“Fuentes Eternas” #100.
CAPITULO II
CREO EN JESUCRISTO, HIJO UNICO DE DIOS
ARTICULO 6 “JESUCRISTO SUBIO A LOS CIELOS,
Y ESTA SENTADO A LA DERECHA DE DIOS, PADRE
TODOPODEROSO”
“Con esto, el Senor Jesús, después de hablarles, fue elevado al
Cielo y se sentó a la diestra de Dios” (Mc 16,19). El cuerpo de
Cristo fue glorificado desde el instante de su Resurrección como
lo prueban las propiedades nuevas y sobrenaturales, de las que
desde entonces su cuerpo disfruta para siempre. Pero durante
los cuarenta días en los que El come y bebe familiarmente con
sus discípulos y les instruye sobre el Reino, su gloria aun queda
velada bajo los rasgos de una humanidad ordinaria. La última
aparición de Jesús termina con la entrada irreversible de su humanidad en la gloria divina simbolizada por la nube y por el cielo
donde El se sienta para siempre a la derecha de Dios. Sólo de
manera completamente excepcional y única, se muestra a Pablo
“como un abortivo” (1Co 15,8) en una última aparición que constituye a éste en apóstol.
El carácter velado de la gloria del Resucitado durante este tiempo se transparenta en sus palabras misteriosas a María Magdalena: “Todavía no he subido al Padre. Vete donde los hermanos
y diles: Subo a mi Padre y vuestro Padre, a mi Dios y vuestro
Dios” (Jn 20,17). Estos indican una diferencia de manifestación
entre la gloria de Cristo resucitado y la de Cristo exaltado a la
derecha del Padre. El acontecimiento a la vez histórico y trascendente de la Ascensión marca la transición de una a otra.
Esta última etapa permanece estrechamente unida a la primera,
es decir, a la bajada desde el cielo realizada en la Encarnación.
Solo el que “salió del Padre “puede “volver al Padre”: Cristo.
Nadie ha subido al cielo sino el que bajo del cielo, el Hijo del
Hombre “(Jn 3,13). Dejada a sus fuerzas naturales, la humanidad no tiene acceso a la “Casa del Padre” (Jn 14,2), a la vida y a
la felicidad de Dios. Sólo Cristo ha podido abrir este acceso al hombre, “ha querido precedernos como cabeza nuestra para que
nosotros, miembros de su Cuerpo, vivamos con la ardiente esperanza de seguirlo en su Reino”.
Cuando yo sea levantado de la tierra, atraeré a todos hacia
mi” (Jn 12,32). La elevación en la Cruz significa y anuncia la elevación en la Ascensión al Cielo. Es su comienzo. Jesucristo, el
único Sacerdote de la Alianza nueva y eterna, no “penetro en un
Santuario hecho por mano de hombre…, sino en el mismo cielo,
para presentarse ahora ante el acatamiento de Dios a favor
nuestro” (Hb 9,24). En el cielo, Cristo ejerce permanentemente
su sacerdocio. “De ahí que pueda salvar perfectamente a los que
por El se llegan a Dios, ya que esta siempre vivo para interceder
en su favor” (Hb 7, 25). Como ‘Sumo Sacerdote de los bienes
futuros” Hb 9,11), es el centro y el oficiante principal de la liturgia
que honra al Padre en los cielos.
Cristo desde entonces, está sentado a la derecha del Padre:
“Por derecha del Padre entendemos la gloria y el honor de la
divinidad, donde El que existía como Hijo de Dios antes de todos
los siglos, como Dios y consubstancial al Padre, está sentado
corporalmente después de que se encarnó y de que su carne fue
glorificada”. Sentarse a la derecha del Padre significa la inauguración del Reino del Mesías, cumpliéndose la visión del profeta
Daniel respecto del Hijo del Hombre: “A Él se le dio imperio, honor y reino, y todos los pueblos, naciones y lenguas le sirvieron.
Su imperio es un imperio eterno, que nunca pasará, y su Reino no
será destruido jamás” (Dn 7,14). A partir de este momento, los apóstoles se convirtieron en los testigos del “Reino que no tendrá fin”.
(Catecismo de la Iglesia Católica)

“WALKING TOGETHER TO LOOK FOR
“ETERNAL FOUNTAINS” # 100.
CHAPTER II
I BELIEVE IN JESUS CHRIST,
THE ONLY SON OF GOD
ARTICLE 6 “HE ASCENDED INTO HEAVEN AND IS
SEATED AT THE RIGHT HAND OF THE FATHER”
“So then the Lord Jesus, after he had spoken to them, was
taken up into heaven, and sat down at the right hand of God.”
Christ‘s body was glorified at the moment of his Resurrection,
as proved by the new and supernatural properties it subsequently and permanently enjoys. But during the forty days
when he eats and drinks familiarly with his disciples and teaches them about the kingdom, his glory remains veiled under the
appearance of ordinary humanity. Jesus’ final apparition ends
with the irreversible entry of his humanity into divine glory, symbolized by the cloud and by the heaven, where he is seated
from that time forward at God’s right hand. Only in a wholly exceptional and unique way would Jesus show himself to Paul “As
to one untimely born,” in a last apparition that established him
as an apostle.
The veiled character of the glory of the Risen One during this
time is intimated in his mysterious words to Mary Magdalene: “I
have not yet ascended to the Father; but go to my brethren and
say to them, I am ascending to my Father and your Father, to
my God and your God.” This indicates a difference in manifestation between the glory of the risen Christ and that of the Christ
exalted to the Father’s right hand, a transition marked by the
historical and transcendent event of the Ascension.
This final stage stays closely linked to the first, that is, to his
descent from heaven in the Incarnation. Only the one who
“came from the Father” can return to the Father: Christ Jesus.
“No one has ascended into heaven but he who descended from
heaven, the Son of man.” Left to its own natural powers humanity does not have access to the Father’s house,” to God’s life
and happiness. Only Christ can open to man such access that
we, his members, might have confidence that we too shall go
where he, our Head and our Source, has preceded us.
“And I, when I am lifted up from the earth, will draw all men to
myself”. The lifting up of Jesus on the cross signifies and announces his lifting up by his Ascension into heaven, and indeed
begins it. Jesus Christ, the one priest of the new and eternal
Covenant, “entered, not into a sanctuary made by humans
hands…but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of
God on our behalf.” There Christ permanently exercises his
priesthood, for he “always lives to make intercession” for “those
who draw near to God through him.” As “High priest of the good
things to come” he is the center and the principal actor of the
liturgy that honors the Father in heaven.
Henceforth Christ is seated at the right hand of the Father: “By
‘the Father’s right hand’ we understand the glory and honor of
divinity, where he who exists as Son of God before all ages,
indeed as God, of one being with the Father, is seated bodily
after he became incarnate and his flesh was glorified.”
Being seated at the Father’s right hand signifies the inauguration of the Messiah’s kingdom, the fulfillment of the prophet
Daniel’s vision concerning the Son of man: “To him was given
dominion and glory and kingdom, that all peoples, nations, and
languages should serve him; his dominion is an everlasting
dominion, which shall not pass away, and his kingdom one that
shall not be destroyed.” After this event the apostles became
witnesses of the “kingdom (that) will have no end.”
