Jesus is Coming Again

“…Which also said, ‘ye men of Galilee, why stand ye gazing up into heaven? This same Jesus which is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as ye have seen Him go into heaven.’” (Acts 1:11)

Someone has said that there are three-hundred and eighteen references in the New Testament declaring the second coming of Jesus. Others have declared that there are more verses in the Old Testament referring to His second coming than there are concerning His first coming. I have not counted them, but I do know there are enough references in the Bible concerning the second coming of Christ to make any serious-minded person believe it.

Forty days after our Lord’s resurrection, when He ascended to heaven in a cloud, the disciples heard the reassuring words that the same Jesus is coming again. These are assuring words to His followers in all generations that this world is not all there is. He is coming again.

Jesus said, “Be ye also ready for in such an hour as you think not, the Son of man cometh.” (Matthew 24:44) Are you ready? Don’t put it off.
