(Acts 1:6-9) When, now, they had assembled, they went asking him: "Lord, are you restoring the kingdom to Israel at this time?" 7 He said to them: "It does not belong to YOU to get knowledge of the times or seasons which the Father has placed in his own jurisdiction; 8 but YOU will receive power when the holy spirit arrives upon YOU, and YOU will be witnesses of me both in Jerusalem and in all Ju‧de′a and Sa‧mar′i‧a and to the most distant part of the earth." 9 And after he had said these things, while they were looking on, he was lifted up and a cloud caught him up from their vision.

Where in the Bible does it say how many saw Jesus' ascension and how many saw Him resurrected?
The ascension of Jesus is only mentioned in Luke's Gospel and Acts of the Apsotles, although the accounts differ. Luke 24:51 says that the ascension of Jesus was watched by the disciples on the evening of his resurrection. Acts of the Apostles, although by the same author, says (chapter 1) that Jesus acended to heaven forty days after his resurrection, in the presence of 'them', an undefined number of people.Each of the gospels gives a different account of how many times the Risen Jesus appeared, and how many saw him after his resurrection. The exception is Mark's Gospel, which in its original form ended at verse 16:8, with the young man telling the women that Jesus was risen and they told no one; the "Long Ending" (verses 16:9-20) was added long afterwards to provide the necessary resurrection appearances and to more or less harmonise Markwith Matthew and Luke.
Was Matthew one of Jesus' 12 disciples?
A:Yes, Matthew was one of Jesus' twelve disciples. Later in the second century, he was also attributed with writing one of the hitherto gospels, now known as Matthew's Gospel, although modern biblical scholars say that the Gospel could not have been written by a disciple.
How many times did Jesus tell the disciples follow him?
alot jesus was a peaceful guy he under stood people and wha they had to say. he helped people like lazzerath etc. so my opinion over 5 times
How many times did Jesus say the your Father in the garden before his death?
The prayer that Jesus introduced to the disciples is known as The Lord's Prayer, or Our Father, which are the prayer's opening words. (Matthew 6:9-13) According to the gospel record, He only delivered it once, and NOT in the garden and NOT just before His death. Rather, it was fairly early on in His ministry and within the Sermon on the Mount (Begins at Matthew 5:1) [NOT the Mount of Olives] that this prayer was introduced.
How many times did Jesus appear after he rose from the dead on Easter morning?
Mark's Gospel, the first gospel to be written, originally ended at verse 16:8 with the young man telling the women that Jesus was risen and they fled in terror, telling no one. In this account, Jesus did not appear after he rose from the dead. The 'Long Ending' (verses 16:9-20) was added after the other gospels had been written, and most closely follows Luke, in having Jesus appear, first to Mary Magdalene, then to "two of them", and finally to the disciples once at a meal.In Matthew's Gospel, Jesus appeared to the two women, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary, hurrying back to tell the disciples, and later showed himself to the disciples at a mountain in Galilee, where he sent them forth to preach to all nations.In Luke's Gospel, only Jesus appeared to two disciples on the road to Emmaeus, then to the eleven disciples once at a meal in an upper room on the evening of his resurrection, then took them out on the road to Bethany where he ascended bodily to heaven.John's Gospel was loosely based on Luke but changes the account of the risen Jesus. He appeared once to Mary Magdalene standing in the garden, then to ten of the disciples at a meal on the evening of his resurrection, then eight days later to all eleven in the same room, and finally to the disciples by the Sea of Galilee.Some of these accounts exclude the others, while at least two are the same appearance: Matthew's appearance at the mountain in Galilee can not be totalled with the others, as it excludes the possibility of these appearances (and vice-versa); Mark's (Long Ending) appearance is the same as Luke's appearance; strictly speaking, the two appearances John describes in the upper room are not the same as Luke's appearance in the same room, but most readers would see either one of them as matching Luke's account. Nevertheless, the ascension to heaven in Luke excludes John's account. Each gospel should therefore be treated separately , so that Jesus was seen by the disciples once in each of Matthew, Mark's Long Ending and Luke, but three times in John.Paul's epistles, which were written before the gospels, say (1 Corinthians 15:3-8) that Jesus was seen by Cephas (Peter), then the twelve, then by more than 500, then by James and all the apostles. For Paul, the 'twelve' seem to be a different group than the apostles, and the appearances seem to have been spiritual, in the same way as the later appearance to Paul himself. If we do treat the 'twelve' as the same as the apostles (although the gospels would allow only eleven of them), then Jesus showed himself twice to disciples as a group.Acts of the Apostles, written around the end of the first century by the same author as Luke's Gospel, says that Jesus was on earth 40 days and was seen by many before he ascended bodily to heaven near Jerusalem.

No. The term "Christian" wasn't coined until after Jesus' ascension and the establishment of the church (Acts 11:26). Jesus called those who believed in Him "My disciples" (John 8:31 and others).

Who did peter thought Jesus was?
Jesus asked his disciples, "But who do you say that I am?" Peter answered, "You are the Christ." Peter, according to this passage, believed that Jesus was the Messiah.
For what reasons should the disciples have expected Jesus to be raised?
No matter what we read back into the gospels in hindsight, they say that the disciples clearly did not expect Jesus to be raised. Once Jesus was arrested, we are told that the disciples, to a man, distanced themselves from him. None of them went to the tomb on Sunday morning, and they expressed surprise when he appeared to them.
Why do you think jesus waited with the disciples forty days after his resurrection before going to heaven?
A:It is unclear just when Jesus did ascend to heaven, if this is historically correct. Acts of the Apostles tells us that he ascended after forty days, during which he was seen by many (1:3). On this account, he could have chosen to wait until enough people had seen him to prove his resurrection was real. However, Luke's Gospel, written by the same author but somewhat earlier, says that Jesus ascended to heaven on the evening of the day of his resurrection (24:51). Paul, in his epistles, seems to have believed that the resurrection and the ascension to heaven were one and the same event - in other words, that Jesus was resurrected spiritually and that there was no physical resurrection. Matthew and Mark do not mention an ascension to heaven, and Matthew's account of the appearance of the risen Jesus to the disciples seems to rule out the ascension in Acts as well as that in Luke. On these accounts we can not say that Jesus waited forty days, or even that he ascended bodily to heaven at all.
What day is when Mary went to heaven?
AnswerThe gospels say that Jesus rose from the grave on the third day - Sunday. The passages in which Jesus rose to heaven are called the ascension, and are only found in Luke's Gospel and Acts of the Apostles. Luke says that Jesus was seen by the disciples to ascend bodily to heaven on the evening of the same day as his resurrection from the grave (Luke 24:51) - Sunday.Acts of the Apostles, written by the same author but some time later, says that Jesus remained on earth for forty days after his resurrection from the grave and was then seen by the disciples to ascend bodily to heaven. Acts is not sufficiently specific about exactly how many days the risen Jesus was on earth to say which day this was.
