So many have not given it much thought...I'd love if they would come to their own conclusions after mentioning Max Plank...quantum physics...sub-atomic particles...the unseen with the naked eyes, but using EM microscopes what we have found....stuff like that.
I was shown once, decades ago, exactly how Jesus ascended ...haha, I always have to say with no drugs...gosh, I was a vegetarian, didn't even drink coffee!
It wasn't because I was smart...it's just it was revealed to me...I 'got it'.
(This stuff happens when you
sit for hours and hours and hours and hours in stillness sometimes.)
Take care
totally understand.
That's cool.
peace friend,
sparrow

He passed right through the crowd and went on his way, never to be seen again.
In other words, He disappeared before their eyes and was seen no more.

It is plain from Scripture that Jesus' ascension was a literal, bodily return to heaven. He rose from the ground gradually and visibly, observed by many intent onlookers.

Yes, how does one transport themselves to another realm, dimension ...that actually, is my basic question.
Cuz it's more than a, "Poof!"
Was it a miracle that is simply unexplained...isn't God the Master Genius Physicist ...the Creator of physics and mathematics... how did this happen?

Heaven is not out yonder, it's merely another dimension or that which is perceived as having a different reality.
In other words, He disappeared right before their eyes and was seen no more, but he wasn't floating into space.

Remember, those who were talking with him did not recognize him? Neither, did they see him enter the room.

That you have no idea where Jesus could have been "bodily return(ed)?"

No, it will not be respected...
You guys can come up with it...if you put you're thinking caps on...he left the
same way he will be able to reappear...that was a hint.
I mean if he wanted to.
