The Second Coming Of Jesus Christ may or may not be in 2012 but Jesus Christ is coming again! Following his crucifixion and his resurrection, Our Lord Jesus gathered together his followers and gave them his final commands.  Then while they watched…

Acts 1:9   And when he had spoken these things, while they beheld, he was taken up; and a cloud received him out of their sight. 10   And while they looked stedfastly toward heaven as he went up, behold, two men stood by them in white apparel; 11   Which also said, Ye men of Galilee, why stand ye gazing up into heaven? this same Jesus, which is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as ye have seen him go into heaven.

ReturnofChrist

Jesus promised to come again.  It is mentioned all through Scripture.  He who cannot lie hath promised us that Jesus will return to this old earth again!

Though there are some things that we do not know about the second coming of Christ, there are many things that we do know to be actual factual!

1. He came the first time.  He will come the second time.

2. He arose physically.  He will come again physically. “In like manner” (Acts 1:11)

3. He came the first time in exact fulfillment of Biblical prophecy, and he will come the second time, fulfilling all Biblical prophecy.  Matthew 26: 56   But all this was done, that the scriptures of the prophets might be fulfilled.

4. At his first appearing, he came as a little babe, to enter the human race.  He became one of us.  God became flesh and dwelt among us!  John 1: 11   He came unto his own, and his own received him not. 12   But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:

5. The second time he will come as the sovereign King of the universe.  Revelation 3:3  Remember therefore how thou hast received and heard, and hold fast, and repent. If therefore thou shalt not watch, I will come on thee as a thief, and thou shalt not know what hour I will come upon thee.

6. We know exactly when the second coming of Jesus Christ will occur:  At the end of the Tribulation Period.  His second coming WILL END the Tribulation period.  Mark 13: 24   But in those days, after that tribulation, the sun shall be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, 25   And the stars of heaven shall fall, and the powers that are in heaven shall be shaken. 26   And then shall they see the Son of man coming in the clouds with great power and glory.

7. We know that his second coming will begin the Millennial reign of Christ on the earth.  Upon his return he shall set up his kingdom to rule and reign on the earth for a thousand years.  Revelation2 0: 6   Blessed and holy is he that hath part in the first resurrection: on such the second death hath no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with him a thousand years.

8. His second coming will be visible and known to all mankind, for every eye shall see him!  It will not be a hidden event, known only to a select few. Revelation 1: 7   Behold, he cometh with clouds; and every eye shall see him, and they also which pierced him: and all kindreds of the earth shall wail because of him. Even so, Amen.

9. There will be many in the end times who claim to be the Christ.  Mark 13: 22   For false Christs and false prophets shall rise, and shall shew signs and wonders, to seduce, if it were possible, even the elect.

10. Many will be destroyed at his second coming.  2Thessalonians 2: 8   And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming: 9   Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, 10   And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved.  11   And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:  12   That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.
