We all know what the resurrection is all about. God raised Jesus from the dead over 2000 years ago! That means he is still alive. We know from the Bible he walked around in his resurrected body for a while and it had some amazing capabilities.
Over fourteen times in the New Testament, Jesus is described now as sitting on the right hand of God. God doesn't have a physical hand, but this is a figure of speech much like what was said about Joseph and Pharoah. We use this figure today when we talk about a leader's assistant as a right-hand man. Jesus Christ ascended to the right hand of God meaning he carries the authority of God to be Lord over the body of Christ.
How many people today really think of Jesus as being alive?
