He’s alive working through the Holy Spirit and the last I knew according to the Bible he’s sitting at the right hand of the Father. He’ll come back during the second coming where even the angles don’t know that day.

The question is, which Jesus are you talking about?
The Biblical Jesus is very much alive. His body was dead for 3 days, but His Spirit, even as a man, never died. If He's God - and He's God! - obviously He's alive, He's the source of Life, He is Life Himself.

In every false religion j/'J'esus is alive. For example, the quranic isa - the counterfeit of the Biblical Jesus - is alive too. The god of islam didn't allow him to die on the cross...; the guiding spirit 'J'esus or 'Imannuel' (or whatever) of the spiritist sects is alive too... and so on.

It seems that there are certain truths that God does not allow the devil to change, no matter how false his teachings are.

According to the Jewish faith, Christ did not come to earth yet, and the Jewish believers are waiting for the "Messiah" to come at the end of time to rule the world, while they do not believe in Jesus, the son of Mary, and his mother, the Virgin Mary.
According to the Christian faith
Jesus was crucified and buried by the Jews. And they closed the holy tomb with a large stone to prevent anyone from entering. Catholics and Oriental and Oriental Orthodox believe that Jesus was buried in the Church of the Holy Sepulchre in East Jerusalem in Palestine, while some Protestants and Evangelicals believe that he was buried in the Garden Tomb in Jerusalem.
Jesus' tomb is empty because God raised Jesus after his crucifixion. Where his buried earthy body turned into a glorified, luminous body - by God's power - at the moment of his union with the spirit during the process of resurrection. He rose from his grave to save the world from sin.
According to the local folklore of Shingo Village in Japan
Jesus did not die on the cross in Palestine, but rather his brother Isukiri died instead on the cross while Jesus fled until he reached Shingo in Japan. He married and left a family and was buried in the “tomb of Jesus” located in the village, which is also called “the house of Jesus” because it claims to be the final resting place of Jesus.

Nature, in the broadest sense, is the physical world or universe. "Nature" can refer to the phenomena of the physical world, and also to life in general. The study of nature is a large, if not the only, part of science.

Faith And Science series
adapted from the author's textbook Faith, Science, & Reason: Theology on the Cutting Edge, 2nd edition (Midwest Theological Forum, 2019).
1. God creates the universe ex nihilo, “from nothing.”
2. God creates the universe *** tempore, “with time.”
3. God creates the universe *** libertate, “with freedom.”
4. God creates the universe ex Trinitate, “out of the Trinity.”

All enlightened people's bodies are just like us, the are born as babies and progress to youth and old age and ultimately die like anybody else, they eat, so they have to use washroom too just like us. If they place their hand in fire, it will burn like us. So ultimately they die physically but mind also die this is called enlightenment. That is what happened to Buddha, Krishna, Maharshi Raman, Osho, Christ and all. When Jesus said I and my father are one, that is what he meant, he is no longer an individual he is one with Existent. And existent is never born nor will ever die. I hope you understand this.

Enlightenment is a state of awakened understanding. It can be described as the transcendence of suffering and desire in order to obtain spiritual liberation (moksha). To be enlightened is to be freed from the tyranny of the mind and to experience deep spiritual peace, presence and wholeness.
In Christianity, the word "enlightenment" is rarely used, except to refer to the Age of Enlightenment and its influence on Christianity.

Each tradition has its own definition for enlightenment. Even within a single tradition, there are various schools which define it in their own way.
Jake H. Davis, Postdoctoral Associate at New York University published a paper in 2013 titled ‘Can enlightenment be traced to specific neural correlates, cognition, or behavior?
He talks about various studies which have been previously conducted on people who claim spiritual enlightenment.
He said: Scientific investigation of mindfulness and meditation have already arguably advanced the field of neuroscience and specifically our knowledge of the brain.
In Islam
The enlightened man is the one who decides with himself to believe in the One God. With the light of faith, he can make his way to attain the highest levels of closeness to God, and that is through good deeds.
The human mind derives from the light of faith a new dimension that enables it to comprehend facts about which it would not have known anything without this light.
If a part of the light of faith enters a person's heart, some positive effects appear on him. And when faith continues to increase; it reflects positively on his interests and enlightens his heart more and more, until he reaches as close as possible to the prophets. But if the light of faith enters the heart of a person and then he does not constantly work to increase it; it will diminish, and many of the positive effects of faith will disappear.
As for the disbelievers and polytheists, their reasoning is idle with regard to conversion to faith, because their life is in the darkness of disbelief and hypocrisy. God does not bring anyone out of darkness into light except those who believe.
God said;
‘We made for them hearing and vision and hearts [i.e., intellect]. But their hearing and vision and hearts availed them not from anything [of the punishment] when they were [continually] rejecting the signs of God; and they were enveloped by what they used to ridicule.’ (Quran).

In the Islamic faith
Jesus is alive, he did not die until now, and the Jews did not kill him, rather they besieged him with his group, so Jesus told his companions that whoever takes his image and goes out to the Jews will have paradise, so one of them came out and the Jews killed him and crucified him thinking that he was Jesus.
It was said that one of those gathered in the house was a hypocrite, and he directed the Jews to the location of Jesus, so God made him in the image of Jesus, so the Jews seized him, killed him, and crucified him.
The Quran says:
Concerning the libel of the Jews and the response to it: And their saying, “We killed the Messiah, Jesus son of Mary, the Messenger of God.” But they neither killed nor crucified him—it was only made to appear so. Even those who argue for this ˹crucifixion˺ are in doubt. They have no knowledge whatsoever—only making assumptions. They certainly did not kill him. Rather, God raised him up to Himself.

Where is Jesus right now? He is seated in heaven, bodily. He is omnipresent as God and specially present in believers (ALIVE IN US "... in our hearts" winking ).

False doctrine
I agree,
Matthew 13
Therefore speak I to them in parables: because they seeing see not; and hearing they hear not, neither do they understand.
14. And in them is fulfilled the prophecy of Esaias, which saith, By hearing ye shall hear, and shall not understand; and seeing ye shall see, and shall not perceive:
15. For this people's heart is waxed gross, and their ears are dull of hearing, and their eyes they have closed; lest at any time they should see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and should understand with their heart, and should be converted, and I should heal them.
16. But blessed are your eyes, for they see: and your ears, for they hear.
