The Ascension of Jesus has been defined as the Christian belief, reflected in the major Christian creeds and confessional statements, that Jesus ascended to heaven forty days after His resurrection, where He was glorified, exalted as Lord and Christ, sitting at the right hand of God.

Love Without Limits

Contributed by Kerry Haynes on Feb 19, 2017

Jesus challenges the common wisdom of his day, stating God doesn't want us to "love our neighbor and hate our enemy" but to love everyone, including our enemies. This is impossible without the love of God flowing through us.

Matthew 5:43-48 Love without Limits Did you know your body is not designed to carry anger for very long? Now don’t get me wrong: anger is a helpful emotion. It tells you something is terribly wrong. But God designed your body to resolve anger as quickly as possible and to move on. Resentment and ...read more

Contributed by Dr. Craig Nelson on Mar 1, 2023

Most people believe they will go to Heaven when they die. It is the great future promise of God to every human being. However, Jesus said He was the only way to get there.

When I was a young Christian, I heard a song written by Andréa Crouch titled "If Heaven Was Never Promised" that resonated deep in my soul about what my relationship with Jesus meant to me. The song spoke of the unspeakable joy found in Heaven with its streets of gold and Angels ...read more

Pray Without Ceasing

Contributed by Craig Condon on Oct 7, 2015

Luke included the Parable of the Unjust Judge to encourage the people. The parable is about waiting and not losing hope, heart or faith. If we pray earnestly, faithfully and regularly, Jesus will find faith when he does return.

Have you ever wanted something so much that you kept asking for it time and time again until you finally got what you wanted?

Go The First Ten Feet

Contributed by Thomas Clawser on Apr 8, 2017

Self-denial is to be lifted with Jesus—and the first ten feet of his ascent is on the Cross. You cannot reach for Jesus without letting go of the things you’re holding onto. Make it your passion to go the first ten feet with Jesus.

"When I am lifted-up," Jesus said, "I will draw all people to myself." And just in case you are tempted to interpret this up-lifted status to mean something glitzy, John sticks in a little commentary in verse 33 to make clear that the "lifting up" Jesus had in mind was the cross. Ultimately Jesus ...read more
