Thanks Butch, that should pretty much settle the issue once and for all.

Acts 2:34
For David is not ascended into the heavens: but he saith himself, The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand.

In case there is any further doubt, let me add:

Hebrews 9:15
And for this cause he is the mediator of the new testament, that by means of death, for the redemption of the transgressions that were under the first testament, they which are called might receive the promise of eternal inheritance.

The same blood that works for us, worked also for all the faithful under the old covenant.

In my mind, this issue is settled.
