They do. We do have second and third century manuscripts of all the New Testament writings to which we can check our modern Bibles. Many believe that some of the bits of manuscripts are from the first century (between 50 and 100 C.E.). These manuscripts include the Ascension of Jesus Christ just as modern Bibles do.
