Concerning Jesus’ ascension into heaven, the Bible teaches the following: Jesus has visibly, according to His human nature, ascended into heaven to the Father’s glory. As our Savior He has taken heaven, with all its mansions, into His possession for us, His own.

Eph. 4:10: He that descended is the same also that ascended up far above all heavens, that He might fill all things.

Joh. 14:3: I will come again, and receive you unto Myself, that where I am, there ye may be also.

Joh. 14:2-3: In my Fathers’s house are many mansions; if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto Myself, that where I am, there ye may be also.
