Schreiner Patrick - The Ascension Of Christ - Paperback

Binding: Paperback
Description: It's essential to the Gospel but we rarely talk about it. The good news of Jesus includes his life death resurrection and future return - - but what about his ascension? Though often neglected or misunderstood the ascension is integral to the gospel. In The Ascension of Christ Patrick Schreiner argues that Jesus work would be incomplete without his ascent to God's right hand. Not only a key moment in the Gospel story Jesus ascension was necessary for his present ministry in and through the church. Schreiner argues that Jesus residence in heaven marks a turning point in his three - fold offices of prophet priest and king. As prophet Jesus builds the church and its witness. As priest he intercedes before the Father. As king he rules over all. A full appreciation of the ascension is essential for understanding the Bible Christian doctrine and Christ's ongoing work in the world.
