Amen. This booklet Prepared by Rev. Gregory J. Beaumont, 2019: Please distribute without Cost. How to Pray the Rosary The most important "instruction" is to simply speak to God from your heart, with love! Before you begin, you might want to call to mind special intentions of people or special needs in your life and in the world to present to God. You may want to express thoughts of thanksgiving, or sorrow for sin, or you may want to simply praise Him and tell Him that you love Him. Basically, all you have to do to pray the Rosary is to call to mind something about Jesus Christ, his life, his words, his gift of salvation to us. Then pray one "Our Father," ten "Hail Mary's," and one "Glory Be." It’s just that simple and does not need to be any more complicated than that. The following "mysteries" are themes for you to reflect upon for each group of ten prayers. The rest of this booklet suggests Bible verses you can say alone or in a group before each individual "Hail Mary." It is a common practice to begin the Rosary with the Apostles Creed, and then one Our Father and three Hail Mary's, asking for Faith, Hope and Love, and concluding the entire rosary with the Salve Regina. The Coronation of Mary, Queen of Heaven and Earth The Rosary is a prayer of contemplation on Jesus Christ, drawing our attention to these "Divine Mysteries" of His life. 1.

The Ascension of Jesus Jesus Christ not only rose from the dead, but he rose all the way to his Father's house in heaven. Jesus was giving final instructions on the Mount of Olives to his followers when he rose on a cloud to heaven. Two angels instructed the amazed crowd that Jesus had been taken away to heaven! They added that he would return to earth in like manner someday ( Acts 1:9-11 ). The ascension of Jesus led the throng of followers to break into worship - glorifying their risen Lord! Since that glorious day, the risen Christ sits on his throne reigning supreme over creation.

  • Resurrection and Ascension of Jesus Christ Luke 24
    Lesson 59 Resurrection and Ascension of Jesus Christ Luke 24 “Believe in the Son of God, that he will come to redeem his people, and that he shall suffer and die to atone for their sins; and that he shall rise again from the dead, which shall bring to pass the resurrection, that all men shall stand before him, to be judged at the last and judgment day” (Alma 33:22). “He is Not Here” After the day of the Sabbath when Mary Magdalene and other women came to the Savior’s tomb on Sunday morning, they found the body of Jesus gone. Two heavenly messengers reminded them that Jesus had spoken to them about his death and Resurrection while they were in Galilee. At that time He had testified, “The Son of man must be delivered into the hands of sinful men, and be crucified, and the third day rise again” Luke 24:1-7; Matthew 17:22-23 (1) “Go Quickly” “…tell his disciples that he is risen from the dead; and, behold, he goeth before you into Galilee; there shall ye see him; lo, I have told you. Matthew 28:7 Mary Magdalene, and Joanna, and Mary the mother of James, and other women that were with them, and told the things to the disciples Luke 24:9-10 (1) Mary Magdalene Mary Magdalene seems to have served in a leadership capacity and had a prominent role in serving the Savior and a close association with Him.

  • The Ascension of Jesus and the Descent of the Holy Spirit in Patristic Perspective: a Theological Reading Keuy M
    EQ 79.1 (2007),23-33 The ascension of Jesus and the descent of the Holy Spirit in patristic perspective: a theological reading KeUy M. Kapic and Wesley Vander Lugt Kelly Kapic is Associate Professor of Theological Studies at Covenant College, Lookout Mountain, GA, and Wesley Vander Lugt is an MDiv. student in the same college. KEY WORDS: Ascension, Pentecost, Christology, Pneumatology, Patristics, Trinity. A woman we know recently recalled a powerful memory from her childhood in the early nineteen seventies. Her parents visited a large church in southern California to see an Easter play, and near the end of the drama this little girl witnessed, with a mixture of fear and delight, how Jesus, who was hooked up to a thinly disguised wire, was pulled up into the ceiling. What was all of this about? Why did Jesus go, and how could that possibly be a good thing? Such questions, however, are not reserved to children growing up in the Jesus move­ ment. Since the New Testament clearly testifies to the ascension of Jesus, theo­ logians throughout the ages have struggled to grasp its significance for those left behind. Scripture is replete with the antithesis of descent and ascent, and these bibli­ cal motifs have been indispensable hermeneutical devices throughout the his­ tory ofthe Christian Church. Following the lead of some early Church Fathers we will attempt to show how they employed the descent-ascent motif as a guiding framework for an exploration of the relationship between the ascension of Jesus and the sending (descent) of the Holy Spirit.

  • THE ASCENSION in the TEXTUAL TRADITION of LUKE—ACTS I. Introduction
    CHAPTER NINE THE ASCENSION IN THE TEXTUAL TRADITION OF LUKE—ACTS I. Introduction: The Ascension in the New Testament 131 New Testament passages that offer a narrative description of the ascension of the risen Christ as “an observable incident,”1 that is, as a physical, visible transfer from earth to heaven, are extremely few; those passages that refer to the ascension as a theological event, with- out specifying its temporal or physical aspects, are slightly more numerous; and those that assume the “heavenly abode” of the risen Christ without reference to an ascension at all are the most numer- ous. These data are well known2 and hardly require documentation, though a brief summary will provide the necessary introduction for this study. The exalted Christ. In the last category listed above are a number of passages that mention Christ’s resurrection and then affirm his heavenly, exalted position at God’s right hand, but with no refer- ence to an ascension: Acts 2:33–34 (cf. 2:25); 5:31;3 Rom 8:34; 10:6; Eph 1:20–1; 2:6; Col 3:1; 1 Thess 1:10; 4:14–16; cf. 2 Cor 4:14. A similar set of passages refers to the exalted Christ, with his death— but not the resurrection or ascension—mentioned in the context: Phil 2:8–9; Heb 1:3 and 13; 7:26; 10:12; 12:2. Finally, though still in this same category, are passages that refer merely to Christ’s 1 This is C. K. Barrett’s apt phrase in The Gospel according to St.

  • To Know Christ . . . and to Make Him Known
    To Know Christ . and to Make Him Known Wilmington, North Carolina www.templebaptist.us Dr. Mark E. Gaskins, Senior Pastor (910) 763-3351 The Lord’s Day, June 2, 2019 © 2018 Taken Up and Coming Back Acts 1:1-11 On the Christian calendar, this past Thursday, May 30, was Ascension Day. That’s the day that marks how forty days after he rose from the dead, Jesus ascended into heaven and sat down in glory at the Father’s right hand. So that’s what we’re focusing on this morning. For whatever reason or reasons, through the years we Baptist Christians have not put much emphasis on the ascension of Jesus. I’m not sure that I ever even heard a sermon on the ascension of Christ as I was growing up. As a young minister, I did hear one older minister talk about a sermon he had preached on the ascension. And as far as my own preaching and teaching, up until the past seven years or so, I’ve usually dealt with the ascension as part of the larger Easter story rather than specifically focusing on it and its theological significance. My pastor friend Dr. Chris Alford has described his experience as the ascension being treated “as a kind of peculiar footnote to the life and ministry of Christ” rather than “a critical part of the salvation story and enormously important to our understanding and practice of the faith.” Two ancient Christian confessions of faith (the Apostles’ Creed and the Nicene Creed) expressed “the rule of faith” or “the rule of truth”—the central essential affirmations about who Jesus is and what he has done.

  • CPC Advent 2020 a Journey with Jesus Through Luke
    CPC Advent 2020 A Journey with Jesus through Luke Week 1: November 29- December 5th ​ Reading: Luke Chapters 1-8 ​ Yahweh is gracious, Yahweh saves by faith! The Gospel of Luke is the third canonical Gospel, which tells of the origins, birth, ministry, atonement, death, resurrection, and ascension of Jesus Christ. Sixty percent of Luke’s Gospel is unique, meaning the accounts of the birth of John the Baptist, Jesus’s childhood and pre-ministry, a travelog about Jesus’s journey to Jerusalem, material on the post-resurrection appearances, the Emmaus road, and Jesus’s ascension into Heaven is only found in Luke. One writer puts it like this: “These events constitute not just history but salvation history, the entrance of God’s salvation into human history through Jesus and his messianic community.”1 ​ In your reading of Luke chapter 1-8 this week, you will learn about Gabriel’s proclamation and the actual births of John the Baptist and Jesus. You will also read about Jesus’s childhood years, his baptism, how he was tempted, the beginnings of his adult ministry and the naming of the twelve apostles. There are so many things we could talk about in these chapters but we are going to focus primarily on how Zachariah and Mary each responded to God’s promises. Zachariah Starting with John’s Story: Zechariah was one of eighteen thousand estimated priests during this time who were divided into twenty-four divisions. Each priestly division was responsible for assigning the priests for two weeks a year. Those who served were chosen by lottery.

Some of the acts of some of the apostles are recorded in the book. THE AUTHOR. Luke, a Gentile, is generally accepted as the author of the book of Acts for several reasons. • The writer addresses the book to "Theophilus" and refers to his "former treatise" (Acts 1:1). The identity of Theophilus is not known, but the former treatise also addressed to Theophilus is the Gospel of Luke (Luke 1:1-4). • Medical terms in a technical manner are used in both the Gospel of Luke and Acts. Paul calls Luke the "beloved physician" (Col. 4:14). • Luke was a companion of Paul (Col.

  • The Ascension Is More Than a Footnote by Bishop Kenneth Untener
    The Ascension is more than a footnote by Bishop Kenneth Untener Seventy-three years ago Lindbergh crossed the Atlantic by plane. A short while later he returned and was given a hero's welcome, making appearances all over the country. Eventually there came a time when he stopped doing this and retired to his own quiet life. Nearly 2,000 years ago, Jesus crossed through death to the other side. He returned and made appearances in Jerusalem and in Galilee. Eventually there came a time when he stopped doing this and retired to a quiet life in heaven. As tempting as it might be to draw such parallel, it won't work * not even close. When we examine the reasons why, we'll learn something about the Ascension. One Single Event In the creed we say, "I believe in Jesus Christ . he died, and was buried . rose again, ascended into heaven . I believe in the Holy Spirit." These elements all make up one single event, and each is essential to what Jesus accomplished through the cross. Jesus died a full, complete, and total human death. He was beyond resuscitation. The this-side-of-death stage of his human existence terminated, forever (just as, when he grew up, his boyhood stage permanently ended). Jesus was buried. Jesus was placed in an identifiable tomb (not a common grave), and placed there by an identifiable person (Joseph of Arimathea). Three of the four Gospels note that this was witnessed by Mary Magdalene and at least one other woman disciple. Jesus went through death and rose again to a new and different kind of human life.

But they were terrified and affrighted, and supposed that they had seen a spirit. And he said unto them, Why are ye troubled? and why do thoughts arise in your hearts? Behold my hands and my feet, that it is I myself: handle me, and see; for a spirit hath not flesh and bones, as ye see me have. And when he had thus spoken, he shewed them his hands and his feet. And while they yet believed not for joy, and wondered, he said unto them, Have ye here any meat? And they gave him a piece of a broiled fish, and of an honeycomb. And he took it, and did eat before them. And he said unto them, These are the words which I spake unto you, while I was yet with you, that all things must be fulfilled, which were written in the law of Moses, and in the prophets, and in the psalms, concerning me. Then opened he their understanding, that they might understand the scriptures, And 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.
