Summary

The question of 'Where is Jesus?' goes beyond physical presence. Jesus has already come into the world, demonstrated by His life, death, and resurrection. The human heart's response to God's revelation is the real issue. Many witnessed Jesus' miracles yet did not believe, showing the heart's resistance to God. Today, God speaks through His Word, offering salvation to all. The gospel message reveals God's love in sending Jesus to save sinners. Jesus is alive, reigning, and will return. Responding to the call of the gospel leads to forgiveness, reconciliation with God, and eternal life.
