And after He had said these things, (A)He was lifted up while they were watching, and a cloud took Him up, out of their sight. 10 And as they were gazing intently into the sky while He was going, then behold, (B)two men in white clothing stood beside them, 11 and they said, “(C)Men of Galilee, why do you stand looking into the sky? This Jesus, who (D)has been taken up from you into heaven, will (E)come in the same way as you have watched Him go into heaven.”

Jesus Goes Up to 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.”
