(in Heaven, triumphant)

Fehu‘i #49

‘Oku ‘i fē ‘a Kalaisi ‘i he taimi lolotongá ?

Na‘e toetu‘u ‘a Kalaisi ‘i he sinó  mei fa‘itoka ‘i he ‘aho hono tolú, hili ‘ene pekiá  pea ‘oku ne ‘afio ‘i he to‘omata‘u ‘o e Tamaí, ‘o ne pule‘i mei ai hono kakaí  mo hūfia kitautolu kae‘oua ke ne toe foki mai ke fakamaau‘i mo fakafo‘ou ‘a mamani.

Where is Christ now?

Christ rose bodily from the grave on the third day after his death and is seated at the right hand of the Father, ruling his kingdom and interceding for us, until he returns to judge and renew the whole world.

‘EFESO 1:20-21

‘a ia na‘a ne fai ‘ia Kalaisi, he‘ene fokotu‘u ia mei he pekia, mo ne fakanofo ia mei hono to‘omata‘u ‘i he ngaahi feitu‘u ‘o Langi, ‘o mā‘olunga ‘i he fa‘ahinga pule kotoa pē, mo e ma‘u tu‘unga, mo e ma‘u mālohi, mo e tu‘unga ‘eiki, ‘io, ‘i he hingoa kotoa pē ‘oku hingoa ‘aki ‘i he tu‘u ko eni, pea ‘ikai ngata ai, ka ‘i he tu‘u foki ka hoko mai;

EPHESIANS 1:20-21

He raised him from the dead and seated him at his right hand in the heavenly places, far above all rule and authority and power and dominion, and above every name that is named, not only in this age but also in the one to come.

Commentary CHARLES WESLEY

Hail the day that sees Him rise,

Ravish'd from our wishful eyes!

Christ, awhile to mortals given,

Re-ascends His native heaven!

There the pompous triumph waits:

“Lift your heads, eternal gates,

Wide unfold the radiant scene,

Take the King of Glory in!”

Circled round with angel powers,

Their triumphant Lord, and ours,

Conqueror over death and sin,

Take the King of Glory in!
