The Ascension - Page 6

Index

So it was in the power and presence of the Ascended Christ that they went out into the world to preach the Gospel in every land, and to make him King on earth as he is in Heaven by drawing men, women and children into the full life of his Church which is his Kingdom on earth.

And that is also our task today among those of our own circle – by word if possible, by our example to them and our prayers for them.  The privilege of belonging to Christ and to his Kingdom carries with it the responsibility of doing our best to commend his Sovereign rule to others.  For each of us is one of the channels on whom Our Lord relies and through whom his Kingdom should be advancing from its Centre, where he is set down enthroned at his Father’s right hand.
