    Explains the significance of the ascension of Jesus and why he needed to return to heaven and how that is important to us.

    Ephesians 1:15-23; Acts 1:1-11 This coming Thursday is a significant event in the Christian calendar, a day we often overlook.

    Learn what the Ascencion means to our mission as a church, and see how Luke uses it in both his books to motivate us towards action.

    “Mission: Possible” Luke 24:50-53 Let’s take our Bibles and turn to Luke 24…as you’re turning, what if I just started levitating? You’d be somewhat WOWED, eh? Imagine the disciples here in this text…Christ is giving his final words and mission, and then he starts rising. It’s the ascension! Let’s ...read more

    Luke’s account of Jesus’ ascension into heaven gives us a "goodbye" unlike any we have ever heard.

    “Good-bye! It was great visiting with you. Let’s keep in touch! See you in a few months!” Without bringing tears to the eyes of those of you who hate to say goodbye I want all of you to bring to mind a time when you were saying goodbye to family or friends. What were some of the things that you ...read more

    A hitherto hidden reality is now revealed.

    THE UNVEILING OF THE MYSTERY. Ephesians 3:1-12. The “For this cause” of Ephesians 3:1 follows Paul’s contemplation of the reconciliation accomplished by our Lord Jesus Christ (Ephesians 2:11-22).

    based on 2 ratings
     | 905 views

    “When these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh” (LUKE 21:28).

    SIGNS OF THE END. Luke 21:25-33. The apocalyptic imagery which Jesus employs (LUKE 21:25-27) might at first seem uncharacteristic of our loving Lord Jesus: but He stood in the long tradition of the prophets of old (e.g. Joel 2:30-32; Isaiah 24:19).

    PENTECOST. Acts 2:1-11. There is a time and a place for everything - or so the old folks used to say. There was a time for Christmas, and a time for Easter.
