Jesus is alive today, hence the "Resurrection". According to John 14, Jesus has gone to Heaven to prepare us a place. He also tells us that if he goes to prepare us a place, the he will surely return to get us and take us to that place.

Jesus was Crucified on the Cross, Resurrected and then ascended into Heaven in order to prepare us a place of eternal life and peace. He is still alive today, he is just in Heaven.

Christ remained on earth 40 days, the symbolic number of completion in The Bible.

A:

Luke's Gospel says that Jesus was taken bodily up into heaven near Bethany on the evening of his resurrection.

Acts of the Apostles, written by the same author as Luke's Gospel but some time later, also says that Jesus was taken bodily up into heaven, but this time near Mount Olivet and 40 days after the resurrection.

Only Luke's Gospel and Acts of the Apostles actually say how long Jesus lived on earth after his resurrection.

Luke's Gospel says that Jesus rose bodily to heaven on the evening of the day of his resurrection. According to this source, he stayed on earth less than one day.

Acts of the Apostles, although written somewhat later by the same author, says that Jesus stayed on earth for a further forty days and was seen by many.

He died on the cross. If he had stayed alive until the evening, the Roman soldiers would have broken his legs to accelerate death. This would have violated prophecy, so he died in the afternoon before this could happen.

After the Resurrection 3 days later, he lives forever.
