" At that time the sign of the Son of Man will appear in the sky, and the nation of the earth will mourn. They will see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of the sky with power and great glory" (Matt 24: 30).
Angel Foretold It
"They were looking intently into the sky as he was going, when suddenly two men dressed in white stood beside them. 'Men of Galilee,' they said, 'why do you stand there looking into the sky? This same Jesus, who has been taken from you into heaven will come back in the same way you have seen him go into heaven" (Acts 1:10,11)
The Early Christian Encouraged One Another With It
"For the Lord Himself will come down from heaven, with a loud command with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet call of God and the dead in Chirst will rise first. After that, we who are still alive and are left will be caught up with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air.....(1 Ths 4:16-18).
The Holy Spirit Bears Witness Of It
"But be patient, my brothers, as you wait for the Lord to come. Look at the farmer quietly waiting for his precious harvest. See how he has to possess his soul in patience till the land has had the early and late rains. So must you be patient, resting your hearts on the ultimate certainty. The Lord's coming is very near" (Jas 5:7.8)
Jesus will return unexpectedly:
- like the lightning (Matt 24:27)
- in the same wak that he has left (Acts 1:10,11)
- with great power and glory (Luke 21:27)
- in full view of all (Rev 1:7)
