Tag Archives: Ascension on Jesus Christ

Among the great events of redemption, the ascension of Jesus Christ is often overlooked. We rightly glory in the incarnation, marvel at the cross, and rejoice in the resurrection. But the ascension can seem merely transitional, like a quiet epilogue, as though Jesus simply went away. Yet the New Testament presents the ascension not as Christ’s disappearance but as his coronation. The ascension is the public enthronement of the crucified and risen Son of God. It is the declaration that Jesus Christ reigns.
