The Gospel Accounts
• Christ’s Resurrection is the single most important event in all history.

Jesus’ Ascension
• The Gospel authors had a hard time putting this event into words.
• After spending time with some of his followers after his Resurrection, Jesus left this world to be with his Father in Heaven.
• This means all humanity now has the possibility of spending eternity with God in Heaven.
• Jesus can be more present to us now than before his Ascension.
