Then He opened their minds to understand the Scriptures. He also said to them, "This is what is written: the Messiah would suffer and rise from the dead the third day, and repentance for forgiveness of sins would be proclaimed in His name to all the nations, beginning at Jerusalem. read more.
You are witnesses of these things. And look, I am sending you what My Father promised. As for you, stay in the city until you are empowered from on high." Then He led them out as far as Bethany, and lifting up His hands He blessed them. And while He was blessing them, He left them and was carried up into heaven.

Jesus knew that the Father had given everything into His hands, that He had come from God, and that He was going back to God.
Now grace was given to each one of us according to the measure of the Messiah's gift. For it says: When He ascended on high, He took prisoners into captivity; He gave gifts to people. But what does "He ascended" mean except that He descended to the lower parts of the earth? read more.
The One who descended is the same as the One who ascended far above all the heavens, that He might fill all things.
The One who descended is the same as the One who ascended far above all the heavens, that He might fill all things.
