The Angels Of God Ascending And Descending

John 1:50-51 – Jesus said, “You believe because I told you I saw you under the fig tree. You will see greater things than that.” He then added, “Very truly I tell you, you will see ‘heaven open, and the angels of God ascending and descending on’ the Son of Man.”

Genesis 28:12 – He had a dream in which he saw a stairway resting on the earth, with its top reaching to heaven, and the angels of God were ascending and descending on it.

John 14:6 – Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.

Mark 8:31 – He then began to teach them that the Son of Man must suffer many things and be rejected by the elders, the chief priests and the teachers of the law, and that he must be killed and after three days rise again.

Application:

  • ·         Jesus Himself is the bridge between heaven and earth, the only “mediator between God and mankind”.
  • ·         Jesus is not one way among many but the only way.
  • ·         The Son of Man is pictured as a heavenly figure who in the end times is entrusted by God with authority, glory and sovereign power.
