- Ten truths you should know about Jesus' second coming.
We know that Jesus came first time as a lamb
but He is coming again as a lion.
He came first time to suffer but He is coming again to reign.
He came first time and there was no place for Him to be born
but He is coming second time on a white horse
and He is coming with His saints.
He is coming to establish His Kingdom.
And about His second coming, there are so many verses
in the Bible. And today, we are going to break few things down
for us and go verse by verse to explain some truths
concerning Jesus' second coming.
In Matthew 24:1 it says:
And disciples went down and verse 3 it says the following:
Which things?
The things concerning the destruction of Jerusalem.
And then they asked the second question:
So, pretty much the disciples are asking three questions.
When will the destruction of Jerusalem take place?
What will be the sign of Your coming?
And when will be the end of the age?
I already did a video on the end times,
the signs of the end times.
The answer to their first question, when will things be-
the destruction of Jerusalem?
Jesus explains in Matthew 25:15-20
and as well as verse 34.
And He says that within this generation, that these things
meaning the destruction of Jerusalem, will take place.
And we know that not long after that the Emperor came in
and he besieged Jerusalem and Jerusalem was conquered.
And the temple was destroyed,
and the words of Jesus were fulfilled.
What is the sign of Your coming?;
is another question that they asked.
And Jesus explains that a little bit later
in verse 30 of Matthew 24.
That the sign of Jesus' coming, not signs but the sign
is His public appearing.
The sign of Jesus' coming is His public appearing.
So there is not signs of His coming,
there is one sign of His coming. It's His public
meaning His coming will be public.
And as we are going to dive in right now,
and you are going to see a little bit more on that.
So let's dive in.
Number one is that the second coming of Jesus
will happen after the tribulation.
Matthew 24:29 says:
And then verse 30 talks about:
So after the great tribulation, Jesus will come again.
The second truth about the coming of Jesus is that
Jesus will appear in Heaven.
That is actually the sign of His coming.
The sign of the Son of Man will appear in heaven.
Meaning that Jesus' second coming will be visible.
Jesus' second coming will be public.
Jesus' second coming will be something that everyone
will be able to see, as it says in Matthew 24:30.
The third truth about the coming of Jesus - His second coming
Jesus' second coming will be as visible as lightning.
In Matthew 24:27 it says:
So, His first coming, it wasn't visible to the whole earth
in fact, it was pretty hidden. Shepherds, the wise men
you know, few people there and there
but His second coming will be completely different.
It will be as lightning.
When lightning flashes a lot of people can see that.
But the Bible says as from the east all the way to the west
everyone will be able to see Jesus coming. That is so exciting.
Truth number four, Jesus' second coming will cause
all the tribes to mourn. As I've read already.
There are other verses that talk about Israelites,
that they will weep and they will see Him,
Whom they rejected before.
And so, this second coming will be a glorious glorious event
that we all as Christians are looking forward to.
Truth number five, Jesus' second coming will be seen
and it will not be secret.
Again, the verse that I read, verse 30 is that
"they all will see," the Bible says.
"They will see the Son of Man." Meaning it will not be secret
It will not be mystical, meaning it will not be spiritual.
It will not be something in your heart.
It will be something you can see physically with your eyes.
Truth number six, the second coming of Jesus
will be on the clouds with power and glory.
as we read in verse 30 of Matthew 24.
The Son of Man coming on the clouds of heaven
with power and great glory.
In fact, it talks about-- remember when Jesus went up to heaven
and the angels came and they said the way you see Him
going to heaven is the same way He will come back.
Jesus went to heaven in the cloud.
He is coming back in the cloud.
People will see Him, as it also says in Revelation 1:7.
Number seven, at Jesus' second coming
there will be a sound of a trumpet.
So not only will it be like lightning,
not only will He appear from heaven,
not only that He will come after tribulation,
not only the tribes of the earth will mourn,
not only will it be seen,
it will be in glory, power and a cloud,
but there will be a sound accompanying His coming
as it says in 1 Thessalonians 4:16-17.
In 1 Corinthians 15:51-52:
So, at the coming of Jesus we see that there will be a sound;
a shout will come from heaven
and an archangel will sound a trumpet of God.
There will be a voice of an archangel
and as well as the trumpet sound.
So it's going to be glorious.
There will be crazy sounds taking place.
It will shake the whole earth.
I think it is going also to be live-streamed because
everybody is going to pull out their phones and start streaming
this amazing glorious event.
Truth number eight, Jesus is coming with His saints.
As we see in 1 Thessalonians 3:13
So Jesus is not just coming with the Heaven's army,
He is coming with His saints.
As we've read that we will meet Him in the air
and then we will come with Him.
Truth number nine, at Jesus' coming the dead will be raised
and we will be changed to meet Him in the air.
As I've read and I'm going to read this verse one more time.
1 Thessalonians 4:16-17
As well as 1 Corinthians 15:51-52
So, it's talking about the same event.
The trumpet will sound, the Lord will descend from heaven
this is not talking about a secret rapture
which I will have a separate video concerning that.
This is talking about the coming of Jesus.
And we don't see one reference in the Bible of Jesus'
two second comings. We see only one second coming of the Lord.
That's the one that He will come with the saints
who will meet Him in the air, to reign on the earth.
So, let me finish the verse.
1 Corinthians 15:51-52
And so, that tells us that at Jesus' second coming
the dead will be raised and we will be changed
to meet Him in the air.
And the truth number ten is that Jesus will arrive
on the mount of Olives in Jerusalem.
It's the same mountain that He left the earth from
after His resurrection
and it's the same mountain He is coming back to.
Zechariah 14:4
And so, we see that Jesus is coming back.
And these are the details that the Scripture provides us.
We don't know exactly how that will take place
but we know it will be visible,
we know it will be loud,
we know it will be triumphant.
We know it will be like a lightning.
We know that people will be able to see it.
We know the reaction of the earth is going to be
a lot of weeping, a lot crying.
And we know that we are coming together with the Lord.
Those who have died,
their spirits will reunite with their bodies;
and those of us who have not died,
we will meet the Lord in the air and come down with Him
to be on this earth.
I'm going to read you one of the most glorious verses
in the Scriptures about this time of Jesus' coming.
Revelation 19:11-16
Have you noticed armies, horses, people dressed in white
Jesus coming to reign, to rule,
to execute the wrath of God upon the enemies
the throne of Antichrist, the false prophet, the false teacher
and the whole system of godless world that turned
in rebellion against God and oppressed the humanity?
And this is going to be His coming.
It will not be a gentle Lamb.
It will be a fierce, bold, powerful, mighty Lion.
He won't be coming on a donkey, He will be coming on a horse.
He won't be coming defenseless, innocent, pure,
condemned to die. He will come as true, faithful
His clothes dipped in blood.
And He will come to crush the enemies
to crush the kingdom of darkness
and to reign, and to rule.
The word in the New Testament,
the most famous word for the coming of the Lord is Parousia.
Parousia is when an important person was coming to a city
a delegation from the city would go out to meet him
and then escort him on his way to the city.
This word is used 24 times in the New Testament.
Out these, six refers to the coming of individuals like
Stephanas, Fortunatus, and Achaicus and Titus.
The physical presence of Paul himself, this word is used for.
And the seventh use is to the coming of the lawless one
the Antichrist in 2 Thessalonians 2:9
The other seventeen uses of this word, parousia
is used for the second coming of the Lord Jesus Christ
except in one case which is referred to the coming
of the day of God, 2 Peter 3:12
And therefore, this word, parousia that is used 17 times
to describe the second coming of Jesus
the meaning of this word is that a famous person
would come to Rome and the citizens of Rome -a delegation
would come to meet him; and together with that famous
or that known person, would walk into Jerusalem.
And so, that is that word that is used in the New Testament
to describe the coming of the Lord Jesus Christ
and our meeting with Him in the air
and then coming together with Him.
Thank you so much for watching this video.
I hope that you were encouraged.
If you don't know Jesus Christ,
I invite you to place your trust in Him today.
He is coming soon.
If you don't believe it, look at your news.
Look at what is happening in this world.
This world is going crazier and crazier.
And all that we see today is just a rehearsal
it's a practice for the coming of the Antichrist
which will usher the great tribulation
and then the Lord Jesus Christ will come
and He will turn the kingdoms of this world
into the Kingdom of our God.
It's time to get right with God.
It's time to surrender your life. It's time to live for Jesus
and to get ready for His second return.

I have another video concerning rapture.
I know it's a very controversial topic
about when will rapture happen
and as you have already probably seen in this content
about my understanding of when this will happen,
and I know that you probably have a lot of questions.
So, don't hesitate. Watch the other video concerning rapture
where I dive in a little bit deeper about when will rapture
take place. And we will break down the Scriptures
and I hope that you will be encouraged and prepared
for what's to come.
