FAQs Mondays: "Where Is Jesus?"

Last week, we looked at the Lord's Supper and how it demonstrates the gospel. You can read that post here. We are moving toward the conclusion of this catechism which closes on the doctrine of final things. This week, we are answering the question, "Where is Jesus?".

Did Christ remain in the tomb after his crucifixion?


No; he rose from the tomb on the third day after his death.

Where is Christ now?

Christ is in heaven, seated at the right hand God the Father.

Will Christ come again?

Yes; at the last day he will come and judge the world.

We learn, from the question and answers, that Jesus is alive. We need to help our children understand these basic truths. Jesus isn't just "in their hearts." He is King of kings and Lord of lords. He is returning to judge the living and the dead. Next week, we will explore the question, "What happens to people when they die?".
