    Son Ascension

    Contributed by Créteur Fabien on Sep 7, 2006
     | 2,224 views

    The Blessing Of The Ascension Series

     | 7,363 views

    Why did Jesus bear the burden of the cross, why the resurrection the breakthrough? So that we coud experience the blessing of God. The best definition of the Holy Spirit is Christ in us. Easter is over but the word and work of Jesus are still ongoing.

    Intro: Thus far we have examined the burden of the cross, the breakthrough of the resurrection, now we come to the blessing of the ascension. How can it be that I would say that Jesus, the embodiment of God leaving this planet would be a blessing? Because the bodily incarnation of God cannot ...read more

    This message shares one of the most important truth in scriptures. We know He rose but we also know which way He went during His departure.

    Introduction: Our Lord departed this world with an emphasis on evangelism. The Ascension teaches us several lessons: I. He was the Son of God. (Only God could ascend upwards without aid) II. He Kept His Word. (I am going to prepare a place) III. He Finished His Work. (He said;"it is ...read more

    Passing on the mantle: issues of succession in the church.

    THE ASCENSION OF ELIJAH. 2 Kings 2:1-12. I. ASCENSION The taking up of Elijah by the LORD prefigures the ascension of the Lord Jesus, and anticipates our own meeting with Jesus in the air. 1.

    The gates are open wide, never to close again.

    THE SONG OF THE ASCENSION. Psalms 24. David, the sweet Psalmist of Israel (2 Samuel 23:1) takes us on a journey from the Cross in Psalms 22, under the guidance of the Shepherd’s Crook in Psalms 23, to the Crown in Psalms 24. These three Psalms belong together, and all ultimately speak of ...read more

    In the book of acts we see the expansion of the gospel as the mission of the church. The book of acts is a continuation of what Jesus did and taught.

    I. Witnesses to all of whom Jesus is. (Not just things directly related to salvation) (v.8) A. The same Greek word for witness is the same word used for martyr in other passages of scripture. B. Witness to His death, burial, and resurrection. C. Witness to all that He did to heal the lame ...read more

    For 40 days Jesus proved Himself to be a resurrected human being. Not a ghost. Not a delusion. Not a figment of their imagination, but a real, living person who had pierced the veil of death victorious. Now His Coronation.

    In Jesus Holy Name May 22, 2022 Text: Acts 1:9-11 Redeemer Lutheran “Acts 1: Where Did Jesus Go?” Why did Jesus return to heaven? Why did He leave earth? These are the questions to be answered today as we continue our study of Acts 1. • Jesus remained with the disciples for 40 days, ...read more

    Solemnity Of The Ascension Of The Lord And Mother's Day

     | 614 views

    We are chasing a sense of enoughness. But it remains ever out of reach, and the effort and anxiety are burning us out. American "performancism."

    Martha Campbell said of flunking her final exams and the resulting report card, and what her parents did: "I got a no TV for a week in math, a no dessert for a month in history, and a just wait 'til your father gets home in social studies." My seminary Bible teacher said, “The ...read more

    The scripture references listed are for Ascension Day (May 13, 2021) and can be used for worship on May 16. These notes are based on the Gospel reading for Sunday, May 16: John 17:6-19.

    This prayer that John record is a prayer that Jesus prayed for his disciples. The part that includes us happens just after our text for this week. But we can be included anyway. Jesus is praying for us! What an amazing thing. Set this thought alongside the idea of Ascension. Jesus is leaving, ...read more

    Easter morning, like the Indian summer of the year, has a tender veil of loveliness and mystery about it which links it with both worlds, and makes it a peculiarly appropriate pattern of a life hid with Christ in God. A classic sermon by A. B. Simpson.

    "He showed himself alive after his passion by many infallible proofs, being seen of them forty days, and speaking of the things pertaining to the kingdom of God" (Acts 1:3). Easter morning is the beginning of a unique and most tenderly interesting portion of our blessed Saviour’s life. It is the ...read more

    The ascension of Jesus is just a continuation of His resurrection, & one is lacking without the other.
