The Second Coming Of Jesus Christ
The Second Coming of Jesus Christ Praise the Lord. Respected judges and my dear friends, greetings to you all in the matchless name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. The second coming of Christ is the blessed hope of the church, the grand climax of the gospel. The Savior's coming will be literal, personal, visible, and worldwide. When He returns, the righteous dead will be resurrected, and together with the righteous living will be glorified and taken to heaven, but the unrighteous will remain on Earth. The almost complete fulfillment of prophecy, together with the present condition of the world, indicates that Christ's coming is about to happen. The time of that event has not been revealed, and we ar
.e therefore encouraged to be ready at all times. To see Jesus! To unite forever with Him who loves us more than we can imagine! To have an end of all earthly suffering! To enjoy eternity with resurrected loved ones now at rest! No wonder that since Christ's ascension His friends have looked forward to that day. The second coming of Jesus Christ is the hope of believers that God is in control of all things, and is faithful to the promises and prophecies in His Word. In His first coming, Jesus Christ came to earth as a baby in a manger in Bethlehem, just as prophesied. Jesus fulfilled many of the prophecies of the Messiah during His birth, life, death, and resurrection. However, there are some prophecies regarding the Messiah that Jesus has not yet fulfilled. The second coming of Christ will be his return to fulfill these remaining prophecies. In His first coming, Jesus was the suffering Servant. In His second coming, Jesus will be the conquering King. In His first coming, Jesus arrived in the most humble of circumstances. In His second coming, Jesus will arrive with the armies of heaven at His side. Christ's coming will be unexpected and dramatic. It's in the Bible, 2 Peter 3:10, NKJV. “But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night, in which

    When one is reading the Old Testament, it feels as though a piece of a puzzle is missing. The Gospel accounts of the life of Christ complete the puzzle begun in the Old Testament and bring the Old Testament narrative to its culmination. In this way, Jesus fulfills the Old Testament promises and expectations. What we see in the Gospels, is that the end-time promises reach their fulfillment in the eternal Son of God incarnate: Jesus of Nazareth.…

    Kingdom Come raises the literary theme of Apocalypse through its illustration of utter destruction of the world. Apocalypse is the complete final destruction of the world that involves damage on a catastrophic scale. It is described in detail in the biblical book of Revelation. The article “Book of Revelation” in Wikipedia explains that the book contains multiple visions, one of which includes “the end of the world … in which Satan’s rule through Man is destroyed by the Messiah” (e.p. 1). The “end of the world” refers to the dreams that the Apostle John received from God, giving him insight on how the world will come to finish. The reason for the destruction of the world is to cease “Satan’s rule through Man”. “Satan” is the most evil and craftiest being that God created. “Man”…

    The lineage of Jesus is a compelling prophecy because many of these were fulfilled in the Old Testament prior to Jesus birth. His birth is unique because of the prerequisite requirements to fulfill the prophecy which included being born of the lineage of David, His date of birth, He was delivered in Bethlehem and born to a virgin mother. Daniel 9:25 scripture speaks to the coming of the Messiah “Know and understand this: From the time the word goes out to restore and rebuild Jerusalem until the Anointed One,[a] the ruler, comes, there will be seven ‘sevens,’ and sixty-two ‘sevens.’ It will be rebuilt with streets and a trench, but in times of trouble" (Holy Bible). The scripture refers to the Anointed One, followed by the ruler; this is a direct foreshadowing of Jesus.…

    But one of the most importance prophecies recorded in the Old Testament was the prophecies of the coming of the Messiah. Without the Old Testament, we as Christian would not understand why the Messiah was coming (Isaiah 53). The Old Testament also, prophesied on the Messiah’s birth place “But you, Bethlehem Ephrathah, though you are little among the thousands of Judah, yet out of you shall come forth to Me, The One to be Ruler in Israel, whose goings forth are from of old, from everlasting” (Micah 5:2), his death and his resurrection “For You will not leave my soul in Sheol, nor will You allow Your Holy One to see corruption” (Psalm 16:10).
