Why is Christ being seated at God's right hand important for Christians?

Answered in 1 source

Christ's position at God's right hand signifies His completed work and ongoing role as mediator for His Church.

The significance of Christ being seated at the right hand of God is multi-faceted and vital for Christians. This position symbolizes the completion of His redemptive work, as expressed in Hebrews 10:12, where His sitting down indicates rest from the sacrifices that could never atone for sin. Furthermore, it marks the beginning of His reign and active mediation on behalf of His people. As our High Priest, He continually intercedes for us, wielding His authority for the benefit of the Church. This profound truth provides comfort and hope, reinforcing the belief that all things are under His dominion and that He is committed to governing all events for the Church's ultimate good.
