The Ascension of Our Lord
As children, we were taught to be men and women of our word. Unfortunately, when do not honor our promises, both in small and large ways, we see the effects of these decisions play out in the world.
After Our Lord was crucified on the cross, it seemed like God broke His promise to restore Israel and sinful humanity. Gratefully though, God not only fulfilled His promises, but now commissions Christians to proclaim the Gospel to all nations, baptizing them in the name of The Father, and of The Son, and The Holy Spirit.
