The Second Coming

This is about the second coming of Christ. I’m Christianity one of the main doctrines is that one day Jesus will come back again. When do you think this will happen? I know people don’t know the exact year or anything like that, but when do you estamate that he will come back. Next 5-10 years? 10-20? 30-50? 100-200?

I don't try to speculate .... I live as thought He's coming back today..... but plan as though He's never coming back ...(in my lifetime)

I have access to Israel News and the past 2 months has been a hotbed between Iran demonstrating their Nuke ability to bomb Israel and now Israel performing preparation to go to War against Iran.

The Issue is that Biden and Putin have claimed if this happens, it will lead to World War.

World War, or the Threat of World War, will no doubt present its opportunity for Peace Talks.

One Problem, and it is the Same Problem for both Iran and Israel, [[WHO]] is the [[ONLY ONE]] to pull off a Peace Treaty between these Two Enemies?

Below, is an Article from January 21st.

That's how recent and close we are to possible WWIII!


Report: Israeli fighter jets, refueling planes hold massive drill aimed at Tehran

Maneuvers seen as intended to plan for strike on Iran, Saudi-owned Elaph claims

Boeing 707 and F-15 demonstrate mid-air refueling

Israeli fighter jets carried out a large drill over the Mediterranean that included practicing mid-air refueling, according to a report in a Saudi-run news outlet Thursday.

We should not speculate about the date. But world events are quickly leading up to the reign of the Antichrist. And that ties in directly with the Second Coming of Christ. For all we know it could happen within the next 50 years.

I'm willing to go out on a limb and say within 5-10 years and the tribulation to start this fall.

In this generation.Sooner than most people think is my guess.All's I know is that people in their 60's right now will live to see it.If they don't die a natural death.

I’m 15, so you think I’ll see him come down? I’m not sure if I want to. I have so much I gotta do here before he comes. And it’ll be scary. The world will go completely down the drain, way farther than now, and everyone will think it’s ok.

Yeah.Don't worry about the things you wanted to do.God's placed you here at the end of this age.

The signs we are given in the bible to watch for do not provide the amount of time but there is something which will be specific and will give us an exact amount of time.

Mat 24:4 And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you.
Mat 24:5 For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many.
Mat 24:6 And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet.
Mat 24:7 For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places.
Mat 24:8 All these are the beginning of sorrows.

These are signs that will precede the Great Tribulation but are not part of it.

Mat 24:9 Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name's sake.
Mat 24:10 And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another.
Mat 24:11 And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many.
Mat 24:12 And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.
Mat 24:13 But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.
Mat 24:14 And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.

These are events that take place in the Great Tribulation with the end of it mentioned in the last verse. Christ will now speak of how begins:

Mat 24:15 When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand)
Mat 24:16 Then let them which be in Judaea flee into the mountains:
Mat 24:17 Let him which is on the housetop not come down to take any thing out of his house:
Mat 24:18 Neither let him which is in the field return back to take his clothes.
Mat 24:19 And woe unto them that are with child, and to them that give suck in those days!
Mat 24:20 But pray ye that your flight be not in the winter, neither on the sabbath day:
Mat 24:21 For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be.
Mat 24:22 And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect's sake those days shall be shortened.
Mat 24:23 Then if any man shall say unto you, Lo, here is Christ, or there; believe it not.
Mat 24:24 For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect.
Mat 24:25 Behold, I have told you before.
Mat 24:26 Wherefore if they shall say unto you, Behold, he is in the desert; go not forth: behold, he is in the secret chambers; believe it not.

Here Christ tells us how the Great Tribulation begins, with the appearance of the abomination of desolation. This will be visually seen, and there will be a standing where standing should not take place. There are many interpretations of this but IMO it is the person we call antichrist or man of sin or false god and false christ. It's someone who will be the leader of the entire world. He will claim to be God and he will be able to perform miracles which will cause most people to believe he is a God and worship him.

Revelation gives us specific amounts of time:

Rev 13:1 And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the name of blasphemy.
Rev 13:2 And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard, and his feet were as the feet of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion: and the dragon gave him his power, and his seat, and great authority.
Rev 13:3 And I saw one of his heads as it were wounded to death; and his deadly wound was healed: and all the world wondered after the beast.
Rev 13:4 And they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto the beast: and they worshipped the beast, saying, Who is like unto the beast? who is able to make war with him?
Rev 13:5 And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies; and power was given unto him to continue forty and two months.
Rev 13:6 And he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God, to blaspheme his name, and his tabernacle, and them that dwell in heaven.
Rev 13:7 And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations.
Rev 13:8 And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.
Rev 13:9 If any man have an ear, let him hear.
Rev 13:10 He that leadeth into captivity shall go into captivity: he that killeth with the sword must be killed with the sword. Here is the patience and the faith of the saints.
Rev 13:11 And I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon.
Rev 13:12 And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed.
Rev 13:13 And he doeth great wonders, so that he maketh fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men,
Rev 13:14 And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by the means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live.
Rev 13:15 And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed.
Rev 13:16 And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads:
Rev 13:17 And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.
Rev 13:18 Here is wisdom. Let him that hath understanding count the number of the beast: for it is the number of a man; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six.

One of these two beasts is the antichrist. They will rise at nearly the same time. IMO one rises publicly while the other is hidden for a short time but still is there behind the scenes. The first beast being able to continue for 42 months means that's the full length of the Great Tribulation. The second beast will no longer have global rule after 42 months also but the text doesn't address that but I am certain the 42 month time limit applies equally to both beasts.

So, when one power or government or military is ruling the world and it has someone God-like, then that 42 month clock starts. It might be hard for any of us to pin-point the very first day the clock starts but we will know it started fairly soon because it will very quickly be obvious. One might recognize all this on the beast's first day in power, others might not realize it for another day or two. It depends on the person and their access to global news. If you are in a bunker and can't get any news, then it will be harder to know when the 42 months started.

There another event that is even more precise:

Rev 11:7 And when they shall have finished their testimony, the beast that ascendeth out of the bottomless pit shall make war against them, and shall overcome them, and kill them.
Rev 11:8 And their dead bodies shall lie in the street of the great city, which spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt, where also our Lord was crucified.
Rev 11:9 And they of the people and kindreds and tongues and nations shall see their dead bodies three days and an half, and shall not suffer their dead bodies to be put in graves.
Rev 11:10 And they that dwell upon the earth shall rejoice over them, and make merry, and shall send gifts one to another; because these two prophets tormented them that dwelt on the earth.
Rev 11:11 And after three days and an half the Spirit of life from God entered into them, and they stood upon their feet; and great fear fell upon them which saw them.
Rev 11:12 And they heard a great voice from heaven saying unto them, Come up hither. And they ascended up to heaven in a cloud; and their enemies beheld them.
Rev 11:13 And the same hour was there a great earthquake, and the tenth part of the city fell, and in the earthquake were slain of men seven thousand: and the remnant were affrighted, and gave glory to the God of heaven.
Rev 11:14 The second woe is past; and, behold, the third woe cometh quickly.

When these two prophets come back to life and ascend into heaven, that will be global news and the entire world will panic because it will be evidence the one they thought was God this entire time was not God because only a God can resurrect this false god's enemies. When they are first killed, then we Christians will know Christ will return at the 7th trump which is 3.5 days after the two are slain.

So, when they ascend into heaven, the 3rd woe or 7th trump comes quickly. We don't know how much time that is but IMO it is the same day, likely within an hour or less.

So why does you avatar show someone who is 150? Should we call it premature ageing and leave it at that?

we only have our lifetime to worry about brother . The point is no one knows or can know but it could always be tomorrow or a thousand years but we only have as long as we live to worry for.

the walk is one day at a time when we find our stride. Live today like it matters knowing Jesus could call You home tomorrow. So do Good and when you’ve done wrong learn to repent and get it out in the open between you and the lord.

but every day is tough and hard enough to walk upright
