There are over 1500 prophecies of Jesus' Second Coming recorded in the Bible. For every prophecy of His first coming mentioned in the Old Testament, there are eight predicting His Second Coming. The return of our Lord is mentioned once in every five verses in the New Testament. When Jesus returns every eye shall see Him. His return shall be like lightning flashing across the sky. It will be an audible event. The righteous dead will be resurrected and along with the righteous living caught up in the sky. God will clothe His people with immortality. His return shall be a glorious event. He comes with His reward. The unrighteous wicked fear His coming and cry for the rocks to fall upon them. The evil are purged out of His kingdom by fire and the righteous saved through all eternity. The righteous are delighted to see Him come. They joyfully exclaim "Lo, this is our God..." As King of Kings leading the armies of heaven, He returns as triumphant Lord. His coming is called the "Blessed Hope" of a lost mankind. Jesus' final invitation to prepare for His soon return.
