Mobile Ed: TH245 The Ascension of Christ (2 hour course)
Digital Logos Edition
Overview
In this course Patrick Schreiner walks through the important and often neglected event in Christ’s life called ascension. The ascension is a key plot moment, a hinge on which Christ’s work turns. It not only authorizes and endorses Jesus’s work, but continues Christ’s three roles as prophet, priest, and king. So why don’t we hear about it more? Why did Christ need to ascend? What happened when Jesus ascended? Does the Bible put great weight on this event? Schreiner will answer these questions as you learn about the ascension of Christ.
