Heidelberg Catechism Questions 50-52
XIX. LORD'S DAY.
- Question 50.
Why is it added, "and sitteth at the right hand of God"?
Answer. Because Christ is ascended into heaven for this end, that he might [a] appear as head of his church, by
whom the Father [b] governs all things.
- Question 51.
What profit is this glory of Christ, our head, unto us?
Answer. First, that by his Holy Spirit he [c] pours our heavenly graces upon us his members; and then that by his
power he defends [d] and preserves us against all enemies.
- Question 52.
What comfort is it to thee that "Christ shall come again to judge the quick and the dead"?
Answer. That in all my sorrows and persecutions, with uplifted head [e] I look for the very same person, who
before offered himself for my sake, to the tribunal of God, and has removed all curse from me, to come as
judge from heaven: who shall cast all his [f] and my enemies into everlasting condemnation, but shall
translate [g] me with all his chosen ones to himself, into heavenly joys and glory.
