"Second coming and more"
Did you know there is
not a single place in the Bible that speaks of the second coming? I looked
the other day, because that is what confuses a lot of people, His coming
secretly for us in the rapture, then His "second"
coming when the whole world sees Him in great power and
glory, when every knee shall bow. Nowhere does it refer to the second coming,
why? Because He is coming more than once!
As I write this I am reminded,
nowhere does it mention His "first advent" either. Why? Because He came
before!!!! He was in the burning bush, He was in the fiery furnace, He
was with the disciples in the flesh, after He rose from the dead was yet
another "coming", He was in the blinding light on the road to Damascus,
He will be coming for us as a thief in the night, He could very well be
coming in a second rapture sometime before the Day of Wrath begins, and
He will be coming in great majesty as the King of Kings and Lord of Lords!
So how many more times can you think of that He already came or promises
to come again? Think about that, because the very idea of His "second coming"
is a HUGE stumbling block to many people!!!
