He ascended into heaven, he is seated at the right hand of the Father, from there he will come to judge the living and the dead
Description
In this message from our Apostles’ Creed series, Bishop of Wollongong Peter Hayward explores what it means to confess: “He ascended into heaven, he is seated at the right hand of the Father, from there he will come to judge the living and the dead.”
At a special confirmation service, Bishop Peter reminds us that turning to Christ is not simply acknowledging a historical figure, but trusting in the risen Lord who intercedes for us right now. His ascension is cosmic in significance — Jesus has finished his saving work, yet he remains actively involved in our lives.
Even in the face of personal struggles, global uncertainty, and the unknown of Christ’s return, we can live with purpose and joy because the final word is victory in Jesus.
