This article argues that, unlike some exegetes (e.g. Francis Moloney), Thomas Torrance correctly interpreted Mark 16:19–20 in support of a theology of the ascended Christ's continuing prophetic activity. In the ministry of the Word, Christ remains present and at work witnessing to himself. This prophetic office, associated with and not to be separated from his kingly and priestly functions, is not to be played down. He is the primary agent forever actively involved in Christian proclamation.

托马斯·托伦斯（马可福音16：19-20）和基督升天的预言角色

本文认为，托马斯·托兰斯不像某些其他事物（例如弗朗西斯·莫洛尼）那样，正确地解释了马可福音16：19–20，以支持基督升天后的预言活动的神学。在话语的事奉中，基督仍然在场并在工作中为自己作见证。这个先知的职分与他的王职和祭司职能有关，不要与他的职权分开，不要轻描淡写。他是永远积极参与基督教宣讲的主要代理人。
