Jesus Goes Back Up Into Heaven – as written by Luke
9 After saying this, Jesus was taken up while those who had gathered together were watching, and a cloud took him out of their sight. 10 While he was going and they were gazing up toward heaven, two men in white robes stood right beside them. 11 They asked, “Men of Galilee, why do you stand looking up toward heaven? This same Jesus, who has been taken up from you into heaven, will come back in the same way you saw him go up into heaven.”
Acts 1:9-11
Also read: Luke 24:50-53.
