“Ascension of the Lord - Painting by Dino Carbetta”…

Luke 24:46-53 narrates "The Ascension of the Lord." Jesus reveals his resurrection to his disciples after three days of suffering and stresses the significance of spreading the message of repentance and forgiveness of sins in his name to all nations, starting from Jerusalem. He reminds his followers that they are witnesses to these events and assures them that he will send his Father's promise upon them. However, he instructs them to stay in the city until they receive power from above. After blessing them, Jesus ascends to heaven. The disciples enthusiastically return to Jerusalem, continuously praising God in the temple. The Ascension signifies that although Jesus may not be present in a specific location, he is always among us. We have an Advocate who defends and guides us through life and a community that lives out their faith with us in our daily lives. Together, we reveal the lordship of God's love to the world through the Risen Jesus Christ, who ascended to heaven and advocates for us. "And when I am lifted from the earth, I will draw all people to myself." The lifting up of Jesus on the cross signifies and announces his ascent into heaven, which begins it. Jesus Christ, the only priest of the new and everlasting Covenant, "entered not into a sanctuary made by human hands... but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God on our behalf." He is the center and principal actor of the liturgy that honors the Father in heaven. Christ is seated at the right hand of the Father, signifying the inauguration of his kingdom and the fulfillment of the prophet Daniel's vision regarding the Son of man. "To him was given dominion and glory and kingdom, that all peoples, nations, and languages should serve him; his dominion is an everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away, and his kingdom one that shall not be destroyed." The apostles became witnesses to the "kingdom will have no end."
