We have to learn from Jesus about the Kingdom of God. That is what He taught in the 40 days after His resurrection. But where is the Master and where does He minister? Today, who guides us is the other Comforter, the Holy Spirit, promised by the Savior after His ascension to Heaven (John 14:6). The material used by Him is the Bible, which brings divine teachings, and none of them can be disregarded.

It is good to have a book by your side when reading the Word or following services on TV, radio, social media, or even in church, to jot down and not forget God's revelations. The mission of the Holy Spirit is to glorify the Lord, as He stated: He will glorify Me, for He will take of what is Mine and declare it to you.  (John 16.14) The worship is offered to the Father, in the Name of Jesus, with the revelation of the Holy Spirit.

Christ suffered for our sins, bearing our infirmities and pains upon Himself and paying the price of the punishment we deserved, in order to save us from the dominion of darkness. However, we must confess our sins to Him. In some cases, we need to open our hearts also to those we have harmed morally, physically, or financially, in order to rise above the evils and enjoy the Kingdom of God.

Before returning to Heaven, Christ appeared alive to the disciples, whom He loved, to the women who accompanied His ministry, and to His friends, providing undeniable proof of His resurrection. This confirms that He had spent 40 days on Earth, teaching the Word, so that His followers could continue the majestic work of God. The example of Jesus must be imitated!

The infallible proofs were recorded in advance in the Scriptures. Most of them have already been fulfilled, and others will still be fulfilled before the return of Jesus to Earth, when He will put an end to the evils that the devil insists on making people practice. The prophets will announce the return of Christ so that nothing will remain unfulfilled. The Bible is focused on the Master, who came to give us life in abundance (John 10:10b). When His plan is complete, He will return, and every eye will see Him (Revelation 1:7)!

In those 40 days leading up to Christ's ascension to Heaven, people talked about what they had seen since the Resurrection Sunday. This became the daily topic in Jerusalem, especially among those who closely followed Jesus' ministrations. The opinions about who the Savior was diverged, and with that, many sought to learn in the Word about Him. Thus, all the people of Jerusalem and Israel also came to believe in the resurrection of Christ.

There is no religious leader who has resurrected or whose name has the power to perform the same works that the Name of Jesus does. We need to show the world how beneficial evangelization can be, for millions of people will be saved. To Him be the glory!

In Christ, with love,
