Purpose of Jesus coming to earth
Luke 19:10 For the Son of man is come to seek and to save that which was lost.
Matthew 20:28 Even as the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many.

6. review
Declaration
Matthew 27:54 So when the centurion and those with him, who were guarding Jesus, saw the earthquake and the things that had happened, they feared greatly, saying, "Truly this was the Son of God!"

7. review Christ is raised!!!
One of the men (angels?) spoke telling the women that Jesus is risen
He reminds them of what Jesus had told them in Galilee
Luke 9:22 saying, "The Son of Man must suffer many things, and be rejected by the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and be raised the third day."

12. Climax Often heard it said— Sin entered the world with Adam and Eve
everything before had looked forward to the cross
everything since has looked back to the cross
Sin entered the world with Adam and Eve
Now the debt has been paid
Life has come through Jesus Christ

13. Genesis 3:15
And I will put enmity Between you and the woman, And between your seed and her Seed; He shall bruise your head, And you shall bruise His heel."

14. From Mark The eleven…while they were eating
Rebuked their unbelief and hardness of heart
Mark 16:15 And He said to them, "Go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature. He who believes and is baptized will be saved; but he who does not believe will be condemned.

15. From Mark Signs to follow
They were to testify that a man had risen from the dead
Who would believe such?
Signs were to confirm the message
Same Holy Spirit guided men to put testimony it written form
No longer need for signs

16. From Matthew On a mountain in Galilee
They worshiped Him; but some doubted

17. From Matthew
Matthew 28:18 …"All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth. Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age." Amen.

18. From Luke
Luke 24:46-47 Then He said to them, "Thus it is written, and thus it was necessary for the Christ to suffer and to rise from the dead the third day, and that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in His name to all nations, beginning at Jerusalem.

19. Back to the Father On the Mount of Olives He blessed them
Near Bethany
He blessed them
He was taken up into heaven
Two men stood nearby
“why are you gazing into heaven?”
“He will return in like manner”

20. Alone…what next?
Luke 24:52-53 And they worshiped Him, and returned to Jerusalem with great joy, and were continually in the temple praising and blessing God.
Compare this to what they had done following His death and burial???

21. Exaltation
Mark 16:19 So then, after the Lord had spoken to them, He was received up into heaven, and sat down at the right hand of God.
Acts 7:55 But he, being full of the Holy Spirit, gazed into heaven and saw the glory of God, and Jesus standing at the right hand of God

22. Looking ahead
Mark 16:20 And they went out and preached everywhere, the Lord working with them and confirming the word through the accompanying signs. Amen.
Acts 2:24, 32, 3:15, 26, 4:10, 5:30, 10:40, 13:30-34, 17:31
Read Revelation 4-5

23. GO PREACH BAPTIZE TEACH PREACH PRAISING GOD Call to action
Mark 16:20 And they went out and preached everywhere…
Go preach…baptize
Go make disciples…baptize…teach
Preach repentance and remission of sins
with great joy, and were continually in the temple praising and blessing God
PREACH
BAPTIZE
TEACH
PREACH
PRAISING GOD
