    Prophecy and the Return of Christ

    About this ebook

    It is estimated that there are more than three hundred prophecies in the Bible concerning the first coming of Christ — and about eight times as many concerning His Second Coming. The New Testament mentions it at least 318 times in 210 chapters and there can be no doubt that saints throughout the ages have always "looked for His appearing."

    This is no new doctrine dreamed up by some feverish theological brain. Even that Old Testament saint, Enoch — just seven generations from Adam — looked way beyond his time and prophesied concerning the Second Coming of Christ. This godly man, who walked so close to the Lord that he just walked right into His Presence one day (Gen. 5:24), said: "Behold, the Lord comes with ten thousands of His saints” (Jude verse 14 KJV).
    The inspired Scriptures tell us that the Lord Jesus Christ will return personally. "This same Jesus” (Acts 1:11) will come again in a literal and visible manner.
    Genuine Christians will be the first to meet Him.

    "Prophecy and the Return of Christ" takes a closer look at some of these prophecies.

      What Is The GREAT DECEPTION In The Bible?

      Aug 27, 2021

      Usually, when people speak of the “great deception,” they refer to 2 Thessalonians 2:11, which predicts that God will, in an end-times judgement, send “a powerful delusion so that they will believe the lie.” This great deception is associated with th

      Dedication

      Dedicated to all who "wait for the blessed hope – the glorious appearing of our great God and Saviour,

      Jesus Christ." – Titus 2:13.

      Introduction

      THE LORD is coming at the appointed time. That is a definite and reliable fact. While the signs of the times are evident for all to see, many will be surprised and shocked at the suddenness of it all (2 Peter 3:10-12).

      Wise indeed is the individual who has an understanding of the times (1 Chronicles 12:32) and who is watching for His Return (Matthew 24:42).

      The question is – are we ready for the return of our Soon Coming King?

      May the challenge of Jesus Himself grip every heart:

      "Therefore you also be ready, for the Son of Man is
