The Gospel of Luke
Read Luke 24:50-53.
https://bible.com/bible/59/luk.24.50-53.ESV
The risen Son of God just ascended to His throne.
As you stand and watch Him rise into the heavens above, there is only one question to ask, What now?
You have witnessed Jesus, you have followed Him through His ministry, you have heard the Gospel, lamented the cross, marveled at His resurrection, and now stand in awe while the sun shines in your eyes as you catch your last glimpse of the risen Lord rising through the clouds.
As you are gathered with the disciples around you, what now? What will you do?
As you ponder this devastating question, one thing comes to mind:
“Then Jesus told his disciples, “If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me.”
-Matthew 16:24
If you are a disciple of Jesus, then there is only one thing to do.
Follow Him.
Therefore, as you have heard these words and have known Jesus, the question today is the same as it was two thousand years ago. What now?
Will you follow Jesus?
