Today is Ascension Sunday. This Sunday is the closest to the Thursday which is 40 days after the resurrection, which is May 5 this year. Since we have not observed this holiday before, we thought it was important to spend some time considering the ascension of Christ.
The ascension of Christ to Heaven is a pivotal event because it marks the shift from the preceding phase of Jesus' work to the new phase of it through the Spirit and apostles. It is also connected to the present ministry of Christ and His coming again to rule over His kingdom. We consider these truths in this message from God's word.
