THE MAN-SAVIOR'S ASCENSION

THE MAN-SAVIOR'S INAUGURATION

INTO HIS HEAVENLY OFFICE

If we would understand the ascension of the Man-Savior, Jesus Christ, we need to see that it is His inauguration into His heavenly office. This inauguration required a lengthy process that began with creation and continued with incar­ nation, human living, crucifixion, and resurrec­ tion. This process involved the Man-Savior as God, man, Creator, creature, Redeemer, Savior, and life-giving Spirit. In His ascension the Lord Jesus was inaugurated to execute God's admin­ istration and to carry out God's New Testament economy. In the objective aspect, the Lord's as­ cension caused Him to be crowned with glory and honor (Heb. 2:9) and to be enthroned for God's administration (Heb. 12:2) and made Him the Lord to possess all and the Christ to carry out God's commission.

Christ is now on the throne to administrate the entire universe. He is the unique Adminis­ trator, the King of kings and the Lord of lords.
