Where Is Jesus Now?


Listen Later

Many of us know His story: Born in Bethlehem, He taught many people, He healed people. He fed huge crowds with little food, He raised dead bodies to life, adults and children. He died on a Roman execution ground, and after 3 days, came out of his grave alive. He spent 40 days with his disciples, proving he was alive, and finally “as they watched, he was taken up and a cloud received Him out of their sight.” That leads to a very Big Question: Where is Jesus Now?

We have a first person account by one of Jesus early followers, a man named Stephen.

He was telling people around him about Jesus. Some of them were ashamed about killing Jesus and they began to stone Stephen. As he was dying he saw Jesus in heaven and said, “Look! I see the heavens opened and the Son of Man standing at the right hand of God!” (Acts 7:56).

Eight other times this picture is described in God's Word, the Bible.

Peter the Apostle says this:
“Now Christ has gone to heaven. He is seated in the place of honor next to God, and all the angels and authorities and powers accept his authority: (1 Peter 3:22).
The Apostle Paul says “set your sights on the realities of heaven, where Christ sits in the place of honor at God’s right hand” (Col 3:1).
Jesus is there interceding for us. He's like our defense attorney, even when we are far from Him. Jesus knows all about your life and asks the Father to help you. He sends the Holy Spirit to teach and comfort you through life's troubles.

He is not willing any should perish but that all should turn to Him. (2 Peter 3:9 )
He desires all men to be saved. (1 Tim 2:4)
The message is clear: Jesus is alive and He's in Heaven for you!
