When he visited Mary in the garden just after his resurrection, he instructed her not to touch him because he had not yet ascended to his father. But it is clear that he visited the twelve and instructed them to touch him and examine the prints in his hands and feet. He had ascended at this point and visited the twelve so that they could testify that he had indeed overcome death.

But ascension is really beside the point. Jesus appeared before he came to earth. Moses talked to him face to face as a man speaks to another man. Jesus can and does appear to many. He did to Joseph but he didn't stay on the earth. He didn't come with his two edged sword and end the world. He gave instructions -- part of which were to prepare for the second coming.

I don't really think you, Aesa, are here to discuss or to listen. So, I doubt this conversation will go anywhere.
