Why is Christ's ascension to God's right hand important for Christians?

Answered in 1 source

Christ's ascension signifies His authority and His role in interceding for believers before God.

Christ's position at the right hand of God is crucial for Christians as it highlights His supremacy and the completion of His work in salvation. In Hebrews 1:3, it states that after purging our sins, He sat down at the right hand of the majesty on high. This act signifies an accomplished work and a position of power and honor, one from which He governs and sustains all things. Moreover, His ascension reaffirms that He continually intercedes for us, bearing our needs before the Father. His authority assures us that no matter our struggles, He is able to save us to the uttermost and keeps us secure in His grace.
