Week 20:
Weekly Hymn: A Mighty Fortress is Our God
Heidelberg Catechism–
- Q49How does Christ’s ascension into heaven benefit us? /
Answer:First, he is our Advocate in heaven before his Father. Second, we have our flesh in heaven as a sure pledge that he, our Head, will also take us, his members, up to himself. Third, he sends us his Spirit as a counter-pledge, by whose power we seek the things that are above, where Christ is, seated at the right hand of God, and not the things that are on earth.
- Q50 Why is it added, and sits at the right hand of God? /
Answer: Christ ascended into heaven to manifest himself there as Head of his church, through whom the Father governs all things.
