Ascension Day: The reason for a public and visible ascension is that Jesus wanted His disciples to know He had gone for good. During the forty days (after the resurrection) He had kept appearing, disappearing and reappearing. But now the interim period was over. This time His departure was final. So the disciples were not to wait around for His next resurrection appearance. Instead they were to wait for someone else, the Holy Spirit (John Stott).
