    ARTICLE 5

     What us the meaning of Christ's "descended to d dead"?


    - Christ descended into this realm of the dead to bring the righteous ones to Heaven.
    Christ descended into the dead as a triumphant king to proclaim his victory over sin,
    death, and the devil to the saints who had died before him.
     Why is it so important to believe in Christ’s resurrection?
    - Through resurrection, we believe life has triumphed over death, good over evil, hope
    over despair. The resurrection is a sign of God's great power. Nothing is too great for
    God to achieve, and this is comforting and encouraging for Christians in difficulty. The
    resurrection of Jesus Christ is the central truth of the Christian faith. Without it there is
    no such thing as the Christian faith.
     What is d meaning and salvific importance of Christ’s resurrection?
    - The death and resurrection of Jesus are the most important events, a foundation of the
    Christian faith, and commemorated by Easter. For Christians, his resurrection is the
    guarantee that all the Christian dead will be resurrected at Christ's second coming. The
    resurrection of Jesus is a testimony to the general resurrection of all humans, which will
    be followed by the dispensing of God's justice; to the righteous there will be a
    "resurrection of life" and to the unrighteous a "resurrection of condemnation" ( John
    5:28-29 ; cf. Rev 20:4-6 ).
     What does ascension mean?
    - Ascension, in Christian belief, the ascent of Jesus Christ into heaven on the 40th day
    after his Resurrection (Easter being reckoned as the first day). The Feast of
    the Ascension ranks with Christmas, Easter, and Pentecost in the universality of its
    observance among Christians. The feast has been celebrated 40 days after Easter in both
    Eastern and Western Christianity since the 4th century. Prior to that time, the Ascension
    was commemorated as a part of the celebration of the descent of the Holy Spirit at
    Pentecost.
     Why will Christ "come again" mean?
    - The Bible says that Jesus is coming back to reward the inhabitants of the earth and bring
    many back to heaven with Him (Revelation 22:12). The Bible also says in Matthew 25:34,
    “Then the King will say to those on His right hand, ‘Come, you blessed of My Father,
    inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world.’”
