What does the Bible mean when it says Christ is seated at the right hand of God?

Answered in 1 source

Christ being seated at the right hand of God signifies the completion of His sacrificial work and His authority.

In Hebrews 10:12-13, the act of Christ sitting down at the right hand of God signifies that His work of atonement is complete. Unlike the priests of the Old Testament who stood continuously offering sacrifices, Christ’s seated position denotes that He has finished the redemptive work for humanity. This enthronement signifies His authority over all creation and His ongoing intercession for believers. It is a posture of honor and indicates that all things are under His authority, as reiterated in Ephesians 1:20-22. Ultimately, it assures believers that Christ’s victory guarantees our security and empowerment in His Kingdom.
