The Ascension of the Lord
Gospel – Mark 16:15-20
“…he took his place”. In the today’s Gospel we read this. Jesus ascended into heaven. There at the right hand of God he took his place. Because the reality of incarnation did not change anything in the Trinity. The second person became man and accomplished His mission. This did not add or subtract anything in the Holy Trinity. The unity and integrity of the Holy Trinity remained the same. No one took His place. Nothing changed in Him that He cannot take His place. It’s the same Person in the Holy Trinity. These four words explain a lot about incarnation. This really happened and it happened without changing anything in the Holy Trinity. Here we have another important message which Jesus Christ leaves before ascending into heaven. That’s to go to the whole world and proclaim the Good News to all creation. Ascension is about the truth that the Good News is to all creation and to the whole world. Let’s reflect: Ascension assures the Good News to all creation in the whole world.
