THE ASCENSION OF JESUS
According to Luke, the last words of Jesus before He ascended to heaven:
And he said unto them, Thus it is written, and thus it behoved Christ to suffer, and to rise from the dead the third day:
And that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his name among all nations, beginning at Jerusalem.
And ye are witnesses of these things.
And he said unto them, Thus it is written, and thus it behoved Christ to suffer, and to rise from the dead the third day:
And that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his name among all nations, beginning at Jerusalem.
And ye are witnesses of these things.

And, behold, I send the promise of my Father upon you: but tarry ye in the city of Jerusalem, until ye be endued with power from on high.
And he led them out as far as to Bethany, and he lifted up his hands, and blessed them.
And it came to pass, while he blessed them, he parted from them, and carried up into heaven. [Luke 24: 46-51]

According to Mark: And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature.
He that believed and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believed not shall be damned.
And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues;…
So then after the Lord had spoken unto them, he was received up into heaven and sat on the right hand of God. [Mark 16: 15-19]
