disciples out to the area near Bethany. Then He lifted up His hands and blessed them.
While He was blessing them, He left them. He was taken up into the heaven.
Then they worshiped Him. With great joy, they returned to Jerusalem.
Every day they went to the temple, praising God.
When the Lord Jesus finished speaking to them, He was taken up into heaven. He sat down at the right hand of God.
After Jesus said this, He was taken up to heaven. The apostles watched until a cloud Him from their sight.
While He was going up, they kept on looking at the sky. Suddenly two men dressed in white clothing stood beside them.
"Men of Galilee," they said, "why do you stand here looking at the sky? Jesus has been taken away from you into heaven. But He will come back in the same way you say Him go."
1. Jesus went to heaven.
2. Jesus reigns in heaven with God.
3. Jesus is coming back someday.
