the ascension was 40 days after the resurrection. The resurrection is about the victory over death and the ascension is to the right hand of the Father-exaltation by his Father to the highest place.

He had a body again + His body went to heaven.

That was to finish it.

He had to go back to the Father to take place at His right hand.

This means that the Father and Son were reunited as God again.

Resurrection is being brought out of the grave to live again and never die. Ascention is going back up to the Father where He came from.

One followed the other, just like it was predicted.

Jesus was to go back to the Father just like it was predicted, and was necessary so that Jesus could be our Advocate, glory to God! Jesus is there interceeding for us! Folks, it just don't get any better than that!

the resurrection is the beating of death and the ascension is the accending to the heavens to be at the Father's side...Without the resurrection there could be no ascension...Jesus could not rule from above if He has not returned to life...we serve a Living God not a dead god. Jesus lead a pure sinless life so that at the end of it...death could not win...without sin there is no death therefore Jesus being the sacrifice died for us...beat death returned alive and then rose to the heavens where He works with His Father for our benefit...praise God

Jesus resurrection was when his body left the tomb and appeared alive to his disciples and others, never to die again. It speaks specifically to His victory over death.

Jesus ascension occurred about 40 days after His resurrection and took place just outside of Jerusalem near Bethany. It speaks specifically to His exaltation by His father to the highest place, the right hand of His father. Jesus ascension is the final aspect of His resurrection from the dead; His ascension to his original and rightful place in God

When we talk about Jesus' resurrection we are referring to his body being resurrected from the dead. Death has no power over him and he has conquered death forever.

By his ascension we mean the 40 days he spends on earth after his resurrection from the dead. After the 40 days he lead his disciples to Bethany outside Jerusalem and he ascended before their eyes into heaven and sits or takes his rightful place ate right hand of his Father.

His ascension into glory marks his final aspect of his resurrection.

I am doing this study with my family and is will be my second time doing this. this was my answer during the first study

the resurrection is the beating of death and the ascension is the accending to the heavens to be at the Father's side...Without the resurrection there could be no ascension...Jesus could not rule from above if He has not returned to life...we serve a Living God not a dead god. Jesus lead a pure sinless life so that at the end of it...death could not win...without sin there is no death therefore Jesus being the sacrifice died for us...beat death returned alive and then rose to the heavens where He works with His Father for our benefit...praise God

what hit home this time was that Jesus earned the right to return to His Father...He lived a sinless life in a sinful society...died a terrible death which he could have stopped at any time and returned from death...so that He could do as he wanted return to His Father on our behalf. All of this was done for us and I really feel I need to recheck my life for what I am doing for my Saviour.

The difference between Jesus' resurrection and his ascension was that Jesus was raise from the dead and ascension is that Jesus was God's right hand man. Even though that Jesus was resurrected, but he was fighting death after Jesus went to God and to be with him. Jesus had no sins in him, he was a son of God and he died for our sins so we can forgive him and to be with Jesus.

Q5. What is the difference between Jesus' resurrection and his ascension? How do the two fit together? In what sense is the ascension the completion of the resurrection?

Jesus' resurrection refers to His victory over death an event whereby His body (now immortal) left the tomb 3 days after His death and appeared to His disciples and others while Jesus' Ascension is when Jesus' immortal (resurrected) body was taken up into heaven in a cloud into His original and rightful place at the right hand of God. This event took place 40 days after His resurrection.

These two events fits together because sometimes in the New Testament they are combined together as Jesus being glorified, exalted or entering into His glory

In the sense that Jesus Christ has a rightful and original place where He has to be which is the presence of His father where no mortal body can be and where He will be glorified, He needed to resurrect in order to ascend to be exalted into the Highest place.

Q5. What is the difference between Jesus' resurrection and his ascension? How do the two fit together? In what sense is the ascension the completion of the resurrection?

Ans. The resurrection is his awakening from the dead and being seen by all and doing things in the body, where as his ascension is returning back to the Father and taken His rightful place. They fit together because in order to ascend He had to resurrect or better yet be glorified and then exalted.

Christ's resurrection is his bodily exit from the grave alive while ascension is leaving the earth and lifted to heaven where he is seated on the right hand of God.

The two fit together as they are the harmonious coming back to life after death, leaving the grave and ascending into heaven after fourty days.

That Christ would rise from dead was not enough until he returned to his father in heaven where he came from. Thus ascesion was the necessary end of the resurrection.

Jesus resurrection is Jesus raising from the dead and his victory over death.  His ascension is His entering Heaven to be seated at the right hand of the Father.  Jesus came to save us and conquer death and to return to the Father.  By ascending to Heaven He completed his task.

The difference of the resurrection and the ascension are these:

1) The resurrection is when Jesus rose from the grave to conquer death.

2) The resurrection was His last task to fulfill in His human form.

3) His resurrection was the 1st act, that people saw, that showed His holiness as the Son of God.

4) With His resurrection, Jesus fulfilled all of the Old Testament prophecies.

5) The ascention is Jesus returning to His heavenly place at the right hand of the Father. He is now in His full glory, no longer to have to swuffer in a human way.

 

These two actions fit together because they both show Jesus as the Son of God. He no longer has to hide His complete glory. He is now able to radiate His inner light. He is able to come to us as He did in the Old Testament when He showed Himself to the prophets.

 

The ascension in the completion of the Resurrection because the heavenly Jesus that came out of the grave is now returned to the Heavens under His own power. To me this seems like the ultimate completion to His life here on earth.

Jesus was resurrected from the dead, He then ascended to heaven. Jesus was raised from the dead and then raised to the Father.

The ascension is the completion of the resurrection because if Jesus did not go back to Heaven to prepare our place for us we would have nowhere to go after we died.

When Jesus was resurrected people saw Him and were able to talk to Him. But on his ascension we went to be in His rightful place beside the Father in heaven. The two fit together because Jesus wandered the earth for 40 days to show that we had conquered death. After He did that he ascended to the Father in heaven.
