What is Jesus Christ Doing Today?

by John Williams

I wonder if you have ever been asked a question like: ‘What is Jesus doing today?’ or ‘Where is Jesus today?’ I wonder how often you stop to think about where Christ currently is and what He is currently doing. This topic is sometimes referred to as the: ‘Present Session of Christ’ (or Christ’s ’heavenly session’).

Most Christians know what Jesus did during His first coming. They are aware of the virgin birth, the death and resurrection of Christ and also the ascension. They know very well the details of His earthly ministry. Most Christians know also that the Lord will return, even if they don’t really know the details or have no interest in the prophetic portions of God’s word. But they know little about what He is doing right now. I wonder, when was the last time you heard a sermon on the topic of what Jesus is doing today? There are right answers and there are wrong answers to this question, and these answers can have a profound effect on our theological worldview and practical Christian living.

For example, a post on this subject by Ligonier ministries, which was founded by famous reformed theologian RC Sproul, says:

“In sitting at the right hand of God, Jesus sits on the “throne of His father David” (Luke 1:26–33). He is the Messiah of Israel, “the highest of the kings of the earth” and the fulfilment of the Lord’s promise to keep the off- spring of David on the throne forever. (Ps. 89:19–37). We are not waiting for Jesus to enter into His messianic reign, He enjoys it now.”

I seriously disagree with that conclusion. Thus, there is a big difference between Pre-millennial theology and the A-millennial and Post-millennial doctrine when it comes to what Jesus Christ is doing today and it is a difference that matters. Despite what RC Sproul says, Jesus is not currently sitting on the Throne of David ruling over a spiritual millennium. But He is doing some work (or some works), and this is what I will be considering in this series of articles.
