  1. The ascension is not about Jesus going away. It's about Jesus taking his rightful place so that he might fill the world with his presence and power.
  2. If you struggle with doubt, take heart: You are not alone.
  3. If Jesus rose from the dead, then his claims about himself and his promises to humanity warrant serious attention and response.
  4. It can be argued that this scene sets a pattern for Christian activity on the first day of the week from that time until the present.
