This week, Pastor John explores the significance of Ascension Sunday, reflecting on the moment Jesus ascends to heaven and the subsequent question posed to the disciples: "Why are you still looking up?" He emphasizes that the ascension is not about Christ's absence, but rather His exaltation to the right hand of God and the subsequent gift of the Holy Spirit. Pastor John explains that while believers rightfully long for Christ's promised return, they are called to live actively in the present. He highlights that the ascension confirms Jesus' identity, fulfills His earthly mission, guarantees His intercession for believers, and confirms the coming of the Holy Spirit, which empowers the church to be His witnesses on earth.
