'''The Ascensionof Christ''' refers to [[Jesus]] going up bodily into the clouds while His [[The Twelve Apostles|disciples]] watched, after first giving them instructions to wait in [[Jerusalem]] until He would send them the [[Holy Spirit]] ([[Pentecost]]). The ascension occurred 40 days after his [[Resurrection]]. He has promised to return the same way some day. ([[Acts (of the Apostles)|Acts]] 1:4-11). [[Paul]] discusses Jesus's bodily ascension in his letters. (Ephesians 4:8-10, and in Timothy 3:16)
