The coming May 9 is Ascension Day in the Christian Calendar; the following Sunday, May 12, is considered Ascension Sunday. While such a day is often not recognized in evangelical traditions and particularly in American free church traditions, it is a vital experience that occurred in the life of Christ; thus, it is important for Christians to recognize and understand. One’s typical thought could easily minimize the Ascension as if Jesus ascending from the earth into the heavens was nothing more than a fascinating sight to behold; yet, the implications of Jesus’ ascension are vast and far-reaching. Why then is the Ascension important? Why should Christians remember it? And what are its implications? I intend to answer these questions with four key ideas.

1. The Ascension is important because it is biblical.

2. The Ascension means that Jesus presently understands his people.

3. The Ascension means that Jesus’ resurrection is absolute and inarguable.

4. The Ascension means that God is now human.
